It’s that time again everyone!
Presidential elections, this time it will be more important
than ever. Do we keep the current president or replace him with the GOP’s
candidate Mitt Romney? I for one will be joining many and digging my heels to
say I got President Obama’s back for 2012. Let’s not forget everyone, many of
the mistakes that have gone wrong with our country were happening with the last
administration and Obama picked up a ball that was already in play. A quick
recap, in 2008 record numbers of job losses were getting reported as Bush
exited and Obama took office. How quick we forget! Also, both the auto industry
and the banks needed to be bailed out. All of this was happening prior to Obama
and let’s not forget two wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.
Progress is slow and we fooled ourselves into thinking it
would change so quickly. We placed GOP in control of our congress and they have
used their positions for political gain rather than what is best for our
country. Now I don’t think one party should have total control but the GOP has
stopped progression of many bills that could cut our budget and raise taxes on
wealthy Americans. It’s time to change and stop being naive. Why should we
offer incentives to business prior to seeing them hire? That is putting the
cart before the horse. If corporations want tax cuts there should be
stipulations that are placed that state, “you must first hire x number of people
in order to receive x amount of a tax incentive”. We can no longer afford to
offer incentives and hope that corporation hire rather than pocket the extra
profits.
Investments must be made in education; our future depends on
our children getting the best education in the world. It’s time we go back to
the golden years where the best of the best came from America. Also, if
immigrants come into the country to get education they should have the
opportunity to gain citizenship. Why not keep these bright minds in our
country? Remember there are a lot of immigrants that came here and created
great things.
Finally, America is safer due to his choices in office. Let’s
recap; Obama gave the order to go into Pakistan without prior approval to go
after Osama Bin Laden. This mission, if failed, would have been used by the
opposing party as their example to push their agenda. The mission was not a
failure and resulted in the elimination of this horrible man that killed so
many people. Everyone was so quick to brush is off and say he deserved no
credit, yes the military deserves a huge portion of the credit but it was his
order that made it so. Which he would be hung by if failed. Also, Obama helped
us get rid of another monster in Libya. Muammar Gaddafi was removed from power
and killed by the people he oppressed for so many years. The administration
went to war the right way, getting United Nation approval and not taking the
burden of the mission unlike Bush with the two wars he initiated.
Join me in 2012 in re-electing President Barack Obama and
let him finish the job he was first elected to do.
Thanks everyone!
