US President Barack Obama's administration is coping with underwhelming performance on various fronts according to officials cited in the New York Times on Friday, who suggested he may replace some senior administration officials - including US Secretary of State John Kerry.

So long as Valerie Jarrett remains in the West Wing then Obama have shuffle the deck chairs all he wants and the administration will remain as inept as ever.
