On April 14, 2009, as Barack Obama’s standing in the polls was beginning to slip, and as Tea Party demonstrators were amassing in Washington for tax day protests, the president gave a lengthy address at Georgetown University explaining the “five pillars” of his economic policies. The speech was intended to promote a memorable slogan for Obama’s program that would evoke comparisons with Theodore Roosevelt’s Square Deal, Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal, and Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society.

Obama’s contribution was to be the New Foundation. “We must lay a new foundation for growth and prosperity–a foundation that will move us from an era of borrow and spend to one where we save and invest,” he declared. Obama would repeat the phrase seven times that day and on many more occasions over the next months. At Obama’s private White House dinner with presidential historians that June, the historians were no more impressed than the public with the New Foundation as a slogan. “I don’t think it’s going to work,” Robert Dallek warned. Doris Kearns Goodwin said it sounded “like a woman’s girdle.”

    “Save and Invest” he said…

    Now correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t this the same exact guy that recently approved funding of 657 billion dollars for the ongoing ‘wars’? Wars of which OUR people were supposedly pulled out of COMPLETELY by this time next year?
    NewsFlash: The 657billion proposed is to fund a THREE YEAR advance in the wars…

    Is this not the same man that cut school funding to finance said wars?

    “save and invest” he said….

    Gotta ask …what was that thing he said we could believe in again???

    @Carolina, I really don’t want to get this started with you again, but I have to say, you have to learn to make a distinction between that what you call hate and constructive criticism. Why don’t you try something new on this blog. Why don’t you try refuting some of the specific critiques being lodged? I mean, it’s real easy to go around saying “hate” but I think your points would take root a lot better if you can counter the critiques made. With that said, there was a post made a few weeks ago that I thought was quite profound (I’m sorry I forgot his name to give him proper credit) He said that Presidents essentially are nothing more than fall guys whose job it is to take the blame for all the negative legislation put forth by these crooks on Wall street. I also saw how ALL Presidents seem to leave office with ridiculously low approval numbers after having great numbers when they were elected.

    Carolina, there is something you need to understand. BHO IS NOT A POWER BROKER in this world. He is only a mouth piece for the real stewards of this economy. This has nothing to do with black hate. ALL PRESIDENTS are the same. These guys don’t know anything about economics, much less how to engineer a Trillion dollar economy. In short, I understand you being protective of your beloved BHO, but you better get used to the idea of his approval numbers plummeting. Most economists now are projecting unemployment staying at or around this level through next year. BHO will UNFAIRLY be blamed for this, but this is how the game is played. Dude is not dumb, he knows how the game is played and he is willing participant!

    I swear, the right wing has taken over news one! The Unnecessary Fall Of Barack Obama? How? Who determined that after 19 months he failed? Who? The man after 19 months passed wall street reform, healthcare reform, the Iraq war is ending this month, etc. What the f*** else does he have to do besides walk on water? New one, you should never have any more stupid articles like these on your website. No legitimate reason why these articles should be published. LOOK AT BUSH; HE RUIN THE COUNTRY, THE MIDDLE CLASS, AND THE ECONOMY BUT HE WAS STILL ELECTED TWICE. YOU MEAN TO TELL ME A African American GET IN THERE AND TRIES TO FIX THINGS AND HE VILIFIED? I’ll never vote in national elections again if he don’t get re-elected. Never! ( I won’t stop voting because people have fought and died for me to vote but I won’t vote in national elections)

    Iraq war is ending this month??????? What planet are some of you BHO supporters living on? I mean really, do you people just come on here and MAKE UP your own facts?????? Wall street reform? Tell me one thing in that bill that is beneficial? I doubt you even know. I won’t say there aren’t some good provisions in it, but the REFORM was supposed to be to the “Too big to Fail” aspect and that has not changed. Healthcare REFORM was supposed to to the healthcare providers. In both cases, the banks and healthcare providers got bigger and richer. Thanks BHO!

