I am pretty confident that when the presidential candidate is selected, he is already being manipulated by the financial houses. They make sure that the president is weak pawn who can be easily manipulated. I am also sure that this has been the case for a while especially after JFK.

The reason that Obama is doing nothing, is because he is actually powerless to do anything - just a little puppet on a chain. To understand the underlying trend have a look at the last few presidents - and take a look at the financial laws that were repealed over time (like the glass steagal act).

One of the weaknesses in the US system is that the presidential post has so much power concentrated in it. Once you are able to get a stranglehold around this position, you can manipulate this from behind the scenes and no one will ever suspect that something is wrong.
