...Presidents aloof and imperial style of leadership, and a growing perception that he is out of touch with ordinary Americans, especially at a time of significant economic pain...
...Barack Obamas striking absence of natural leadership ability (and blatant lack of experience) has played a big part in undermining his credibility...
Read all ten reasons. They're succinct and well documented.
O was nothing more than an ice sculpture that melts by the time the party is over.
Good article.
I think one of the biggest reasons he is nosediving is that he lied.
He ran as a moderate and is ramming through his real agenda - big government, nanny-state socialism.
A.V.P. Always Voting Present
These 10 points are spot-on.
Nile Gardiner succinctly sums up the failed Obama presidency. I couldn’t add a thing. A definite ‘Must Read’ for all Americans.
Feels like 18 years.
Even Emperor Obama has now noticed he has no clothes. His response? "Bush stole my clothes".
“10. Obama doesnt believe in American greatness”
Not only that, he outright hates America.
Obama thinks he has only one thing going for him - he is not Bush.
All he cares about is irreparably destroying everything the United States has stood for and what made it exceptional in world history.
If he "succeeds" in fulfilling the "Dreams of his Father", a Communist Muslim, he'll believe he was successful.
As Limbaugh so controversially noted early in the Obama Regime's reign: Success for the Obama Administration is the destruction of the United States.
Why would any true American wish success for anyone with the same objectives of those we've fought wars to resist in the past?
I agree, it is an excellent article. One interesting point for me: I wonder if there have been laundered funds going into MSM coffers. Their ratings have been atrocious and job cuts/profit reports don’t reflect the dire straits they must sure be financially. Perhaps the first issue for an incoming Administration would be to find and cut the financial sources for Obama-friendly media. Be nice if we could document what’s going on now, too.
Obama’s decline is simply because America has discovered who Obama really is, his self created image has not been sustainable, despite an election campaign that neve ended:

Just glancing at the ten items and not reading the details (yet) it seems that this man has made some very astute observations.
Articles such as this miss the point entirely because the writers start off with a false assumption—that Obama is just like any other politician, and wants to gain control of the government and make changes, but not so massive ones that he can’t get re-elected and continue to hold power.
I think Obama is essentially a very simple and lazy person. He has a simple idea of what he wants to do—jam up the works in DC so badly that the only way for the nation to recover is to make sweeping changes that will lead to more government control over the individual, who is so stupid that he needs the government to get his life in order.
He sees what he’s done already and figures he’s done more than any other ‘progressive’ could do in TWO terms. He might want to be re-elected, he might not, but I don’t think it burns in him. I think he could take it or leave it, because he knows for the rest of his life he will be considered a historic figure, will get huge ‘fees’ for whatever he does next, and the remainder of his days will be ones of leisure, where his bank account will grow and he will be surrounded only by people who say he’s great.
He’s just not presidential material. All he knew how to do was lecture. He’d have probably made a pretty good ambassador, but... his ambition exceeded his ability. He should have stuck with lecturing at the law school.
In the story something is noted about the “left wing of the Democratic Party.” Now, I ask you, is there any other wing?
Excellent article!....An honest piece of reporting you will never see in America!
This article is as close to truth as one can be, and Conservative journalists in US should pay attention that once you take histrionics out, the article actually becomes more effective.
However, still not enough reasons given for Obama’s well deserved demise.
Say what you will, but Obama’s victory was big and he had a mandate - reform wallstreet/banking-institutions/lobbyist-influence/End-wars/Prevent-Outsourcing/change-the-Darth-Wader-type-image-of-US
He sold out on each and every issue, except one could argue that people around the world may have softened their image of US, even if it benefits of which are not tangible.
Obama put the EXACT same crew that is RESPONSIBLE for defrauding and Bankrupting our nation, in charge of its treasury. He has signed even more international agreements continued to promote the NWO agenda and betrayed American workers. He is the WEAKEST President in History. No other President has been so submissive to Banking interests.
To make long story short, other than socialist health-care to please his extereme left and socialist bankers (Yes SOCIALIST BANKERS), he has betrayed everyone from either side of the political spectrum. He has turned over our sovereignty to Central bankers.
#11 He is the poster child for why affirmative action is an overwhelming failure. The dude is just not very smart.
