I didn't realize it was the President's job to make your house payment. Many, not all of course, but many of the people in mortgage trouble bought a house that was too expensive for them in the first place. In addition they are in financial trouble because of mismanagement in other areas ( leased cars, credit cards, etc. ) which exacerbates their problems. Champagne on a beer budget. The end result of all this will be a gov't bailout no matter who is President.

And besides, before your girl bumped into Obama one heard the words "unity" and "change" spewing from her mouth all the time. So is it no longer as important or is she just demonstrating her penchant for prevarication so more?
