I am not concerned with what his website states. I am more interested in forum members sharing what THEY feel will be his priorities during his first 4 years. What aspects of the "change" he promised will be implemented during his first week or his first year. Look over the OP and you will have a better idea of what this thread is about.

Zepher, what do you think he will do during the first 6 months of office. What is the change you expect him to bring during his first year? It's a simple question that only askes for an opinion on what his supporters expect from him, based on his campaign promise of "change".
I think we can reasonably expect him to do all or some of what he says he will do in that website.
I expect a repudiation of the PATRIOT ACT and a shutdown of Guantanamo Bay.
I expect dignity, articulation, eloquence, and, most importantly, a high level of competence to return to the executive branch.
I expect Obama to reverse the curtailment of our civil liberties that we've seen under George Bush.

I couldnt care less about what his PR folks put on his website. I only care about action, or in some cases inaction. Do you really think he is going to do all of the things he has listed? I mean honestly, because he wont. What is he going to run on in four years if he actually follows through?
I think he's going to do some or all of that. If he does all of it I will be pleasantly surprised--very pleasantly, and very surprised. I don't think he will manage all of it; hell, he may not even manage most of it. Of course, even if he did manage all of it I have a feeling you still wouldn't like him.

President Elect Obama is going to be OUR next President, OUR Comander and Chief.

I do not plan on sitting around and bitching about him, but I will not compromise my belifs. I really do hope he does well, but I will speak out when I think he is error.
