    Let's keep this serious. I neither like nor dislike Obama. I did not vote for him in 2008 or 2012. His terms have been alright to me though.

    I'm just wondering what your individual reasons are for not liking Obama.

    Insight would be great.

    Why do you dislike Obama?

    I dislike him because he's a loving father and loyal husband.

    Because he's much, much smarter than I am and ever will be, even though I make it a point to spend a couple hours every day engaged in autodidactism.

    Because I will never live up to his integrity and dignity.

    Because he has a better jumper than I do and can go left--actually, it's his dominant hand. But I'm sure he's ambidextrous.

    He's taller and more good looking than I am. He was raised poor, by a single mother, as I was, but has reached to top of his profession . . . still working on that one.

    Never mind. He's awesome.

    I like him, he seems like a cool dude.

    I just think that he is wrong on not calling Islamist terror what it is and that his foreign policy decisions have been pretty disastrous.

    Now, DudeWah, that I have answered your question, why don't you go back to the other thread and apologize for making up lies.

    On a personal level, I don't have a strong opinion. Seems like a good guy. In retrospect, so did George W. Bush.

    Are you asking about why people dislike Obama personally, or dislike his presidency?

    Personally his foreigner policy what I dislike : I felt he could did seething to help Syrian people in similar fashion to what Clinton did to Bosnian, make a posit e impact to fix what previous administration ruined. He could pushed peace process in Palestine ,he had a momentum and high expectations that came short.

    As of his local policy , he tried his best, his out reaching and effort to compromise and to be liked surprisingly negatively weaken him....but after all he is very likeable .

    Why others may dislike him I think people in general likes alpha male personally without admitting it , to be kicked from behind so they moves forward


    Irony

    For the same exact reason I dislike you. You both are two peas in a pod, and a couple of nimrods.

    Why would I be asking personally? None of us know Obama. That would be a weird thing to ask.

    Im genuinely interested as to the reasons people dislike his presidency and his actions (on a political level).

    That's not very benevolent of you.

    I'm pretty much a moderate - left leaning on some things, right leaning on others - so I do not dislike the guy at all.

    I wish he had 8 years with a more amenable Legislative Branch, we may have actually been able to get some helpful things done.

    I've seen firsthand what blacks contribute to their communities. They would much rather take than giveback. Just like our current president.

    I'm neutral when it comes to him, I feel like he had the potential to do a lot more but have settled for what he at least tried to acheive given the gridlock posed by the GOP.

    Everybody is entitled to an opinion, if you dislike him, that's your right, i just have an issue with the conspiracy theorists. Its the type of people that think he is an undercover, gay muslim, atheist, 2nd coming of antichrist (cml-style). Or the people that say it was his duty to relieve race tensions given his AA heritage. That's a racist red flag right there. Why is it just the job of a black president to unite everybody---shouldn't that be everybody's goal regardless of race?


    As you dig a bit further you will find that its because he's a black liberal. If he was conservative, a lot of the people with the previously mentioned opinion could at least pass him off as a token guy.

    You need to walk away from this for a bit and contemplate things.
