How would you rate President Barack Obama’s
handling of the crises in the Middle East? 

I’ll rate him a seven out of ten. He’s doing a good job as a world leader.

I admire how the president is playing his hand. He’s staying consistent with his campaign message of “change.” Let the people (all over the world) experience change!

I’ll rate the president an eight. Reason being [is] that he’s doing what he said he’d do as far as “change.”

The president is doing the best one can under the current circumstances. The developments in North Africa are unprecedented and moving too quickly to have ready-made answers.

A+ Every country is supposed to take care of their own. Just because we’re a superpower doesn’t mean we’re supposed to stick our noses into everybody’s problem. The president’s allowing the people to make their own choices.

I feel that the president is doing a good job. Other presidents would force U.S. policy in the respective country, but Obama is allowing them to handle their own problems.
