His plan to fix the economy sucks. I think the market should be free. The government shouldn't get involved.
I never thought he was going to get us out of the war. And even if we do get out of Iraq, we're going to Afganistan.
I do like that he's pro-choice, pro-gay rights, and all of that.
I can't stand how people are like, obsessed with him. The people in our school going down the halls screaming OBAMA! over and over again is so annoying.
On the day of his inauguration, we had to sit and watch the news for six straight periods. (Or at least I did.) So by the time he's about to swear in and make his speech, I was at lunch so it was too loud to hear anything he said for the first half of the speech and I didn't even see him swear in.
My AP Government teacher made/is making us write letters to Senators, Representitives, and Ed Rendell to try to get them to help us get Obama to come to our school when we graduate. Soon, he's going to make us write letters to Obama himself. We were in the local newspaper for it, too.

I can't vote yet.
But anyway, my views on Obama... At least it wasn't McCain. That dude's got a foot in the grave already and I'd be scared to death if Palin was our president. I'd move to Europe or Canada.
He has good ideas and bad ideas. I agree with taking away the right to bear arms. In Japan, only police can have guns. Gun crime would plummet. "Guns don't kill people, people kill people." My a**. People use guns to kill people. Guns should only be wielded by police officers. That is my stand.
The economy. Yes, he has made a difference. Though small, he's made a difference. Look. Presidents can't clap their hands and say "LOL, economy u r gonna get better now lol." It takes time. The U.S. of A is pretty damn big. No president would be able to make the economy better overnight. Fact of life.
The war. Just like the economy. Can't bring them back in one night. Yes, I disagree with the fact that he put more troops in Iraq, going back on his word... But. We may stop fighting but it doesn't mean the opposing countries will.
I don't follow much of this, but that's what I think.

My opinion on him changes frequently. I've honestly never agreed with everything any of the presidents wanted, but you can't get a god to be president. The fact that he wants to take away the right to bear arms is a good thing in my view. Though I love shooting a gun as much as the next mass murderer, it will stop a lot of crime. People will still be able to commit crime, but it will make the GUN crime go down dramatically. Though, just like marijuana, people will obtain them illegally. Now, I'm not one of those "legalize drugs" kids and I know some people with medical conditions smoke it, but is a law against is really stopping the middle and high school kids from smoking it?
My uncle is head of a hospital where I live, and he absolutely hates Obama and his health care plans. He doesn't understand why an 90 year old man or woman that is going to die, wants to spend their last weeks or years in a hospital bed just waiting to die. I honestly don't know anything about what Obama has planned for health care, so I can't give a valid opinion on it.
Though, I don't however like the fact that everyone as put hype up on him or dissed his 'HOPE FOR CHANGE!" I hate his followers/haters more than him. They all were expecting him to either be Superman and save to word with a snap of his fingers the day he swore in, or they excepted him to not do s**t. None of them realize what it takes to be a president. You can't just save the world while there are other countries there as well. You have to have agreements, negotiate, and understand the problems that he faces once he sits down at that desk. He can't just pick up the phone and go "LOL WHAT UP AFGHANISTAN! WE GUNNA COME UP IN THAT b***h AND PUNCH YOU IN THE FACE. SO SURRENDER AND START BEING A GOOD LITTLE SANDLOT FOR THE U.S. MKEE BYE BYE NOW."