    The headline said the unnecessary “FALL” not that he “FAILED AFTER19 MONTHS” I think proper comprehensive skills are a necessary requisite before posting foolishness. I won’t say Bush deserved to be re-elected, but at the time, unemployment was at about 4-5%, the Dow was at 13-15k and credit was flowing like the Nile so to say the economy was wrecked at that time is more fantasy on your part. OH and don’t forget, the people voted for him. Although, it was coming apart at the seams very rapidly, YOU definitely had no clue of that!

    @_A_ I know I would see you here and standing proud for the white man and newsone. Im not even going to try and point the FACT that PRESIDENT OBAMA IS BLACK yet THATS ALL PEOPLE LIKE NEWSONE NEED TO GO AFTER HIM…IS THE COLOR OF THE BLACK MANS SKIN TO BRING HIM DOWN ONLY FOOLS LIKE YOU WOULD THINK ITS NOT HATE NOR THE COLOR OF HIS SKIN THAT KEEP THE HATE COMING IN. Do YOU think for 1 min that IF President Obama had MORE of his WHITE skin SHOWING or EVEN WHITE period…he would get a BAD rap? I say HELL NO JUST LOOK AT ALL THE WHITE PRESIDENT BEFORE HIM. Im not saying vote him in because he is black im saying OPEN your EYES to SEE THE TRUTH that HIS BLACK SKIN IS WHY EVERYONE IS TALKING. YOU YOURSELF STATED HE HADN’T DONE ANYTHING DIFFERENT THAN THE REST OF THE PAST PRESIDENTS SO WHAT IS ALL THIS DAMN TALK FOR? WHEN THE WHITE PRESIDENT DIDN’T GET THE SAME BAD RAP NOT EVEN BUSH AND HE IS THE REASON WHY THE 9/11 HAPPEN. After ALL IM TRYING TO KEEP IT FAIR AND EQUAL…so far the BLACK RACE IS LOOSING ON NEWSONE. Yet we are ON TOP OF EVERYTHING BAD and only good IN SOME SPORTS. We can’t swim because of our hair and black boys/men can’t get pass high school and you know the rest…so now do you get the PICTURE? If not go back and read our uplifting topic on our black supporting net.(JMOARTY)

    Wait? The Iraq war is ending this month????? How did I miss that one?!

    And for crying out loud, can we PLEASE stop crying about Bush! I didn’t ‘hate’ him and I don’t hate Obama because neither one are in CONTROL.

    _A_, As usual you pretty much shut these topics DOWN with great ease…
    BHO supporters need to operate with a little more KNOWLEDGE and a tad less EMOTION…
    But I guess we shall both wait for someone to drop FACTS as opposed to tears….

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/_A_/ _A_

    Pardon me Carolina, but have you just woke up from a 40 year sleep two years ago? Are you going to tell me that GWB wasn’t catching hell from the Liberal media? Do you realize that he left with some of the lowest approval ratings in the history of this country. See it’s one thing to stand up and talk crap, but it’s another to talk crap about shyt you have a clue about. It’s CLEAR you don’t have a clue about this. Bill Clinton Caught hell, GHWB caught hell, Reagan, Carter etc. THEY ALL CATCH IT. But again, I asked you, what in this article is a lie? fkcu all the Racist bull!!! POINT OUT WHAT THE LIE IS!!! The funny thing is, I’m not even sure why I’m asking, cause you gonna take this conversation all over the place but won’t answer that question. Again..just in case you forgot.

    _A_, Well said….

    And what is up with ‘Ruckus’ thing? So you mean to tell me that any time we make a comment about Obama and his actions, that means we ‘hate’ all black people? And by the way, not once do I ever recall myself nor _A_ ever stating that we hated Obama…Matter of fact, I know I have given the man credit for obviously being well educated, articulate, well spoken and has a beautiful black family at that….

    What I won’t give him credit for is either not knowing the system he is in and playing the game blindly OR full well knowing the system and willingly participating…

    There you have it, that should have ‘maded’ you all happy….

