that is the President's job and responsibility to steer the boat to right direction (or to his direction). So far - he spent too much time talking to cameras and less time leading the country. If he wants to get something done, then he needs to get off the camera and start leading the country.
The President of United States' main responsibility isn't to address the issue. That's for campaign talk. or Speaker of the House. In case Obama forgot, his campaign was long over last year. His main and only responsibility is to LEAD THE COUNTRY. maybe Speaker of the House is more suitable for Obama?
