    I know this is a hip hop forum and most people support Obama because he was the first black president. Which is a reason to respect him. I wonder what he has done for the black community though? The black lives matter movement has mostly been about violence and I feel like he should of stepped up for his people and told them it was foolish. He has done nothing to combat black on black crime which is the black community's biggest issue, not police brutality. (I would show facts that more whites are abused but it will just be ignored). Not trying to have a race debate though. I just think African Americans need a leader right now and he failed to step up or even care.

    I wanna question anyone who thinks this man has been a great president or even a good one. His approval rating is averaging at 47% which is the worst since 1937 (Bush was 49%). He has added more debt then any other president. I know he came into a s-----y situation but that excuse isn't valid anymore when he made things even worse. He has been so bad its almost like hes purposely destroying this country. He has never been a leader and he clearly had no idea what to do when he became President.. What has he done? Oh, you're living comfortably? What about our children's future? Its time we face reality and admit he had no business being President and hes leaving us a country that is worse then ever. People call me stupid for supporting Donald Trump, yet these same people support a guy who majority of Americans will say hes the worst President we have ever had.

    The lowest average approval rating since 1937 is totally false, you really thought Franklin D Roosevelt (one of the GOAT presidents) had the lowest in the last 75 years? His average was 63%

    G.W. Bush's approval rating was only 25% in 2008 and he had the highest disapproval of 71%

    Whats stupid? Is that all you people can say? Please sum up how Obama is a great president? How am I a troll when majority of Americans agree he sucks? The only people see support him is people on this forum or twitter. He's horrible.

    He's an average president who could have been more of that. But I'd say as of now Congress is much worse than Obama.

    Hes a puppet at the end of the day. It just scares me that people think he is doing anything good for this country.

    Well none of these are under Obama, so I don't see why any of these are relevant to the topic at hand. And those first 6 we're during the Cold War, when the threat of nuclear warfare was very real.

    Yeah but there's over 50,000 American military personnel in Germany, more than any other country

    Germany is also. the heart of NATO - while NATO's headquarters is in Belgium, it's operational center is (and has always been) in Germany. Most NATO forces are based in Germany and almost all NATO operations originate from Germany.

    I don't think a single person in here has said he is a good president. He isn't a bad president either, just average.

    Average = bad in 2015. Especially since he promised so much. What has he done for black people?

    I wouldn't say @Batman's post isn't justification, just possible reasoning.
