THOSE are your complaints? Jesus man, at least pick something of substance if you're gonna complain about the President.
Your insurance company decided not to comply with new standards ... that's not within his control. He shouldnt have made the statement - but if that is your big complaint then your being rather picky.
Trayvon Martin could have been MY son as well. So?
He mistakenly praised Bowe Bergdahl? and? You REALLY expect this to rank as high on the immorality chart as propogating a lie to take this country to war and killing thousands of our kids so the VP could make oil profits?
Your list is rather laughable. Hell, at least say something legitimate. He didn't close Gitmo, he didn't follow thru on marital equality promises etc...
The crap you have thrown here is trivial and not even amoral. It was more mistake.
Regarding the ACA, this is not even close to accurate. Insurance companies and health care providers were "forced" to change because of the legislation enacted. These stakeholders were not consulted during the policy-making process nor were they given preliminary information to account for short-term changes that were needed to bridge/buffer the potential effects on insurance. Yet all we heard is how health care costs would decrease across the board and you would be able to keep the same provider. Now when it comes to keeping the same provider, people do change plans through their employers and employers change insurance providers. My personal anecdote is that this really affects people, like my retired parents, who had a health insurance plan based upon their previous employer/pension. Their basic health care costs (doctor visits, procedures, OOP expenses) have more than doubled....which sucks for them. They will use Medicare in some cases for certain services, but Medicare certainly limits your choices in health care.
And even worse is when a you have some democratic members of congress voting for a bill without ever reading through it....and then admitting it. Yes, it was 1800 pages long, but if you're trying to enact legislation on an industry that makes up almost 1/5 of our GDP, then you better damn well have at least an elementary understanding of what you're voting for. This wasn't a bill to fund highways some where, it was legislation that would drastically affect tens of millions of people. Yet it was rushed through and was a strict partisan bill without any input from the other side.
And lest we forget Johnathan Gruber telling everyone how stupid they are and you have the recipe for how this administration operates. The implication here is that the public, being rather simple-minded, can be distracted from what’s actually in the law by talking about cost control, which isn’t really something the law addresses. The original assertion that it would drop the average families premiums by $2,500 dollars a year. But, anyone who understands how premiums are calculated knew at the time the assertion was dubious. An average reduction of $2,500 for a family of four across the board is too neat and tidy a figure to reflect the complicated actuarial realities of premium rate-setting. But no matter, what we’ve actually seen in the nearly five years since the law passed is that premiums have gone up considerably. By some estimates, the average rates in the individual market have increased nearly 25 percent compared to what they would have been without Obamacare, and have increased measurably in 45 states:

I sell systems to acute care facilities and hospitals. THus, I've seen the effects, firsthand, on what the ACA has done to hospital bottom lines and the overall patient care/workflow environment in hospitals. And I'm not against health care reform, but this was done in a manner that is shameful and with no respect to the patients that it is currently and eventually having adverse effects on.
