either way things are gonna be tough but look at this way obama had documents forged so he could be in office they all lie….whats sad is that obama is trying to cut military size down, taking away raises that they get….in case you didn’t relize we are still at war with terrorism…. why are we cutting money from people that are protecting american freedoms, blah blah blah say what you want about why were there…. we’re there because they attacked us, yes remember 9/11, ok good now think back real hard to pearl harbor what happened then? we went to war correct yes i think so. 9/11 was the SECOND attack on american soil, why would we screw over the pay of the troops which is what democrats are very well know for? if you think hard and use some common sense it would point in the direction if we pull out of afganistan, kosovo, seriya, list goes on what makes you guys think that they won’t get everything back that we fought so long to take away and pull 9/11 or something worse again? sorry obama your not getting my vote….

Please tell me where are you getting your jobs number. When Obama took office the unemployment in the raw was 7.8% it is at 8.6 %I am talking raw numbers. Which means not including seasonal jobs. When Bush took office the rate was 4.6 %and when he left it was at 7.8 % Under Obama private sectors actually gained jobs. I am a citizen but I was an immigrant just like you. I do not see anything in Obama plan that got you so upset. And I think Dream Act will protect 800 000 young people who were brought here illegally . This programm will grant permission for these kids to stay if they finish high school. Romney said he is oppose to any such programm. Lately, I notice hostility from core republican to any kind of immigrant . Obama care is complicated, but it is very similar to Romney plan , and do not fool yourself that Ryan’s plan will work. Some republicans already said they will not support it in congress. Please share the Romney plan that will make it all better. “Trust me “just does not work. See what Reagan said about trust me politician:” “Trust me” government asks that we concentrate our hopes and dreams on one man; that we trust him to do what’s best for us. My view of government places trust not in one person or one party, but in those values that transcend persons and parties. The trust is where it belongs – in the people..” I will vote Obama. hope not hate . Truth not lies. Separation of government and religion.

I’m a democrat voting republican this time around. Obama cannot run in his record: 46MM people on foodstamps, employers working their employees to death. $4 trillion dollars in debt. 23 million jobs lost. 2MM mcjobs jobs created in 4 years and most of those pay minimum wage. An immigration policy that really stinks for immigrants like me – who came in legally. A foreign policy that makes us look a like joke. Finally, healthcare reform that does not address the cost of healthcare – but instead will raise the cost (most to be footed by taxpayers).
I voted for this guy. He’s had 4 years and has done nothing to improve out situation. Heck, letting the economy do its thing probably would have helped more. What a disappointment. Mr. Obama…you are fired!
