Does Obama Care About Us Americans?

I base this nagging worry about whether Obama really cares about us Americans on two very violent events he has overseen. The first event came when he was an Illinois state senator and defeated several attempts to get aid applied to babies born after botched abortion attempts. Doctors had attempted to kill the babies while they were still inside their "loving" mothers, but had failed, and the babies were  born alive.The practice was to ruthlessly ignore the babies until they got with the program and died. Just as you and I would die if bound hand and foot, put into a broom closet, and ignored. These would be excruciatingly painful deaths. I am a father, both natural and adoptive, a grandfather, and a former child protective services worker and supervisor. I lost my job because I spoke out against another social service agency letting a disturbed, preganant foster child kill herself - and thereby her baby too. I cannot remain silent about such sick, depraved behavior. Obama sailed past the Born-Alive? You Die!
issue because the only national figure who brought it up loudly was Sean Hannity. Obama was elected president.
 Now, four years later, the second Obama event rasies its ugly head.
The criminally ill-defended consulate in Benghazi, Libya is over-run, and the occupants killed. Vastily outnumbered, but fighting heroically and skillfully, the CIA employees and  contractors, including Navy Seals, find themselves able to hold on for eight hours, surely enough time for reinforcements to come to the rescue. Obama has the live-feed of the battle in the White House from a drone, but he does nothing. There are two issues here: the first is that the American consulate, the American Ambassador (who is killed) his staff and the CIA staff are being attacked. The second issure is that the Commander-In- Chief of the USA has been briefed on the situation and needs to make a decision. Instead of making a decision that could make him lose his re-election, he triangles in a third issue : he tells the two men who had informed him of the seige at Benghazi, Leon Panetta, Secretary of Defense, and General Martin Dempsey, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, that it was up to them to make a decision about what to do if anything. By triangling in these two men, he passes the buck and the responsibility to them, he hopes. Obama goes off to a party. Nero fiddles while Rome burns, Obama parties while the Benghazi consulate falls. Why Panetta and General Dempsey don't call in help to the Benghazi consulate which was in an Alamo-like death fight needs to be asked  publicly and loudly by a U.S. Senator like Marco Rubio. A little patriot like me should not have to ask. The two men unbelievably do nothing, and the last man, a Navy Seal, is finally killed later that night, again all on live-TV in the Situation Room at the White House. This is criminal negligence! Be completely unbiased and use the Peter Principle on the issue: that is, to do the most loving thing. Obama sees on live video Americans fighting for their lives because they are vastly out numbered. What was the most loving thing to do at that point? Surely, you will agree that it would be getting the Americans some reinforcements or a plane, manned or unmanned, to bomb and strafe the attackers. Obama did not do that. Instead, he handed the decision over to two subordinates with no guidance from the Commander-In-Chief. I don't think any sane person who was not a Muslim sympathizer would disagree with me when I say that Obama did not do the most loving thing. Not even close.
 If my information is correct, Obama has turned his back on two precious segments of the American population - new-born babies and American fighting men. I worry about when he is going to - am I being too emotional?- stab other Americans in the back, like you and me. I don't think any American or America as a country is safe with this man.
