Our weak President

Since WWII the United States has been the world leader when it comes to world events whether it is so form of humanitarian relief or flexing our military muscle just by being the area of conflict without using our force. Many times, just the threat of our military use of force has at times sent the message. Through our leadership, we have led other nations where conflict has been required use of our military. Example: Korea, Operation Desert Storm, Kosovo, and many humanitarian efforts that are too numerous to mention. Yet, we have President Obama who cannot lead, refuses to take the lead on world issues and will only respond when either NATO or the UN votes unanimously. When was the last time we had a unanimous vote from these groups. When necessary, the world turns to the United States, but our President will not lead. This is noticed by both our friends and enemies and provides the perfect opportunity for both friends and enemies to take advantage of situations. We have become a joke to the world. If the media had actually reviewed Obama's record in the state legislature and Congress they would have seen a clear indication of his lack of leadership. He wants to be president for all the perks and notoriety, but does not have the cayonnes to take any action. Hopefully, he will be only a one term president.
