President Obama has said that our aspirations should be realistic.

What we want to achieve is Afghanistan's capacity to secure and govern itself. ↗

The people who voted for President Obama are just beginning to wake up to exactly what they brought in. The 'change' they envisioned is not the 'change' they have gotten. ↗

President Obama chose politics over leadership. 'Hope' and 'Change' have become bait-and-switch. ↗

My parents started a business out of the living room of our home and, 30-plus years later, it was a multimillion dollar company. So, President Obama, with all due respect, don't tell me that my parents didn't build their business. ↗
