Ok, so you wanted to believe things would be diffrent and that Obama was going to be the Messiah. Turns out you ended up feeling jipped by your decision so one could say you made a bad decision based on assumptions of what you thought would be.. This shows you don't think things through and believe promises which will likely not happen..

So now we have another candidate promising to be diffrent and here we are again, you are falling for the same thing under a new name. This time with trump..


Now when I voted for Obama, twice, I never felt jipped. I'm confident in my decision that he was the best choice. While he's disappointed me on some things I don't feel my vote was wasted therefore I made a good choice based off my expectations..

See I didn't believe in Jesus messiah bs, I instead looked at reality and could easily see the 2 Republican contenders would have been disasters for this country.. Just like Trump would be. My only expectations for Obama was to get us out of Iraq and Afghan and not start a war with someone else.. I knew the economy would do its thing and Obama not only got us out of both wars he got bin Ladden, got us Healthcare, didn't destroy the economy and for the most part has kept us out of any real conflicts.. I got more than I voted for..
