That's why he has a real hard time getting support and co-signers for any of his bills. He can sit in the white house twiddling his thumbs.

When the public sees this, they will vote for senators and congressmen/women who will align themselves to his values.
If you he gets elected president, this means a large chunk of people align themselves with his vision. This would translate in who the public will vote 2 years down the line for congress and senate.
Do you know why Obama's support has decreased. It's because he backed down on what he promised during his campaign. Not because he pursued and was rejected by the house in the issues he was proposing, but he acted upon on the opposite of what he promised in 2008.
Obama wanted to make wall street execs pay ? Did he ? No? Did he even try ? No. Instead, he hired the very same people who advised in orchestrating the deregulation of rules that were placed since after the depression. The same regulations that were placed to prevent a financial depression.
Did Obama close down guantanamo like he promised ? No. Did he end the war on Iraq ? The fucking troops are still there dying for NOTHING. The soldiers are not saving America, democracy, or fighting for freedom. They are being lead by a government that wants to steal resources from overseas.
The scary thing is, if you talk to some Americans, they would agree that stealing resources from oversees is their right. That is a fucking scary thought. That's why you have GOP candidates who focusing on Iran. If we really love freedom, why won't the USA invade North Korea and have South Korea help out ? Well, there's no money to be made in it.
