In Jason Linkins article Healthcare, he argues that the Democratic Democracy has failed to launch its website on healthcare, but there hasn't been any solution to fix it. If it wasn't for Ann Kirkpatrick, not a lot of people would have heard of the website. The people signing up to this website were having problems because it kept on crashing and everyone then blamed Obama for it. In the article, Senator Mary Landrieu said that individuals should be able to keep their insurance plans even if the plans did not meet the requirements of the health law. Talks about if anything is to blame, it's the government not being up to date with the 21s century. Jason Linkins thinks that future presidents need to be more responsible for the people to get the information on their laptops and their mobile devices. I would have to agree with Linkins because while our President is held responsible for the things, whether negative or positive, in or out of our country, that in no way means all of the blame should be put on one person. The government, like anything else, is a group effort and many people are involved. To put such extreme blame on Obama, without much criticism to the ones actually at fault is unfair and a bit ridiculous. To do so without offering any assistance or positive solutions is even worse. It is very easy to put the blame on one person, but also very illogical. To me, it's common sense, particularly when it comes to government, that when something negative happens, many factors and many people were involved and influenced what went on. To not provide any solutions to issues, but to shine negative light and complain about them, is immature and selfish. Overall Democrats aren't going to have a bad year in the polls, they just need to have more faith in the version towards the country.

On Friday, February 7th 2014, CNN NEWS did a article on how Republicans slam the president job report. The argument was that Americans where wondering where the jobs in the nation were. You had 113,000 jobs available at the end of January, when economist said it was suppose to be 178,000. The reason why its dropping so low is because Americans are dropping out of the labor force. Over half the country over the age of sixteen was in the labor market, either they had one job or couldn't find one. The Republican Committee used the job report to judge Obamacare for it being at a low mark. If American was gonna be strong and have full employed workforce, it had to get rid of Obamacare because the American people couldn't afford it. The White house respond by saying they will defend their policies, but having more action needed. Overall America has added 8.5 millions the last 47 months, but still healing from the Great Recession.
