If Obama is too liberal what is Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren ideology? Maoist I'm guessing according to these American idiots.

According to this he ain't "too liberal" (if liberal at all)

In other news, a large part of the population of the US knows nothing about politics.

Pretty much this.

Obama is at best a moderate Democrat.

Can't be easy governing a nation where 40% if not more are "conservative" meaning a Democrat has to steer close to the center

Clearly in 2008, Obama/Biden were closer my 'left-leaning' Christian Democratic core

Also, Obama kind of shifted to the right after becoming president.

He had to 'compromise' on extending the fiscally reckless Bush tax cuts in their entirety to ensure the extension of unemployment compensation such is the dogmatic unflexible nature of the contemporary GOP. Then there's national security but that, if anything, aligned him closer to me
