He has in fact acted in a very bipartisan manner. I sure don't see how you can say this.
So you have to throw out the first three.
We will see on 4 & 5.
He has already kept multiple campaign promises - shall we list those?

the first is silly? He said "NO" on national tv on Meet the Press when asked in 2007 by Russert, "Are you running for President?" He wasnt coy, he didnt do that little deferral that politicians do. He said No, I am not running for president. While I suppose that we all have the right to change our minds he did do the exact opposite of what he said.
He said on more than one occasion that he would immediately withdraw the troops from Iraq usually followed up by wild cheering and him taking bows. I guess his version of immediate changed once the reality of the situation hit him.
You think he has acted bipartisan? Exactly what has he done that would be considered remotely bipartisan? Even the most liberal of liberals would have a hard time keeping a straight face on that one.
What do you mean we will see on #4 and #5? Do you ever actually read a paper other than the USA today? He has already taken the same stance as the Bush administration has on Executive power through his Justice Dept.
And earmarks? LOL I suppose that you missed the budget last week.....Yeah he'll get bipartisan tough on those....yeah sure he will
