The Obama Administration continues to talk about the 'policies of the past' and insist that a return to those policies will lead to disaster.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The Obama foreign policy, in broad strokes, has been a disaster.
I think that President Obama is beginning to realize that a lot of his plans have backfired.
It isn't just that Obama's policies have failed; it's that he has essentially given up and is asking us to accept a lesser America going forward, as if resigned to the fatalistic belief that America has begun an inevitable and unavoidable decline.
Obamacare's a disaster. But the answer is not to simply return to the way things were before. The answer is to repeal and replace Obamacare with modern, market-centered reforms.
It is a fact that governments tend to put in place policies and strategies in response to current scenarios.
We don't want to go back to the same policies and the same practices that drove our economy into a ditch, that punished the middle class, and that led us to this catastrophe. We have to keep moving forward.
President Obama's policies have been categorical failures for our country.
President Obama has only had two major policy victories during his tenure: the stimulus package and Obamacare. Both are massively unpopular. The stimulus package launched the Tea Party movement. Obamacare led to the Republican wipeout of 2010.
Barack Obama has talked a lot about changing the way America relates to the world, and few areas are as ripe for reform as our policies on foreign aid.
Those who cannot remember the past are condemned, it seems, to direct the Middle East policy of the Obama administration.
