Now that’s what I’m talking about! Yes We Must. Why? Because no one else can, and no one else will. To judge Obama solely on the bills he has passed in the last 3 1/2 years is not a complete judgement. Read his books, look at his history as an elected official, and you will realize he is a committed Democrat on all the issues. Rome wasn’t built in a day, and we can’t expect miracles from our President.

I trust that Obama will work as hard as he possibly can during his second term to drive through initiatives that matter. I especially hope for a focus on the issues that weren’t a main focus during the first term: energy policy, immigration reform, etc.
