None of us ever know for sure what is in anyone's heart. I think with any President, you have to accept to a degree, or until proven otherwise that they have the best interest of the country in their heart.
Obama has NEVER been given that consideration from day one with many wingnuts, that's a fact. They don't like him, they don't want him as President, and they'll be damned if they'll like and/or approve anything he does, which is why they are protesting this speech.
If he said the grass is green, they'd say no it isn't.
Btw, the only people I've heard calling Obama a savior is the Right. I think most know he came in office having to dig us out of a hellhole and I have often said, I doubt it'll be fixed even in one term, let alone with only this President.