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/_A_/ _A_

    BHO seems very personable. Seems like you go to a Bulls game and hang out and have a good time. My issue is how he has cosigned with this destructive liberal agenda. The thing that makes me laugh out loud though is the empty heads who thinks he is walking around cracking heads and taking names..Like there is a new sheriff in town, who has come to clean up Washington. There are more Financial and Pharmaceutical lobbyists now than there ever was. And for those of you who don’t know, THEY are the ones who actually wrote the Financial and Healthcare reform bills. Still think they are designed to help YOU!!!! No, they just change the language up a bit, but effectively they work the same, with tighter Government backstops…..It’s actually useless talking to many of you…Listen, I DON’T WANT YOU TO TAKE MY WORD FOR IT. In fact, I want you to prove this information wrong. I really wish it was inaccurate.

You act as IF PRESIDENT OBAMA SKIN COLOR IS NOT THE REASON FOR ALL THE MEDIA TALK…GET REAL WITH YOURSELF BEFORE YOU COME AT ME WITH YOUR “the other presidents was blamed” BULLSH!T because UNLIKE YOU I KNOW BETTER and with the way your talking its YOU WHO IS STILL SLEEP. And to answer your question _A_ EVERYTHING and the ARTICLE itself is UNNECESSARY and to you and the writer might THINK they WAS yet I DON’T. Its should have been an OPINION ASK NOT A STATEMENT MISLEADING PEOPLE LIKE YOU. QUESTION _A_ THE TITLE READS(THE UNNECESSARY FALL OF BARACK OBAMA) NOW GOING OFF THAT TITLE WOULDN’T THAT INCLUDE THE TOPIC YOU ALSO AGREED ON? After ALL the MEDIA is PUTTING HIM DOWN ON THAT TOPIC TOO AND CALLING IT SOMEWHAT UNNECESSARY.(JMOARTY)

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/_A_/ _A_

    First of all, I have no clue who Uncle Ruckus is. If that is some character from Tyler Fairy then It’s no wonder.

    IRAQ. DID YOU EVEN READ THE DAMN HEADLINE, of that article, much less the article itself. It said the End of the war BEGINS//BEGINS!!!! BEGINS!!!!! at the end of the month. The article goes on to state that a drawdown of troops will have levels down to 94k at the end of this month. This drawdown has been going on for months. Now he has clearly stated that 50k-65k troops will remain until the end of 2011. What does that mean to you? ANything? Anything at all? That’s not even counting the amount of Defense contractors that are there, that are effectively soldiers. Their paid by the Govt and those contractors won’t hire you unless you are PRIOR Special Forces. Come on, use a little common sense!

    Wall Street Reform. You realize that all those things listed are the PROPOSALS. The new Consumer Protection Financial Bureau doesn’t even have a chief yet. But get this, there are two people who would be great advocates for the consumer. Elizabeth Warren and William Black. The former now chairs the COngressional Oversight Panel for TARP funds. She has put Wall street crooks feet to the fire. So guess who is now trying to BLOCK her appointment? Timothy Geithner and Chris Dodd. These two want to appoint one of their goldman sachs buddies to head up the Bureau. Inside baseball.

    Healthcare Reform. The biggest issue with healthcare was the healthcare providers. The system worked against us, because these companies have very little competition since you can’t go outside of state lines. This effectively creates a monopoly or in some cases a cabal. Guess who stands to make Billions now that BHO has FORCED everyone to purchase healthcare or pay a fine? Is that even constitutional?

    Get past the headline and dig deeper you stooge!!!

    CAROLINA, I have never ONCE said race wasn’t an issue with the President. I’m under no illusion about racism in this country and I probably know that better than you do. But you want me to believe that ALL this criticism is because he is black. Well if that’s the case, then you should be able to easily counter the points made in this article…so again I ask….

    ARE THERE ANY LIES IN THE ARTICLE?

    ARE THERE ANY LIES IN THE ARTICLE?

    ARE THERE ANY LIES IN THE ARTICLE?

    ARE THERE ANY LIES IN THE ARTICLE?

    The funny thing is, I know you’re not going to answer this even if I asked it 100 times..lol

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/_A_/ _A_

    Oh and recall the campaign promise…Total withdrawal from Iraq in 6 months. And to answer your question, HELL no i didn’t vote for neither. I don’t believe in voting for the lesser of two evils cause you’re still voting for evil. Would that black Jesus you have as your pic, vote for the lesser of two evils?????

