I can't help it, but this man inspires me and gives me hope this country is heading in the right direction.

Of course, I was really on his side when I heard an author guest on CurrentTV say that President Obama was disrespected by the brass in the Pentagon, but when he fired General McChrystal, he immediately gained the upperhand and respect in the Pentagon.

I really believe President Obama is going to be a different president in his second term. He's going to bring this country back in ways we can't yet see. I wish there weren't any term limits on the presidency, but since we do I hope he will be the one to pick his successor - and although I love Joe, I hope it ain't him.
