Barack Obama had almost nothing to do with killing bin laden
http://e n.wikipedia.o rg/wiki/DeathofOsamabinLaden#Identityofhis_courier , down to bin ladens compound, they didn't know for sure he was there until 2010 but did know it was there and made to hold somebody of importance. And plus even Bush knew the importance of tactical planning, and to not just rush in guns blazing, no matter what anybody said he wasn't a "shoot first, ask question later" kind of person, a plan such as the one to take down bin laden would have taken months or even years to plan to make sure absolutely nothing went wrong, while I do agree that the plan worked for obama it still wasn't good to rush in like he did, maybe rather than a raid on his compound some kind of infiltration mission, hell, a sniper a half mile away would have been a better choice.

The same wikipedia page, at the bottom of the "Intelligence gathering" section, it quotes a source that says "Despite what officials described as an extraordinarily concentrated collection effort leading up to the operation, no U.S. spy agency was ever able to capture a photograph of bin Laden at the compound before the raid or a recording of the voice of the mysterious male figure whose family occupied the structure's top two floors." If they couldn't spot the guy for a photograph, they're not going to be able to shoot him from a mile away either. Regardless, you've crushed your own argument. This source indicates that the CIA didn't know the location was the hiding place of bin Laden until Obama had already been president for two years.
