George Bush has been in office for 7 1/2 years. The first six the eocnomy was fine. A little over one year ago: 1) Consumer confidence stood at a 2 1/2 year high 2) Regular gasoline sold for $2.19 a gallon 3) The unemployment rate was 4.5% 4) The DOW JONES hit a record high-- 14,000 + 5) American's were buying new cars, taking cruises, vacations overseas, living large! But American's wanted 'CHANGE'! So, in 2006 they voted in a Democratic Congress and yes--we got 'CHANGE' all right. In the PAST YEAR: 1) Consumer confidence has plummeted 2) Gasoline is now over $4 a gallon and climbing! 3) Unemployment is up to 5.5% (a 10% increase) 4) Americans have seen their home equity drop by $12 TRILLION DOLLARS and prices are still dropping 5) 1% of American homes are in foreclosure 6) as I write, THE DOW is probing another low ~~ $2.5 TRILLION DOLLARS HAS EVAPO RATED FROM THEIR STOCKS, BONDS & MUTUAL FUNDS INVESTMENT PORTFOLIOS! YES, IN 2006 AMERICA VOTED FOR CHANGE...AND WE SURE GOT IT! REMEMBER THE PRESIDENT HAS NO CONTROL OVER ANY OF THESE ISSUES, ONLY CONGRESS DOES. NOW THE DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT CLAIMS HE IS GOING TO REALLY GIVE US CHANGE, AND HE HAS THE BACKING OF A DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS!!!! JUST HOW MUCH MORE 'CHANGE' DO YOU THINK YOU CAN STAND? DO YOUR RESEARCH!!!! Poor people have been voting for democrats for 50 years and they are still poor. The democrats keep the oppressed people oppressed by making them slaves to the government when they offer all of these programs to help people that are able to work but won't because the government is handing them a monthly paycheck. People get so mad at Republicans because they want to help companies big and small with tax breaks. When was the last time a poor man offered you a job. I do believe people are going to vote for or against Obama based on race, and some strictly because of party affiliation. I wish more Americans would vote based on their own research of a potential candidate. I am a conservative Christian American registered Independent, I don't fault anyone for their beliefs if they believe differently than I, but I do know several conservative African-Americans that are voting for Obama strictly because he is a black man. They don't know what he stands for, what his plans for our country are, all they know is he is going to change things. That is their right, because we all live in a FREE country. I think voting based on race or party is ignorant. I would like to see where one day party affiliation doesn't matter and people vote based on how closely the candidates values match their own. "I look to a day when people will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character." by Martin Luther King Jr. This is something we should all try to do, no matter what color we are. Do you think Martin Luther King Jr. would have supported a candidate that supports partial birth abortions just because he is black? Do you think spending more money on programs is going to fix the eocnomy? I heard Obama say he was going to fix the eocnomy from the bottom up, which means most of the working people that make above $30,000 a year wont qualify for anything. How many stimulus checks did everyone get when Clinton was in office? Yet he supposedly balanced the budget and had a surplus of money. By the way in my house if their is still a deficit in the banking account then the budget is not balanced, Clinton did reduce spending and did not add to the overall deficit for 2 years while he was in office, but when he left office our country still had a deficit. Again do the the research. Obama wants to spend a lot of money, he is going to tax business'. Some of you say great he needs too. What does a business do when their taxes or materials go up, they pass it on to the consumer. We will pay one way or the other.
