Oprah Winfrey 'not disappointed in Obama'

Oprah Winfrey has insisted that US President Barack Obama has established significant accomplishments in his two years in office.

In an interview with Parade, the talkshow host noted that she has not been disappointed by the politician's term of office thus far.

"I think that no one understands until you've been in that seat the enormous pressure to please and satisfy everybody," she said.

The star continued: "And I think instead of being grateful for where we are and what he has done, we've forgotten that we were on the brink of a depression when he took over this office.

"And as everybody celebrates the holiday season and sits around with their families, regardless of your circumstance, we could've had breadlines. How soon we forget that."

Winfrey, who endorsed Obama in the 2008 US Presidential election, also revealed that she plans to support him again should he decide to seek a second term.

Earlier this week, the TV presenter asserted that she intends for her upcoming Oprah Winfrey Network to be "mindful television".
