GW and his neocons raised a lot of concerns about what we expect from our president. He fell short of those expectations many times. Many of us fear our government more since his being in office, many of us have lost a lot from his being in office, and many of us are embarrassed at having elected him.

So, somebody please remind me why Obama was seen as such a great change for the better.
