I think we are currently stuck in a national funk, predefined to fail for 8 years.
There is NO WAY Obama was not going to be president. The GOP even went all-out to guarantee that.
We do however have a chance to turn this around. America is only in this mess for 3 1/2 more years.
Granted that is a long time, but we’re more than halfway through this nightmare.
Just saying, it is not hopeless.
Start by bringing back American jobs.
Now.
In 3 1/2 years, you won't recognize the United States. To be honest with you, I don't recognize it now. Maybe I'm too old.
America is only in this mess for 3 1/2 more years.

There’s a crop of Obama clones waiting in the wings. With the help of the massive base of low information voters and the swelling numbers of Takers there’s a good chance that the downhill slide will continue for another 8 years, barring some type of calamity that necessitates a reset.
Start by opening up the oil and gas industry to public lands and the Keystone pipeline. Energy IS the future, with the focus aimed at lowering costs through the free market. We will be the worlds energy producer, and after that point we can focus on more exotic energy like fusion technology.
Cut the costs to doing business which are associated with any sort of taxes.
Slash government, EPA, IRS while simplifying the tax code, apply the gold standard to lock down inflation.
If it isn’t necessary to defend our borders and vital national interest, slash it and shut it down. NEA to the Dept of Ed.
Abolish Obamacare and deregulate the entire healthcare system, including the FDA. Yes, deregulate it and let the free market...free. Costs would plummet and quality would be rewarded. New doctors we need would be flooding in, applying to the new legal immigration system which would NOT reward being “illegal”.
Do we have the guts? The character?
It IS up to us.
