The actions... such as the whole good 'ole boy network of industry getting federal contracts. I feel like the presidency has become a position to be bought by proxy. I'm one of the nameless rabble of victims of the tech market crash, and the area I live in is more depressed economically than the majority of the nation. Colin Powell telling India he has no problem with them continuing to accept outsourced jobs from the U.S. really rubbed me the wrong way. Protectionism isn't always a bad thing.
But, perception is often reality. It could be the sources reporting these items that affect the way I feel distorting fact, twisting it to their own end.
For instance, NPR is widely recognized as decidedly liberal; Fox News is recognized as conservative. Both call themselves objective, but people have opinions, including those that report the news.
