10 Reasons Why I Will be Voting for You President Obama

[Man_Kind]

From a email I received.

How DO YOU EXPLAIN THIS AWAY - - :

This election has me very worried. So many things to consider.

I voted for Obama. McCain was a Washington insider and we don't need any more of them.

I have changed my mind three times, since then. I watch all the news channels, jumping from one to another.

I must say this drives my husband crazy. But, I feel if you view CNN, and Fox News, you might get some middle ground to work with.

I started thinking "where does all the money come from for President Obama"?

I have four daughters who went to College, and we were middle class, and money was tight. We (including my girls) worked hard and there were lots of student loans. I started looking into Obama's history for my own peace of mind.

Around 1979 Obama started college at Occidental in California .

He is very open about his two years at Occidental, he tried all kinds of drugs and was wasting his time but, even though he had a brilliant mind, did not apply himself to his studies.

"Barry" (that was the name he used all his life) during this time had two roommates, Muhammad Hasan Chandoo and Wahid Hamid, both from Pakistan .. During the summer of 1981, after his second year in college, he made a "round the world" trip.

Stopping to see his mother in Indonesia , next Hyderabad in India , three weeks in Karachi , Pakistan where he stayed with his roommate's family, then off to Africa to visit his father's family.

My question - Where did he get the money for this trip?

Nether I, nor any one of my children would have had money for a trip like this when they were in college. When he came back he started school at Columbia University in New York . It is at this time he wants everyone to call him Barack - not Barry.

Do you know what the tuition is at Columbia ? It's not cheap! to say the least. My girls asked me; where did he get money for tuition? Student Loans? Maybe its none of my business?

After Columbia , he went to Chicago to work as a Community Organizer for $12,000. a year. Why Chicago ?

Why not New York ? He was already living in New York ..

By "chance" he met Antoin "Tony" Rezko, born in Aleppo, Syria , and a real estate developer in Chicago . Rezko has been convicted of fraud and bribery several times in the past and in 2011. Rezko, was named "Entrepreneur of the Decade" by the Arab-American Business and Professional Association".

About two years later, Obama entered Harvard Law School ..

Do you have any idea what tuition is for Harvard Law School ?

Where did he get the money for Law School ?

More student loans? His family had no money thats for sure.

After Law school, he went back to Chicago .

Rezko offered him a job, which he turned down.

But, he did take a job with Davis, Miner, Barnhill & Galland.

Guess what I discovered?

They represented "Rezar" which is Rezko's firm. Rezko was one of Obama's first major financial contributors when he ran for office in Chicago .

In 2003, Rezko threw an early fundraiser for Obama which Chicago Tribune reporter David Mendelland claims was instrumental in providing Obama with "seed money" for his U.S. Senate race.

In 2005, Obama purchased a new home in Kenwoood District of Chicago for $1.65 million (less than asking price). With ALL those Student Loans - Where did he get the money for this property? On the same day Rezko's wife, Rita, purchased the adjoining empty lot for full price. The London Times reported that Nadhmi Auchi, an Iraqi-born Billionaire loaned Rezko $3.5 million three weeks before Obama's new home was purchased. Obama met Nadhmi Auchi many times with Rezko.

Now, we have Obama running for President. Valerie Jarrett, was Michele Obama's boss. She is now Obama's chief advisor and he does not make any major decisions without talking to her first.

Where was Jarrett born? Ready for this?

Shiraz , Iran ! Am I going nuts or is there a pattern here?

On May 10, 2008 The Times reported, Robert Malley advisor to Obama was "sacked" after the press found out he was having regular contacts with "Hamas", which controls Gaza and is connected with Iran .

This past week, buried in the back part of the papers, Iraqi newspapers reported that during Obama's visit to Iraq , he asked their leaders to do nothing about the war until after he is elected, and he will "Take care of things". What the heck does that mean?

Oh, and by the way, remember the college roommates that were born in Pakistan ? They are in charge of all those "small" Internet campaign contribution for Obama. Where is that money coming from?

The poor and middle class in this country?

Or could it be from the Middle East ?

And the final bit of news. On September 7, 2009, The Washington Times posted a verbal slip that was made on "This Week" with George Stephanopoulos. Obama on talking about his religion said, "My Muslim faith". When questioned, "he make a mistake". Some mistake huh?

All of the above information I got on line. If you would like to check it -

Wikipedia, encyclopedia,

Barack Obama; Tony Rezko; Valerie Jarrett: Daily Times - Obama visited Pakistan in 1981; The Washington Times - September 7, 2008; The Times May 10, 2008.

Now the BIG question - If I found out all this information on my own.

Why haven't all of our "intelligent" members of the press been reporting this?

Is this a Kettle of smelly imported Fish??

