>> President Barack Obama is just the fifth president in the 84-year history of the S&P 500 index to see it double during his term, Do you REALLY think that is a reasonable metric -- when the DOW hit 14000 in 2007 under GWB and now, SIX YEARS LATER, 4.5 of which were under Obama, it stands at 15,000 and change? If so, your analytical skills are called into question. The REAL question that ought to be asked is, "Why has it taken so long, and why is unemployment stuck at sky-hight rates?"
