Just sometimes politicians tell the truth, one can argue that below is really the view of President Obama, what ever his public statements Obama wants a second term, one term failures never get a good press, Ford, Carter, Bush 41, at the end of the day a President wants a second term, it can be argued that it can be a disaster in some respects, Nixon, Clinton are an examples of that Watergate and Impeachment, even the beloved Ronald Reagan had problems with Iran - Contra and Bush 43 had Iraq. It can be postulated that Obama wants the Congress to dump health care reform without his prints on the dispatch of the Bill. A couple of days ago President Obama stated the following, " So there's a lot of information out there that people understandably are concerned about. And that's why I think it's very important for us to have a methodical, open process over the next several weeks, and then let's go ahead and make a decision. And it may be that -- you know, if Congress decides -- if Congress decides we're not going to do it, even after all the facts are laid out, all the options are clear, then the American people can make a judgment as to whether this Congress has done the right thing for them or not. And that's how democracy works. There will be elections coming up and they'll be able to make a determination and register their concerns one way or the other during election time. All right?.." In other words please take this problem away from the Oval, if you pass this Bill Obama will have to sign it in to law, then defend the tax hikes and making people buy health care insurance for the next eight months. After the Mid Term Congressional Elections he will find that Republicans have taken over the House and Senate and will make it their business to repeal the very Act that Obama has just signed. The Obama Presidency would then be forced to move to the centre or even centre right, thus my prediction that Obama will not seek a second term or will lose big in 2012.
