60 Minutes Blog

We just watched a clip from 60 minutes that had an interview with Barack Obama. Although President Obama said that he was responsible for everything that is happening, he did make several excuses. This shows that he thinks that it is not his fault. I think that he needs to do a better job of being responsible for the United States' problems. He needs to find solutions to the problems with the economy and not just blame every single thing on the Bush Administration. At the beginning of the video, Obama said the statistics of the jobs lost each month before he stepped into office and the months afterward. He blamed President Bush and his administration for the jobs lost. I think that President Obama, if he wants to work with the Republicans, needs to take responsibility for the state that the country is in now.

  1. I complete agree with Sam. I think that Obama needs to take more of the responsibility. Especially, like Sam said, if he wants to work and compromise with the Republicans. However, he was elected during a difficult time in the US. I think he's done a pretty good job with what he's had.

  2. I agree. Obama has been signed in for nearly two years now. It's time that he takes responsiblity for his own problems, instead of covering them up with excuses of past administrations.