    @_A_ HERE IS MY ANSWER ONCE AGAIN YOU FAIL TO READ…KML DID YOU FEEL THE NEED TO RESPOND SO FAST THAT YOU LACK TO READ MYRESPONSE TO YOUR QUESTION? Hey _A_ COME CLOSER CLOSER CLOSER CLOSER NOW DAMNIT CAN YOU READ MY ANSWER OR DO YOU NEED HELP IN DO SO?

    (And to answer your question _A_ EVERYTHING and the ARTICLE itself is UNNECESSARY and to you and the writer might THINK they WAS yet I DON’T. It should have been an OPINION ASK NOT A STATEMENT MISLEADING PEOPLE LIKE YOU. QUESTION _A_ THE TITLE READS(THE UNNECESSARY FALL OF BARACK OBAMA) NOW GOING OFF THAT TITLE WOULDN’T THAT INCLUDE THE TOPIC YOU ALSO AGREED ON? After ALL the MEDIA is PUTTING HIM DOWN ON THAT TOPIC TOO AND CALLING IT SOMEWHAT UNNECESSARY.)

    Now you keep saying what did the article lie about? And I told your dumba$$ EVERYTHING HOWEVER YOU FAIL TO READ THE ANSWER BECAUSE YOUR SO QUICK TO POINT FINGERS REMEMBER _A_ YOU GOT 3 POINTING BACK AT YOU. LOL DENIAL IS EVERYTHING IN YOUR WORLD _A_ among other things. Get it together YOUR SKIN COLOR IS EVERYTHING IN THE EYES OF WHITE AMERICA AND YOUR FOOL IF YOU THINK OTHERWISE. YES being a PRESIDENT come with alot of thing YET BEING A BLACK MAN AS A PRESIDENT COME WITH ALOT MORE THINGS OTHER THAN WHAT THE WHITE MAN WOULD BE PUT THREW. What YOU,NEWSONE,MEDIA,NEWS,NET,REP,ETC MIGHT SEE OR THINK IS A FALL (I DON’T.) SO THE UNNECESSARY TITLE TO THE STATEMENT WAS WRONG AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN A FORM OF AN OPINION INSTEAD OF A STATEMENT. WHY SHOULD I BELIEVE PRESIDENT OBAMA HAS UNNECESSARY FALLS BECAUSE COMING FROM THE SAME SOURCE HE HASN’T INWHICH 1 YOU AGREED ON. Yet YOU don’t SEE the RACE CARD ALL IN THE REPORTS OF PRESIDENT OBAMA. Go do your RESEARCH on the news and net coverage of the last 4 president…I want hurt your brain and ask you to look up more than that because you will ONLY GO DEEPER IN DENIAL. Now once you finish COMPARE them to President Obama and get your own answer and you will SEE FOR YOURSELF ITS THE SAME AS MINE. HE IS A BLACK MAN IN A WHITE MAN SEAT AND THEY WILL SAY AND DO ANYTHING TO PAINT A PICTURE AS IF IT WAS SOME TYPE OF UNNECESSARY FALL DEALING WITH PRESIDENT OBAMA…SO FOOLS LIKE YOU WILL RUN WITH IT. O’my bad I forgot who I was dealing with aaa hell he will over look the ANSWER,DENY HE SEE THE QUESTION AND THEN ASK ME AGAIN DAMNIT. LOL :)

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/infinite_question/ infinite_question

    i didnt stand in line in november for a silver bullet candidate. i didnt think obama was some “golden child prophecy”. i didnt think that far in the future, i just didnt like the direction the country was moving in. many americans agreed with me as well. the slogan was “yes WE can” not “yes HE can”.

    but i like what has transpired through this administrations scrutiny in that we are debating issues that NEEDED to be adressed. the difference is crystal clear…we can either ATTEMPT to tackle the problems of middle class america, or throw up our hands in frustration. im the first to say the democratic party has its problems with testicular fortitude, but i cant trust my vote with a party that thinks global warming is a myth, off shore drilling is enviromentally safe, that we can WIN in afghan OR iraq, or that the universe will end as we know it, if isreal doesnt get tax payer aid every year.

