President Obama has been named Time Magazine’s Person of the year 2012.
The reason is that President Obama has become the symbol in some ways the architect of the new America. Now for that I say kudos. President Obama has been disappointed in that the economy has not moved fast enough. I for one have disagreed with the president on certain issues but not for his tenacious efforts to make America a better place.
Let no one deny the fact that President Obama cares about family, the poor and the middle class. He has shown deep concern for the victims of the shooting at Sandy Hook elementary school, and those hurting from the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. Time magazine has rightly made President Obama Person of the year because he cares for America and the problems of many Americans.
