Samuel L. Jackson to Obama: Stop Dropping Your Gs, Be F***ing Presidential talks about how Jackson criticized our Harvard-educated President for trying to relate.

Jackson is known the grammar police on Twitter apparently and thinks the Harvard educated President should not try to "fit in" when talking to the every day person. According to Jackson, there is a time and a place for everything (there is) and when talking on a national stage, one should enunciate properly.

Is Jackson right?

I don't have a problem with the way President Obama speaks. I do however have a problem with the fact that he is still campaigning long after the election has ended. He travels around the country, gather up people to stand around him and gives speeches about what we should believe and what we should do. He's the president, you don't try and convince people to like you. Instead get in there and do your job. Just do what you have to do and what you think needs to be done and do it. People don't have to like you, and as president most people won't like you, so why bother. I don't agree with many of Obama's stances but I'd respect him a lot more if he would just go and do them instead of trying to convince me to agree with him. /end rant.

Often times presidents have an easier time gaining the support of other politicians in congress when he has the support of their constituents back home. Though that hasn't really been the case with this congress.

I agree that he spends too much time campaigning, but I believe he is forced to because parts of Congress refuse to work with him. He has no choice to appeal to the masses. If there was a way to make deals with the leaders on Capitol Hill directly, I'm sure he would do it.

If this came from a white guy, he would be accused of racism.