    yes, there are MINOR issues i have with the health care reform bill. i feel harry reid played us on the public option. but there are MAJOR parts of the bill that i agree with. i like the expansion of medicaid, i wont have to pay these colossal premiums for these cheap ass indiana health care plans. so we DID get an EXPANSION of the public option we already have. i work in a hospital so i pass the over crowded er rooms, and see the 4 or 5 hour waits, just to SEE a nurse. i personally know working class people who have went bankrupt from mrsa, cancer, etc. NOT everyone will have 2 PAY for insurance, those who are substancially under the poverty line will STILL get medicaid. not perfect, but effective.

    the wall street bill is a lil different. but whenever chris dodd dislikes something, it means the people will benefit from it. congress will approve elizabeth warren and consumers WILL have a new found voice, i only wish the companies were FORCED to refund a consumers money instead of a fine. not perfect but effective.

    lastly we have the war in iraq. this isnt a situation where u pack up ur 42 inch hd joint, box springs, and x box and call uhaul. its going to take time, not only because of all the equipment on the ground, but to insure the safety of those who will evacuate and more importantly, those who will remain.

    no one here is saying obama is jesus christ reincarnated, but we are willing to give him more time and support to CHANGE the trajectory of domestic and foreign policy legislation by attacking the PROBLEMS instead of IGORING them and passing them on to the next administration.

    Lol…Carolina you amaze me. I ask you what are the lies and you tell me the whole article is lie? Even the 100% pure and known facts are lies too? lol

    Can you actually PROVE anything? That’s all I’m asking. If it’s a no, say it’s a no. I mean it’s clear you can’t or you would have by now. And see, Jayevans doesn’t deal with the article either, he starts running down what Obama has done positive. The article doesn’t suggest he hasn’t done ANYTHING positive, so why list those things? It’s clear why? He can’t refute the theme of the article, that’s why! Neither one of you can!

    I never asked you once if the article is Necessary so why would that be a part of your answer to MY QUESTION? Talking to you is like talking to a child who is struggling to grasp simple concepts. I don’t think you have a clue what BHO is up to. I bet you can’t name one person on his deficit reduction team? You can keep coming back at me all you want, I won’t be responding to you anymore because it’s pointless!

    @Infinite_Question you write

    but i cant trust my vote with a party that thinks global warming is a myth, off shore drilling is enviromentally safe, that we can WIN in afghan OR iraq, or that the universe will end as we know it, if isreal doesnt get tax payer aid every year.

    On the real, can you actually prove global warming is real????? You have seen facts that removes all doubt from your mind? I doubt that, but you just accept this junk science as factual. Ok, I won’t really argue that point because honestly, i have no idea, but I do know, I don’t believe it for a second. What party feels we can win in Afghanistan or Iraq? seems like the current one since the troop levels are being increased in Afghan, and mark my word, BHO will be the face of an Iran invasion here within 365 days.

    If you truly have faith in this legislation that many economists say are more detrimental to the avg American by way of increased deficits, (many of whom are BHO supporters) then so be it, but programs like Medicaid/medicare and Social Security are more burdensome expenditures at this point, but difficult if not impossible to unwind. The fact is BHO is not the cause of these problems (not sure how much clearer that can be made) but these things are so tightly wound, that his “legislation” in an attempt to fix it is useless. America crossed the point of no return years ago, dare I say decades!

    Oh, please let us know when those wait times in the ER get slashed by 50% or so….I won’t hold my breath. I’m not sure, but does this bill even claim to solve that problem?

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/YourDaddy123/ YourDaddy123

    Pretty clear to me most here who have commented have failed to read the entire article. Basically it says that BHO ran on the “transformation” ticket but so far has failed to deliver. So far his presidency is eerily similar to that of one Jimmy Carter; who ran on a similar promise and also failed to deliver.

    My observation is that most blacks(like jayevans and carolinagirl) cannot be objective when it comes to criticizing other blacks. BHO has an 85% approval rating in DC but a 42-44% approval rating nationwide. Huge discrepancy.

