We have seen many things about our POTUS that many do not like about him, and while we have all had leaders we did not like, we could usually pick out a few things, or traits/characteristics you could use or emulate.
So, list the things you do like, keep it professional as always. What did momma say? "If you have nothing nice to say, don't say nothing all."
I'll start:
(1) President Obama broke the racial barrier. He earned an education, became a Senator and a lawyer and is now the President.
(2) He has given millions a hope that one day they can do something great, especially those from under privileged areas.
(3) He has largely supported the military until as of recently with the downsizing, which is inevitable in every decade, our leaders have to make cuts...we keep only the best and brightest, right?
(4) He is a very supportive husband and father, and we need strong father role models in today's society where fathers are as rare as a long term-marriage.
I believe he honestly wants good things for America...I don't necessarily agree with the way he is going about it.
(5) He authorized the killing of Osama Bin Laden.
I know there aren't many fans on RP, but if there is something you like, share it if you dare.

I like that he always makes a fool out of himself. I like that his term is almost over and we will get someone new to pick on.

I guess I need to follow your momma's advice.
What did momma say? "If you have nothing nice to say, don't say nothing all."
I guess that sums up what I have to say.

I wish he would just go pro golfer, (not that he is qualified,) and stop mucking up everything. He truly has the reverse Midas Touch, every thing he touches turns to excrement.

You lost me at "broke the racial barrier." While I admit he himself has made a great life and achieved what most in politics would consider the penultimate victory in being elected POTUS, it is clear the racial divide in America is at an all time high since the abolition of slavery. I blame this administration. For that widening gap.

I grew up in Arkansas in the late 60's and 70's and I don't remember this much hatred and contempt for each other's ethninticity....Do we have a racial problem... You bet we do, but the POTUS has done more to destroy the progress in the last 7 years than we have made in the last 50....
People have to STOP using the words "White American" African American" or any other name in front of American and unite as an "AMERICAN" once we have a common name as a country we can work on a common goal as a people.

SrA Mike Sulton - That needs to start with the Government... Why do they ask us for "race" on every single government form?

The responses to this thread show that American military members are just as bad as politicians, which in effect are simply a reflection of the greater society. If you watch any of the presidential, Congressional, or other elected debates the moderator will often ask a question and you will see the candidates simply brush the main point of the question aside and utilize it as a segue into their main points. In this thread the question was what do you like about Pres. Obama, and a large portion of the respondents utilizes an opportunity to segue right back into what they don’t like about the president. A large portion of the topics, and discussion on the site are about how much the military community is not happy with the current administration, but when it cannot even set aside that unhappiness to answer a simple question, or elect not to attempt to answer the simple question then he shows it is only interested in scoring points within a political argument.
