maybe Obama should caved in to the Tbaggers and stopped the ACA from going into effect, and then avoiding the govt shutdown that cost 24 billion and accomplished absolutely nothing. Is that the kind of non divisive POTUS you are hoping for, and will have success.
That's one out of a billion examples I can think of where I think your idea is a dream.

A President could be successful without that quality. I just think it is what this country needs right now.
Obama shouldn't have caved. I don't consider the actions he took in that situation to be divisive. There's a big difference between action and rhetoric. One is important to the process the other is meaningless in the process but can be extremely harmful when digested by the public.
Don't you think guys like Limbaugh, Hannity, Levin etc are harmful? All they do is spew rhetoric every day.