    He is failing on a multitude of levels. It’s clear, but blacks fail to see this; making loyalty a vice.

    Not sure where we go from here. IMO, BHO will be a one term president, for a multiple of reasons. I see the need to support other blacks but not unconditionally; which carolina and jay cannot grasp.

    I think that’s the problem with Black today. Blacks are the main ones fighting each other. You don’t hear Hispanics fighting each other like Blacks do. I support my President and if I’m wrong for it, fine. Say I’m wrong. I see a man who I voted for that’s trying to do something. What are you all doing? YourDaddy123 add you two cent too. Doesn’t matter. _A_ , go your route. CaliFemme23, you too. Do what you want. You go the route you want to go and I’ll go mine. It’s as simple as that. We don’t have to go back and forth on a blog. Obama has my vote in 2012. I want to see this Country moving forward and I believe he’s doing that. If you don’t cool with me. Finally, end of discussion.

And that’s what has happened in the last 20 months of the Great Recession to Barack Obama and to the Democratic Party he leads.)

    Your words: “Is this not the same man [President Obama] that cut school funding to finance said wars.”

    The truth:

    Example 1:

    “Obama’s education program faces $500M cut despite veto threat”

    Clearly, Obama is threatening to veto any attempt by MODERATE DEMOCRATS OR REPUBLIKKKANS to cut education spending.

    (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/07/02/AR2010070202930.html)

    Example 2:

    Obama Attacks Education Cuts, Nelson Unable to Defend

    (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/bill-scher/obama-attacks-education-c_b_165583.html)

    This article also has a brilliant segment by Rachel Maddow, explaining how Obama’s stimulus package mirrors FDR’s, which was responsible for bringing this country out of the Great Depression.

    @ _A_: YOUR WRONG (BUT I THINK YOU ALREADY REALIZE IT…LOL)

    Your Question: “Tell me one thing in that [Wall Street Reform] bill that is beneficial?

    Answer:

    See Article: “Reforms put Wall Street in its placePassage of Obama’s financial reform bill restores Wall Street to its proper role as the economy’s servant – and not its master.”

    (http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/cifamerica/2010/may/21/obama-financial-reform-bill-wall-street.)

    -This article spells out a number of meaningful provisions that make Wall Street more transparent.

    Could there be stronger reform provisions placed in the bill? Of course. But who do you think fights these proposed stronger provisions? Moderate Dems & virtually all Republicans. Obama has done as much as he can, with what he has for certain.

    If you really want so-called “stronger reform” than find a Revolutionary Party to support. It would take complete revolution to take power away from Banks & Wall Street.

    I doubt y’all are ready for that. LoL.

    Obama is clearly not a “Revolutionary,” but a progressive. Plus…he needs help in the Senate & House, which he doesn’t have…thanks to voters.

    I could go on forever…but you Obama Haters are easy to expose as fraudulent. Most Blk folk can see it, even if they can’t fully articulate it.

    @YourDaddy123-Its people like you who just A$$UME things then take it and go and prejudge and open your mouth before you see and get a TRUE UNDERSTANDING. I read the whole topic and just incase you missed it here the part that I love the most and it prove my case in what I been stating all this time.

    (If, in circ**stances like the present one, you don’t develop a populist politics, your adversaries will use populism to define you as an enemy of the people. That’s what Carter discovered during the stagflation of the late ’70s. And that’s what has happened in the last 20 months of the Great Recession to Barack Obama and to the Democratic Party he leads.)

    KEY WORD>ENEMY>to the>PEOPLE. Now see how the REP are trying to turn the people against President Obama? WHAT HAS THE REP DONE FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE?(JMOARTY)

    iq repilies…you gotta start watching the boondocks, its in its 3rd season!

    2 On the real, can you actually prove global warming is real????? You have seen facts that removes all doubt from your mind? I doubt that, but you just accept this junk science as factual. Ok, I won’t really argue that point because honestly, i have no idea, but I do know, I don’t believe it for a second.

    iq replies…im not going to dignify this comment until u read a few science books.

    3 Iraq war is ending this month??????? What planet are some of you BHO supporters living on?
