As far as health care reform, I would give Obama a B. He seems to be making a clear effort for change, but I honestly don't know enough about the current health care system to tell how big of changes are needed. But he really needs to begin pushing his health care through congress, because it doesn't matter how good his ideas are if they are never put into action.
With the current economy, I'd give Obama a C. But I'm not so sure its fair to grade him on the state of the economy, because we live in a free economy, where the government does not have totally control over the economic situation. Obama has tried a couple of stimulus plans, but he has yet to make a big change in the current recession.
I would give Obama a C on the War in the middle east. I understand that we cant just pull the troops out of Iraq, but I think that Obama needs to make a bigger push towards getting our men and women out of there. He is currently debating how many troops to send into Afghanistan, its complicated and I don't know what he should be doing but I hope he can push for peace.

I think we agree on a lot of this stuff. He should keep trying for Congress to pass his health care reform bills. But then again, it'd be good for the bill to work so that it could be passed (if you know what I mean, that was a bad explanation). For the economy, Obama shouldn't have bailed out that many banks. And for the war, I agree with what you said. Oeace would be a good thing, but at the same time we shouldn't just give up.
