Not really. President Obama is a Democrat. But some of the views he holds used to also be held by moderate Republicans, long before the Republican party became more conservative. So, some people say he has a lot in common with what moderate Republicans once believed.
Republicans do not have a majority in the Senate; however, they can stop an appointment by President Obama by filibuster.
Yes the democrats do but not the republicans
obama is awesome because he is the first black president and will make changes that he promises more than the republicans ever will
Dateline January 23, 2013Barack Obama has been sworn in for the second time as the President of the US.
what did republicans stop Obama from passing legislation
At least some of it is thinly veiled racism.
Most of President Obama's opponents are Republicans, especially conservative Republicans. They disagree with the president on a number of issues, such as the economy (the president believed a stimulus plan was necessary, while most Republicans wanted to focus on cutting the deficit); and social issues like gay rights or expanded access to contraception. Many Republicans also oppose social programs like Medicare and food stamps, which most Democrats and the president support.
A lot of Republicans said this, but it was wishful thinking. The reliable polls were sometimes murkly, but never actually predicted a loss for Obama.
President Obama is a Democrat. However, he has selected Republicans to work in his cabinet. One Republican in Obama's cabinet is Secretary of Transportation Ray LaHood.
President Obama won the election because the democrats had the most votes.
The Democratic Party supports Obama for President. The Democratic Party will not be bullied by Republicans.
Absolutely not. This is a myth, spread by extreme right-wing Republicans who dislike him or disagree with his policies. Most moderate Republicans understand that even if they disagree with President Obama, that does not mean he is anti-American.
