Why has Obama failed to keep 364 of his 500 promises? Obama didn't mean it, he played politics then, and he is playing politics now. No Hope, No Change, Nada.
The supporters for Obama often misinform, misguide, demagogue, and make excuses for Obama's terrible record. Is it a surprise that most of Obama's campaign promises are languishing?
In the end, the Bush presidency did not "lie about WMD", did not "start wars", did not "lose jobs", did not "crash the economy", did not "create bad will for the US in the world".
The blame Bush card, the race card, and the card card are played out.
Gallup today has seen the largest single day slip for Obama, now at 45% approval, and 48% disapproval. Obama is running out of time, and out of presidency.
