Michael Jamesprevent this from occurring in the future Bernardo SmithMaybe... but he is our leader. He should have shown more of a presence in the situation, at least been more vocal in his repremand of BP. I know this is mere optics and shouldn't matter, but it would've given the people a sense of action. He could've also done more for the fisherman that lost jobs Michael JamesIn parliamentary democracies it is the President's only job to be the elder states man and is the face for the nation. He/she would handle situations such as the oil spill. The prime minister keeps working and doing government work while not being distracted from situations he has no power to change Michael JamesSince we have a representative democracy our President does the job of both prime minister and president in parliamentary democracies.

Let’s just say that if a hurricane were to hit a major city tomorrow, stranding thousands in a sports stadium, the Obama Administration would not wait 5 days to bring them water. _prashantsharmaYour President visited the site around four times and raises enough money. but here in India prime minister Man Mohan Singh have no time even to talk to the nation through media. He last address to the nation after completing one year as Govt. Next time after two years Sure. PhilBObama can only rely on the professionals and solid information to make learned decisions. This is a project for professionals, not politicians. Obama must demand full public disclosure of the facts from BP. The money for the victims who lost their careers needs to be expedited. ronniepatrickObama did not cause this terrible problem. The president did what he could do until help came and that is just what happened. You fools out there do not blame your President for it is BP that should take the blame and the lead to get it done. I am proud of Obama and what he has done. |

I voted fair because there wasn't really much he could do. People whine too much in this country and want to blame him for not being empathetic enough. Does empathy solve the problem? All he could do is wait for someone to come with a solution. I think it is more fair to judge him on what he does to
