I appreciate his support for a pathway to legalization for the undocumented but to be honest, speeches are just not working for me, sorry.

If he made more and longer appearances around Lousiana during the oil spill and pushed scientists to help with the effort then people might listen to him better, as well as speaking in the senate when they were considering the DoD bill with the DADT and the DA attached then people might have a better view on him and listen to what he has to say more favorably. What I don't get, and this was also present with Bush, is how presidents decide to spend so much time vacationing, and playing around, specially when there is a war elsewhere and their policies are not passing, I would think they would work harder under such circumstances. |

I know it's hard to get this country back on its feet in two years but...maybe he can step away from the spotlight as well? Because I see him in all these shows and magazines, but I never hear anything about any strategies, to either "close the borders" or for some sort of "legalization."
