November Election

Midterms at WSU this week, but I realized I haven't posted in awhile.  Here's another blog listing accomplishments of Barack Obama, since there are so many people that feel as though he hasn't done anything worthwhile in office.  Also, I wanted to point out that we gave Bush eight years to create the mess we were in, bringing us almost another depression, how can we expect anyone to pull us out of the hole that he dug within just a couple of years?  We can't.  He has been working toward a better America, with very little support from Congress.  Come November, we will see whether the majority of our country is for progressing forward or if they want to take several steps back by voting in Romney.  I'm tired of counting the lies in the debates that he and his VP candidate tell.  If they are already this way, putting them in office is a really bad idea.  I'm not saying Obama is perfect; no human is.  I was disappointed at the lack of fight in him during the debates, but he didn't sink to Romney's level either.  He needs to step it up and be proud of what he's accomplished and point them out, modesty isn't that great in a situation like this.  People don't know what he's done because he, unlike most other politicians, doesn't brag about them every chance he can get.  He's probably disappointed that he hasn't made as much change as what he wanted, so he might see that as a failure.  Well, he's had about four years to begin filling the huge hole Bush dug us and threw us in, as well as adding water so we could slip around in the mud for awhile before being able to fix it.  Critique President Obama, but give him another chance, another four years to see what he really can do, now that he finally fixed some of Bush's failures.

Keep in mind, that with Romney, people's rights will most likely get taken away, whereas with Obama, we'll continue to move forward toward equality.  If we truly love our country, we will vote for someone who advocates for those who are seen as "inferior" to people like Romney and the rich.  None of us are inferior just because of a difference in gender, sexual preference, skin color, economic status, etc, so we should step up and support people who see that as the truth.

I received my absentee ballot in the mail yesterday, and I am excited to vote for Obama again to truly see what more he can do for this country.
