What an amazing piece of work. There is now an iron clad method by which to judge the 44th president of the United States. It will be facinating to compare rhetoric and actual programs.
Thank you,

WOW. Megadittos...Glenn Beck... I am a programmer, and would be willing to offer some assistance should you want to follow magnus205’s suggestion.
Mr. O. has been pretty good at publishing information, and then pulling it down as soon as it gets too much attention (he might be held accountable for it)...All of these speeches need to be converted to PDF with proper citing of source and time it was “archived.”
Please do us a favor, though...Even though there is no function, Excel sees that there’s some macro code (as author you may/may not get the warning we get)...Delete the VB code attached to Sheet1 (CONTENTS) so no one freaks out that this is gonna blow up their system.

I compiled a list in text format, and it was several hundred pages. This works much better! Very nice!
For someone that ran on a mantra of “change”, a large portion of his promises were to simply not change a thing. I haven’t run the numbers, but I am guessing he started off at 25-30% promise keeping, but I doubt it will last.
I do not remember any politician, in my lifetime, making so many promises. Ideas or thoughts are one thing, a promise should be as solid as a an old fashion handshake. We’ll see.
Thanks!

I love your spreadsheet and the 37 categories they fit in. When did you start compiling your information? Are you on Facebook? I’m putting together a book about Obama and the End Times and I’d like to be able to include your Thesis of Campaign Promises in my Book as an Appendix or Chapter? Would that be okay with you? If you wanted to you could probably create your own book surrounding the 895 Campaign Promises.
Thanks so much for what you’ve done.

Todd,
You have done a great job of collecting and referencing Obama’s promises, and I will be glad to help you in tracking these promises through this term. Many of these promises are addressed in the current ‘Stimulus’ (Special Interest, Pork, Campaign Pay-Back) Bill. I would prefer that he does break the majority of these promises.
I have one word of caution. Over the last year the Obama campaign ‘adjusted’ the information on their Official Campaign Website many times as the situation changed. I hope you have copied and saved the pages in your reference links, to guard against these promises suddenly disappearing.
Excellent work!
Thank you,
Tim

Incredible. Nothing short of incredible. Let’s help Todd by feeding him as much information as we can on what will surely be the longest list of broken promises a politician has ever made. The mainstream media will never expose the audacity of deceit perpetrated by our first MTV-Affirmative Action-Stealth president. Come 2010, a complete list of the kept and broken promises of a truly dangerous chief executive will be a handy tool to bring to the campaign. It is only because of information like this spreadsheet can give us that we can limit the Messiah to one term.

What do we count as First Days? I would suggest 100. He made soooooo many references to ‘one of the first things I’ll do is“ fill in the blank (ie: insert your change here)
Where do we draw the line to say that he has failed to keep a promise when he put a vague timeline on it? I think 100 is more than generous.... Of course, BHO is being more than generous, but that’s with our money, not his own....
