Could you find me a website of all his promises he didn't keep? I'm sure the list would be much longer. And what has he done in his last 1 and a half years as president? Campaigned and made more promises that will not be kept. He has done nothing for a year and a half. The national debt ceiling is sky high, and this fag is trying to save his job, rather than doing his duties of helping his country. Actions speak louder than words, and his actions say that the only reason he got elected is because he was black in the first place, and the second time, because he smeared Romney's name all over the place, but I was yet to see a commercial discrediting Obama, funded by Romney.-Obama promised to create government subsidized healthcare for hundreds of millions currently uninsured or underinsured. Check.

I am not saying Obama kept all his promises, but u asked what he managed to keep. If you check that same website I provided, it shows Obama actually promised more than what he had broken by a margin of almost 3:1, so you are wrong for that claim. He honored 175 promises, broke 63, 147 are still in the house, 54 were hedged, and 67 stalled.
You talk like you believe Romney/Ryan would keep 100% of their promises too. Fact of the matter is no politician can keep 100% of the promises they make. Keep in mind the MAIN platform Obama campaigned for and promised, he DID in fact keep...for the most part...so...yeah, his actions back up his words.
Do you also know how your political system works? The fact that Republicans had house majority meant that even though Obama's bills were passed and drafted in the senate, the house could filibuster/delay/stall any of Obama's legislation. So therein explains why 'progress' was so slow or not made at all. He was and will likely continue to be stalled by a bunch of butthurt republicans.
You do also realize that BOTH democrats and republics smeared each others names, and considering Romney spend more than double what Obama did, you can be sure that Romney got his smear + discrediting campaign out there just as much or more than Obama did.
Before you paraphrase a FOX news (or some other right-leaning biased news) headline, try reading and educating yourself. You talk about debt-ceiling being sky high and you don't talk about how Obama inherited trillions in deficit from a republican named Bush. While I am not saying Obama hasn't spent loads of $, he is and has, put into place regulations aka Tax Reform Proposals designed to curb the federal spending and increase tax revenues on businesses making $10mil+ which come Dec. 31 will come into effect. Also bear in mind republicans like to say Obama is all big-government when in fact he has cut more government jobs than the former president Bush did so...yea.
You also come off as a racial-stereotyping bigot by believing he was only elected (twice now) because of the colour of his skin. A famous civil rights leader once said "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character."

The first four paragraphs were good. Put me in my place. But the last... I don't discriminate by race. And I said the first time he was elected by race. Second was from his "Romney is bad oh blah blah blah." campaign. (Oh and I have yet to see a commercial of Romney smearing Obama.) And yeah, maybe the color of someone's skin mattered when we were coming off of the civil rights movement, but today, most of the racism is from the black population. I don't not like Obama because of his skin, I don't like him because I am a republican and liberal ideas just are stupid most of the time. So, all in all, because I don't like my black president, it doesn't make me "a racial-stereotyping bigot" neither does me observing that the entire black population voted for him, it just means that I don't like my president and I wish Mitt Romney could have won. That's it.

"...but today, most of the racism is from the black population." Wow. Just. Wow. I'm gonna leave that one for you to just look at and
Your ability to completely over-generalize while being unable to eloquently express your ideals + beliefs is beyond my understanding. It's like you were raised in iCe's house lol, Although I have more respect for iCe
When you grow up, read a little, leave your country and see the world outside yours, maybe...just maybe...you'll be able to open your eyes and see the child you still are. No doubt, you're 15, I get it you're still growing up and learning...but...Wow. Just. Wow.
EDIT: Dalton, the more I read this, I am a bit ashamed of myself too. I am in no means trying to crucify you (religious pun intended). I know you are young as I said. I just want you to realize that, while yes you are firmly set in your beliefs and ideals, there are other opinions and perspectives out there to at least see and understand. Flatly stating "liberal ideas just are stupid most of the time." is not conducive to you gaining higher learning, insight or understanding. I honestly believe you probably are a good and decent kid just defending what you think you think is right. If you really do want to better yourself and convince others of your own ideals, you gotta smarten up and learn to approach from the other side too.

Really? Then how come everyone in my high school doesn't give two shits if their best friend is black, white, green, or yellow, but we have black people jumping everyone almost everyday for nothing? (I was actually jumped by 3 of them one day. I had said nothing or done nothing.) And I am sorry that I cannot express my ideas as good as a 20 year old guy who seems to really enjoy picking on a 14 (not 15) year old.
a) Poverty is a bitch.
b) Racism is still very rampant in America, just like Homophobia.
Not having any money, and not being able to get a job because is a real piss off. Even worse when you're young, impressionable, and, poor as fuck. This is the exact issue with Poverty, and this "everybody for themselves" mentality.
If you think that last statement is geared toward a single race you are very wrong. Throughout history "True Americans" have blamed every other minority for their problems. Irish, Italians, East Asian, and of course Blacks.
