On 60 Minutes Sunday, Barack Obama told Steve Kroft fixing America’s economy was going to take more than one term, more than his second term if he is re-elected — in fact, it is “probably going to take more than one president.”
In essence, the president of hope and change told the American people their country is wrecked until at least 2017.
Giving his latest excuse about why the economy has not improved yet, Obama said:
Reversing structural problems in our economy that have been building up for two decades, that was going to take time. It was going to take more than a year. It was going to take more than two years. It was going to take more than one term. Probably takes more than one president. (Emphasis added.)
Kroft led into the question by asking, “Did you overpromise?” Obama replied, “I didn’t overpromise.”
Really? This is the same man who said on the campaign trail:
[I]f we are willing to work for it, and fight for it, and believe in it, then I am absolutely certain that generations from now, we will be able to look back and tell our children that this was the moment when we began to provide care for the sick and good jobs to the jobless; this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal; this was the moment when we ended a war and secured our nation and restored our image as the last, best hope on earth. This was the moment—this was the time—when we came together to remake this great nation so that it may always reflect our very best selves and our highest ideals.
That sounds pretty sober and mundane.
Obama’s only virtue is that he has told the truth. If he is re-elected, his policies will continue to depress the economy and ground our citizens into penury. The U.S. credit downgrade could last until 2029, and the nation grows ever-closer to becoming Greece. It will not merely take more than one president to undo the Democrat’s damage — it will take a different president.
It will take more than one president? Why not show Obama you agree and give that second president a chance to fix things come November?
It would be a shame to ignore him the one time he says something right.

As long as that president isn't another democrat or the socialist in the WH now. Another term for o and this will no longer be America. It's fading fast enough as it is.
Fixing our ecomony require the complete removal off of all new liberal social commi NAZI demo ratttt icccs from office Now not later, the arrest of evey last one of them, putting them on trial for high treason, the proper conviction of them, and sentencing according to the law and since they meet certian requirments the removal of all money from there pocket books and use that to pay off the national debt that they created with the soul purpose of destroying this country. Any questions Hitler obama Jr and his court of NAZI COMMI followers?????????//
obama said one thing truthfully, its certaiinly going to take more than one president to fix the economy if he is that one president, for sure.
Userper yes, president no. I think it's a confession.
No, Hussein. It's going to take an AMERICAN president. One interested in the well being of the nation, not that of George Soros, the King of Saudi Arabia, the Teamsters and Machinists and the agenda of the American Communist Party.
Yes, we are struggling with you, and we do have a right to be angry.
Two depressions since the Fed started messing with out money, or what used to be money.
More than one president Who: Gingrich=Romney who instituted BOCare in his state before BO tried it on American or Gingrich who wrote RomneyCare before Mitt passed.
RINOs on the loose.
Yeah….anyone but you Barry, "Enemy of the State". You've done enough damage already.
Obama said in 2008 (?) that if the economy wasn't fixed in three years that he would be a one term president. I think it should and will be fact…one term….and that is far too much time for such a_______ to be in office.
As of today, America is OFFICIALLY a police state, in case anyone missed it..
