“America works best when we work together " --- Tom Donahue, U.S. Chamber of Commerce
There's acknowledgment that Barack Obama (or any president) is in position whereby there may be contradictory objectives i.e. as POTUS and Head of a political party. What may be good viable idea is to not consider the president the head of any particular party.
The U.S. President, First Lady, and the White House Administration is Independent whose chief objective should be doing what's best for the nation not any particular party. Adopting this concept requires people to re-think how we view the relationship between the president and political parties.
Adopting this concept may reduce; though not completely eradicate the influence of partisan politics in the decision-making process of POTUS.
It doesn't matter what Chris Wallace or Chris Matthews says, POTUS is NOT the head of any political party. The president is nonpartisan. The moment when an individual takes the presidential oath he owes no allegiance to any political party. The president should be Independent...able to exercise freedom to accept ideas from varied sources without respect to political or ideological affiliation. The president's focus should be 'Is the idea good for America?' Period.
Too many times BOTH parties have used the presidency as a trophy or/and have 'pimped out' the president for own partisan purposes. It's time to change.
Indeed, 'We the People' may more accurately assess the 'job performance' of the president independently from the job of Congress and the public attitudes towards the political parties. The propose change may encourage responsibility among all leaders...reduce ability of all leaders to hide behind the goodwill/disfavour of the president...promote leaders' responsibility towards the People.
Indeed, it's time to change. It's time to judge EACH political party 's vision on its own merits. It's time to judge the members' of EACH political party performance on own merits. It's time to judge the president on his own merits. It's time to stop hiding behind the approval/disapproval of each other. It's time to accept responsibility.
One thing that should be emphasize is Citizens' Responsibility.
We ask alot from our leaders but often times we are not fufilling our responsibility...and it goes beyond voting. We need to be duly informed of the issues. We need to respect all points of view.
Indeed, We are the change we seek.
It's time for An Independent President --- Someone who does not deny party labels but put them aside; put America first before party ideology.
Freedom from Politics Being principled not partisan
Freedom from Family Being principled not personal
Freedom from Race Promoting principles not people
Freedom from the Past Promoting precedents base on principles not patterns
It's time to have a Independent President who not only understands Vision but actually has a coherent, steady common-sense vision that would continue to lead America forward.

Indeed "The pundits, the pundits like to slice-and-dice our country into Red States and Blue States; Red States for Republicans, Blue States for Democrats."
It's time to support someone who believes as do an increasing number of reasonable Americans that enough of the political games and brinkmanship. 'In times like these' require that we live up to America's purpose. Act in accordance with realization that "there is not a liberal America and a conservative America — there is the United States of America. There is not a Black America and a White America and Latino America and Asian America — there’s the United States of America."
