Ghandi the world ( and US in particular) is too deep in *** to be saved.
What Obama will most likely do is rip the cover off of the stinking mess and let the whole world see it for what it is. He should let the holders of the worthless papers die of their own poison so that the US is no longer bled by these parasites. However the short sighted public will blame him for the country's woes instead of the parasites and he will not get a second term.
Per example:
We canadians had Mulroney spending like there was no tomorrow, came along Martin as finance minister and made us pay for our misspent life, result = Martin is villified and Mulroney a hero.
