Due to the subject of his new film Green Zone, Matt Damon has been immersed in the politics of the Iraq war. The actor campaigned extremely hard for Barack Obama‘s presidency and finds himself pondering the results. It seems he expected in very different 2010.
“Politics is compromise,” said Damon, who feels Obama compromised too much. “I’m disappointed in the health care plan and in the troop buildup in Afghanistan. Everyone feels a little let down because, on some level, people expected all their problems to go away. But real change comes from everyday people. You can’t wait for a leader.”
Well spoken.
He thinks that the President deserves more time.
And we hope he makes the most of it!
