Did the people of the United States really elect Obama man as President?
He’s such an anethema to the American belief system and I include the ‘liberal belief’ sytem in that description. I rarely agreed with President Clinton (and the Lewinski thing was just a complete embarrassment) but, on some level I understood Clinton’s connection to the voters. President Obama, on the other hand, doesn’t even strike me as someone who’s comfortable with the belief system of 80% of the country. Most of us believe in free market capitalism and feel success should be financially rewarded. Obama seems to think the system owes everyone something.
To take this even further it seems as if Obama is trying to divide the country not between left and right political philosophies (which is always a healthy divide I think) but, between white people and non-white people. This would be dissastrous as our political battles would then turn from ‘how’ to best run the country into simply ‘who’ should run the country...regardless of philosophy....kind of like the so called democracy the Sunni’s and Shiites have put togeher in Iraq.
Romney is not always the most comfortable speech-giver and some of his ideas are flawed and probably political but, at least I feel like he (and Ryan) has the best interest of America at his core. Obama just seems to have a big angry chip on his shoulder.
I could hardly contain my rage reading that quote from Byron York. To Obama the owner of a corner grocery store is an “enemy”. This is Communism circa 1917, or 1950 at the latest! Only in America among such academic wannabe revolutionaries. And Americans voted for this Mugabe? In 1917 and in 1945 it took violent revolutions (and FDR) to install such people in foreign governments. And we fool ourselves that we have a near perfect democratic republic. Where are our leaders, our media to educate the voters?! I’m seeing Germany in the 1930s, Argentina in the 1940s.
Romney cares about the best interests of Romney.
He’s a big-government nanny-stater known as the father of both gay marriage and Obamacare (in its Romneycare version) in MA.
Like Obama, he’s ambitious, sees himself as something godlike, and has been running for president for at least six years now.
The only difference is that thanks to his personal fortune, Romney’s had the leisure to do this. Obama had to get Saudis and Marxists to fund him.
So I guess maybe this is an improvement, but not much.
