Obama Supporters - Serious Question

[gixxerboy1]

1. National Debt: will hit $16 trillion sometime today. More than $5 trillion in less than 4yrs. There is alot that effected that. Less people working so less people paying taxes. More people on government assistance like unemployment and food stamps. The Bush tax rates. Still spending a fortune on wars.

2. Unemployment: hasn't gone down since he took office. In fact, it's up 1% since he took office. Obviously, that's not a large increase but it still hasn't gone down.
Yes if you look at the day he went into office. But that was just the start of the huge hit. People where loosing there jobs left and right when he took office. He didnt create the mess. If you compare the numbers from 2 years ago to now its improved.

3. Housing Prices: the average value of a home in the U.S. has decreased by 40% in the last 4yrs. I dont think houses were worth what they were selling for 5-8 years ago. they where way over inflated. I agree there were other issues too.

4. Average Household Income: decreased by almost $5,000According to the census bureau in 2010 the median income was higher then 2006 numbers.

5. Value of U.S. Dollar: down 20% in the last four years.

Forget all the hate speech against Romney. That doesn't answer the question. I'm not looking for stuff like "well Romney won't show his tax returns" or "I think Obama is better because he loves women and gays more." All of that is meaningless compared to the numbers above. Someone explain to me how they can support Obama being reelected with numbers like these?

I'm not saying i like Obama. But you can just look at the day he took office and todays numbers to compare. We were in a free fall when he took office. It feel for months before starting to turn around. So is today better then the day he took office maybe not. Is it better then the numbers from this time 2 years ago yes.

And the president can only do so much with out the senate or house going along.
If asked would i want Obama to be president again i might say no. But since its a choice between Obama or Romney, i'd take Obama.
