Yeah I just heard. They're chanting racial slurs towards the president and AAs. The fools. They are the fattest state in the US. They are the poorest state in the US. They are the third LEAST EDUCATED state in the US. Their infant mortality rate is HIGHER than that of Botswana. Agberos.

Obama has a lot of professors of economics around him. These professors were around even during bush administration. If textbook economics could solve things, America economy and that of Greece, Spain and Italy would have been sorted easily in the last four years. So with due respect, your economics degree is just a qualification for getting a paying job.

You must study patterns of history, economics, social systems and cultural patterns for you to correctly predict the economy of nations. The dot com era saw people loose billions by following the advise of economists and political commentators. I think you are wrong to say that his policies would have been disastrous. Not to say is would have solved everything, but it would have been better than a handout economic policy. To grow the economy, the overall input and output of the participating human capacity must increase and improve. America is falling because America is carrying too many dead weights. And it will get worse in the next few years. There is a big recession coming

So did President Bush. Obama had a lot of mess to clean up after taking office and while the country would have loved to have had the job rise percentage much higher than promised there was a rise nonetheless. Its a step by step process and living up to at least a quarter to what was promised Obama still did a good job. The fear now is the tax policy at the end of the year. If Romney was president there would have been a truckload of shit because Romney has no clear policy or plan on how to cut taxes. He just says that he will do it but doesn't say how. I would like to know if you have the answer cos that will bigger than solving String Theory.
Economists are not to blame for the dot com crash and don't forget that the reason the recorded 'billions' were lost is because people got paid back in cash. Economic models are not 100% but we need to be able to analyse and make predictions on what certain actions will result in. Obama's fiscal policy is on point and has always been ahead of Romney on that issue. Stop looking for causations where they don't exist.

Obama is very much aware on what the country needs and that the problem at the moment is not too much government, but insufficient demand that if treated will lead to more jobs, income and output. Yes I know he is spending too much money but Romney doesn't want to spend. If Obama's plans fail the problems faced will be much less than if Romney's plans fail. I choose the lesser of both evil.

I read an article by Keith Boykin on 50 reasons to vote for Obama and it made sense. I couldn't find 20 reasons to vote for Romney. IMO case closed.

Thank God obama won. I expect Femi Fani-Kayode to commit suicide now since he didn't want him to win. A stupid man like Femi Fani-Kayode that his farther was an outcast in Yoruba land has the guts to condemn an American President and a presidential candidate. He thought Romney will appoint him as presidential spokesman so that he can be insulting Bill Clinton, George Bush etc as he did for Wole Soyinka, Abraham Adesanya, Atiku etc. A thief that stole aviation money and standing trial in the law court has the guts to write about a respected Obama of the world.

It is only in Nigeria that his kind can be walking the street free. Anyway, soon he will land in the prison.

Congratulations Brack Obama

I have had this argument with some friends several times. The democrats have never being pro blacks. They have always been and will remain anitblacks. Right from tje formation of the kkk to their insistence on slavery and racial segregation, they have never favoured the black man. Some argue that they have sinced changed but I completely disagree. They will never change. They are only changing strategy to win votes. They will also use the latino the way they are using blacks. Obama is a white man in black skin

Not everyone can see what you and other well informed people can see.

I went to a bar to chill out in downtown Abuja. Saw group of guys arguing and about to fight on behalf of Obama. I asked them if they can name at least two of Obama's policies, they couldn't.

They are deceived by his fake smiles and well crafted and praticed speech. When a man speaketh from his heart, you can tell.

These so called blue democrats do not dine and wine with the blacks in real terms. In fact, they live far away from them in their secluded neighbourhoods. Miles away from reality; if i may use the words of bob marley.

If you were to mistakenly enter these neighbourhoods as a man of colour, you are seen as a suspect in today's liberal states of America.

They use minorities to further their agendas. Them Republicans say things as they are, just that their approach can be quite dogmatic.

But i have more respect for a man who tells me where he stands even if he is wrong, then one who comes up like an angel and he is nothing but a hypocrite.

The best part of the election, is that is that it's over!!

Congress consists of both the Senate and the House.
