The original Obama movement was so rapturous that stating the obvious you can't eat hope and the rhetoric was mostly empty seemed small-minded and a cynical snub to those people who clearly felt they were about to see real change, especially black voters who were feeling the kind of fierce emotions that most of us could never understand.
"We are the ones we've been waiting for," he'd tell the crowds. Whatever that meant, it sounded good.
Today, though, Obama must must at least be contemplating the possibility that he has failed.
Six years after he assumed power, nearly 120 of his promises remain unfulfilled, according to the Pulitzer-prize-winning website Politifact.

Me, too....................
He fancies himself as Lincoln and the Emancipation Proclamation that was also illegal.
He was so tightly focused, he forgot about Boothe
I disagree, he is picking up stream and heading to full blown dictator status. He just getting started.
You can say what you want, Obama did not fail, he wanted to be a king and has reigned for six years and most likely will for another two.
He is the one laughing all the way to the bank.
Is “My American Cousin” playing at Ford’s?
What? The most unqualified, unprepared bastard ever to set foot in the white hut and who promised [socialist] utopia can't figure things out? Amazing! /sarc
Yeah, by our standards, but by his standards it’s a huge, in-progress success. Obamacare, amnesty, the Muslim Brotherhood and Iran, and he’s just warming up.
As bad as Obama has been, it isn’t over yet.
There is little chance he will be removed from office, no chance he will resign. Pubs don’t have the numbers in the Senate to override his vetoes, & Congress can do NOTHING to stop his executive orders.
Given that his time in office has done untold damage to our economy, race & foreign relations, 2 more years of the same will do irreversible damage to our nation & the world.
Anybody who thinks the November 4th shellacking will “moderate” Obama is still living a delusion.
Did anyone read this article?
Obama is not leftist enough in action to suit Canadian journalist

God help us....
What a laugh.
Obama has gotten everything he wanted and more.
His Presidency might be over, whatever that means, but he isn’t suffering any consequences from it.
I’m sure heap White Squaw Lieawatha Warren is taking notes so she doesn’t make the same mistakes during her Administration.
But hey, if people get warm and fuzzy thinking Obama is in big trouble, enjoy the fantasy.
Just my $ .02, your mileage may vary.
Besides our Country he has severely tarnished a race beyond what my deceased relatives warned me what would be possible. Short of the exceptional blacks I met in service I respect but one - Col. Allen West. The RKBA even ruins Dr. Carson as presidential material.
Thanks for all the responses.
