President Obama is a socialist and a vapid demagogue who has been educated beyond the level of his intelligence. He is the choice of a puerile and spoiled electorate who want to be taken care of and obtain handouts from a parental figurehead.
I can't believe the West won the Cold War. The Cold War was a competition of economic ideologies. In the 1960s, we used to have sincere debates about which economic system was better -- a socialist, centrally-planned economy, or a capitalist, free-market economy. The debate is over. By 1990, even the Russians and Chinese were forced to implicitly admit the superiority of market economies. But while our former enemies were busy converting their socialist systems to market economies, we were happily rushing headlong into socialism.

In the U.S., we exist in a curious state of denial. We acknowledge the inferiority of socialism but continue to become more and more socialistic. Every attempt to shrink the size of government or repeal a regulation brings about a shriek, like a bottle being pulled out of the mouth of an infant. I cannot recall a Republican president or Congress who reduced the size of the federal government. No one wants to surrender a special privilege or entitlement.

this country is at the tipping point. I see wide scale unrest and rioting on the horizon. Time to prepare.
If Obama wins, it will take 50 years to reverse this trend.

I think one thing that would bring huge change to our country would be require one to show a net positive number on their 1040 in order to vote.
Might even incent some people to work.
People keep saying that the Democrats believe in socialism. They don’t. they believe in control and theft from the public treasury. There isn’t even one Democrat who thinks that socialism works. They do believe that it’s a good smokescreen to hide behind while they raid the public treasury.

America deserves something better than this fraud—snake oil salesman. He’s a good talker, give Obama that, but hes a poor doer. We deserve Palin now or...someone else.
