Why? Because I trust Obama and always tend to give him enough space to carry out his duties HIS way.

His mind works differently than most of us and I find it a major process to try to figure him out. The only thing I can come up with is that he is always a ton of steps ahead of the rest of us. Of course, he has different information to work with than we do, so he has the advantage, but he is sharp as hell and does that Obama dance none of us have learned...including our enemies and the Republican party.

Go, Obama! Got your back!
