When was the last time a president actually impacted your life significantly? Why do people go crazy over the next commander in chief when so little actually happens to us as a result?
The last several decades show the presidents prime function is signing bills, managing foreign policy and military activities, and inspiring the nation.
Am I wrong or is this the hard truth we've all needed?
Not entirely wrong, but not entirely right either.

If CNN and Fox News say it's an important event, then it's an important event
Anybody else? Helloooo is this thing on? *tap tap tap*

Both of my brothers were sent to Iraq due to President Bush. I was expected to handle the financial affairs for both of them while they were on deployment. Luckily they both came back unharmed but the family had to be without them for a while, so yes, there are direct affects from the decisions of the president.
Obama forced me to pay $200/mo for health insurance (or else I "pay a $500 fine"). I didn't even need health insurance.
There's one right there, cuckboy.

haven't shot my 1022 in 5 years since Obama is a nigger

Sorry about your brothers. The main concern though seems to be that people obsess over candidates who run on policies that will not really change our lives, but sound promising enough to get them elected.

When Obamacare cost me a job I had held for 10 years.
Clinton caused 2008
Well my insurance jumped up and covers even less now. I couldn't even get the antibiotics I wanted

The president directly effects us and our lives every day through his policies.
If he didn't, it wouldn't be a prestigious and important job.
If you're not affected, please come home from innawoods

Ya cause noticing slow changes over a 10 year span while your living in that span are sooo easy to spot. I just lost my job to outsourcing, so ya the increased h1-b visas, and the free trade agreements are seriously impacting my life.

It's all very indirect and diluted and altered by other powers before their decisions affect you in any way
I would say that the newly appointed Supreme Court Justice will have more influence over America than the next President

Should I spend 800 shekels on an AR-556?
>>71549780
No buy the ar receiver and machine it yourself. Then buy all the parts. Youll save about 500$, have a better gun, and feel like an alpha male.

Good advice.

Obama didn't write the law, nor did he vote on the law. Was it something he wanted? Sure, but other than singing it into law he had nothing to do with it

Post discarded.

So he wrote it and voted on it?

>Just because I campaigned for Trump but didn't vote for him
>doesn't mean I want him to get elected for POTUS!

You've completely missed the point

Idk desu...look at Bush. He changed everyone's lives after 7/11 with the fearmongering and homeland security. Nobody ever thought Bush was going to change their lives when they voted for him. Bush tax cuts also directly affected people and still do. Obama allows me to be covered by health insurance for less than $100/month (used to be $200/month). Those are all pretty direct things.
