Obama's appearance will occur less than a week before election day, and three days before Stewart's rally to "Restore Sanity" on the National Mall. The event is planned as a response to conservative pundit Glenn Beck's "Restoring Honor" rally, which took place Aug. 28. Stewart's conservative alter-ego, Stephen Colbert, is hosting a mock response rally the same day, dubbed "The March to Keep Fear Alive." makes sense to target the young people...they're usually gullible and uninformed.

It is not fair to criticize this President for what the job calls for and his way of doing the parties business. I have not seen the scandals of past Presidents in this administration and progress is being made, although meek and not necessarily perfect. The corporate influence that has caused our economic mess is the result of many years of bad political decisions, I say starting with Nixon going to China. We have to rebuild what we had and compete with the world but put the USA first. I like what the President has tried to do to protect some of our domestic tire industry, but this is a small start, I hope. We have a little more than 2 years to find out, and I hope I am right.

He will lose the Congress but I think many of the Democrats that are running would prefer him back in Washington as well.

He is a tough interviewer and speaks his mind, I don't agree with him completely but more than less. I hope he does not pull his punches with the President and asks about jobs, infrastructure, industry and trade agreements that will help our economic trend. I think in this day and age a President on TV is a good forum.

People know that President Obama is trying his best and who will say no to anything good. People know who altered heath care and took away as much of the good as they could....and then complained about the bad that they added and tried to make Obama the blame. People know many, many wealthy American are stingy, cheap, hateful and greedy, and will lie and steal do virtualy anything to stay rich and powerful. People know who they are, despite what they and media do to deceive. The President has my support because he has done a fantastic job especially having to deal with those haters...we know who they are and in November we will show you....again. VOTE

October 20 2010 at 8:42 PM Report abuse Permalink -6 rate up rate down ReplyUnfortunately the vast majority of Americans have little patience and demand an instant fix on things...which is absolutly ridiculous of course...I just hope people don't make this an election on a referendum on how unhappy people are but count on things getting better during the next two years, and Obamas SECOND TERM!

(And maybe people would have more confidence in him.)But about mid-November (or earlier) he'll start running for re-election. Apparently we didn't elect a president, we elected a campaigner and fund raiser. Change you can believe i n??

It is not how loud your message is it is how much money you have. Sad that people have to be paid to listen to him but that is what it has come down to. All his own doing.
