actually you can look up youtube videos of people from literally ALL over the WORLD cheering in huge crowds when he got elected.. i think it was actually pretty big for the world.. but you would have to think america is important or something to the world. i dont know, but on that fact i agree with MM.

Etson- You may not agree with MM, but no need to get offensive about it.You obviously don’t like Obama- but you let your political stance color your perceptions- much more so than MM does.

OMG! That’s a really long time to be out of work, especially for someone accustomed to having gainful employment.

I have a friend who is about to lose her home because she has not been able to find a job. The only entitlement she gets is about $90 in EBT every month. She knows she can’t save her house so she has been cleaning homes, running errands, and what every misc things she can find just to keep her cell phone on (call for job interviews) and keep ConEd and Keyspan on. I’ve never seen her so broken in the years that I’ve known her.
