Immigrant voice (naturalized US citizen) here:
Isn’t it more American to support the President, since he is after all the elected commander in chief, and if he fails (in the real sense of the word, not just his policies failing) doesn’t our country fail with him?
I don’t mean that he or his policies should not be criticized or scrutinized, but to wish that he fails, seems to evoke something apocalyptic. It also makes for bad politics, I agree with Zombie on that.
So while I voted for the competition and certainly have reservations specially regarding his foreign policies, I do wish that the president does well for his and my country.
