Are "They" Weighing Obama Down?

President Obama was elected into office because America was expecting "immediate" change. After almost eight months into office, Obama has realized that it will definitely take alot longer than her expected to make the necessary changes that will bring this Nation back to stability.

Today, our President will be having beer on the lawn of the White House with Professor Henry Louis Gates and Police Sgt. Officer James Crowley. While understanding our President's reasoning for this meeting to resolve this situation, some feel that President Obama has slowly loosing his "swag" when it comes to handling politics.
