Two-thirds
of likely voters say President Obama has kept his 2008 campaign promise
to change America — but it’s changed for the worse,according to a
sizable majority.
A new poll for The Hill
found 56 percent of likely voters believe Obama’s first term has
transformed the nation in a negative way,compared to 35 percent who
believe the country has changed for the better under his leadership.
The
results signal broad voter unease with the direction the nation has
taken under Obama’s leadership and present a major challenge for the
incumbent Democrat as he seeks reelection this fall.
Conducted for
The Hill by Pulse Opinion Research,the poll comes in the wake of last
month’s Supreme Court decision that upheld the primary elements of
Obama’s signature healthcare legislation.
It
found 68 percent of likely voters — regardless of whether they approve
or disapprove of Obama — believe the president has substantially
transformed the country since his 2009 inauguration.

An election for President and Commander in Chief of the Military must strive to be above reproach. Our public institutions must give the public confidence that a presidential candidate has complied with the election process that is prescribed by our Constitution and laws. It is only after a presidential candidate satisfies the rules of such a process that he/she can expect members of the public, regardless of their party affiliations, to give him/her the respect that the Office of President so much deserves.