As Arseno Hall would say.----HUMMMMMMM!

Does something stink or is it my imagination?

These are legitimate questions for the president and all Americans.

Will History report our President was bought and paid for?

There is a lot of truth here. Think about it.

While suturing a cut on the hand of a 75 year old rancher, whose hand was caught in the squeeze gate while working cattle, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man.

Eventually the topic got around to Obama and his role as our president.

The old rancher said, 'Well, ya know, Obama is a 'Post Turtle''.

... Not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked him, what a 'post turtle' was.

The old rancher said, 'When you're driving down a country road and you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that's a 'post turtle'.

The old rancher saw the puzzled look on the doctor's face so he continued to explain. "You know he didn't get up there by himself, he doesn't belong up there, he doesn't know what to do while he's up there, he's elevated beyond his ability to function, and you just Wonder what kind of dumb person put him up there to begin with."

Best explanation I've heard yet.

Only in America could the rich people who pay 86% of all income taxes be accused of not paying their "fair share" by people who don't pay any income taxes at all.

[Jmasters]

Where to begin on Obama , just wow.. Let's start with the fact that he still has not PROVEN he is a NATURALIZED citizen of the U.S.A. For one.Somewhere he has lied -look into Barry Soetoro his college years, which beckons the question, who is he really? Sheriff Arpaio is running an active investigation because all the other tools are to scared to even look into the matter.He has outspent EVERY President from Washington to Reagan and counting.. created maybe half the amount of jobs he has actually put figures out-this was even mentioned by Bill Clinton recently that he has NO idea on how to run a country.Then put aside all these conspiracy reasons as the left wants to label them and just discuss the things he is doing to subjugate the CONSTITUTION and that reason alone is enough to say bye bye come November.Richard Nixon pulled some of the same crap and he went bye bye as well and its a very surreal possibility that when all is said and done Obama just might meet the same fate if not worse.My vote will be for Mickey Mouse because the one week Washington shut down I believe was our best week ever since he was elected.A fairy tale IMO could not be any worse at doing nothing than Obama has done at screwing this nation up.Just my Come November third I believe we will see Obama

Very Sad, people do keep making the same mistakes over and over

Does the saying "you can't fix stupid" come to mind here?

Ineptocracy (in-ep-toc'-ra-cy) - a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.

[parmenio]

Obama is an amateur and a fool. He should be voted out and relegated to the ash heap of history.

You're very kind..., I would have used 'dung heap'

[Shabibilicious]

I, for one, am enjoying the feeding frenzy..........thanks for providing the chum, Detroit.

GO RV, then BV

[DiveDeepSix]

:lol: Seriously? I can't believe anyone would even post that! :lol: We could list every single failure by our current POTUS but it would take pages and pages, he is by far the most anti-American and anti-religious president this country has ever seen. The best thing he could do for this country is resign. NOBAMA 2012

[Lutie]

Hahahaha you gotta love these libs they live in their own little world!! I don't think any of them are really that dumb to not see what Obama is all about so I just have to assume they are looking for attention.

Almost like the 'Peter Principle' and the folks that voted him in are either ignorant, on welfare or outright marxists!

[sxsess]

Dont listen to liberals everyone. They live in a world of lies and deceit. Obama will be landslid come November. Socialism was attempted back in the 70's with Jimmy Carter. Everyone here that remembers those days knows what a failure that was; Coward leadership, 18+ % interest rates, high unemployment, and total despair. Now here we are 30 years later and we try this liberal crap again. Hopefully for our sake as a nation this will be the last time! I cant wait to see the crybaby cowards reaction to obama going down in flames.

[Redwizard]

Well I am helping in the voting. I have told all my employees that if Obama wins I am shutting down the company, I hope I didnt make them change there minds

I was thinking of Carter ala 1980 as I was reading thru the posts.

That election, all 3 news agencies were touting that he would clearly

get elected again......we're in worse shape now IMO.....and I agree,

a landslide election for 2012 is in the works.....see ya O'blah

With you on that, Red!

[Redwizard]

Good job!

Thank you!

With you on that, Red!

I think many companies will close down if he wins another 4 years, how much money can a company afford to loose? It will be cheaper to shut down and try to save whatever money they have left.

By Brian Carter

Mr. President,

I voted for you in 2008 and you have my support for a 2nd term as President. While I was initially hesitant during the primaries, I warmed to your ideas and inspiring message of change in Washington. Many of us had high hopes for a more effective government, one able to work toward the progressive change we desperately needed. Alas, the political realities burst that bubble all too quickly due in large part to a minority Republican Party determined to place its own designs on power above the needs of a struggling country. But many also found they could not reconcile the icon created in voters' minds throughout the campaign with the man who entered the White House after the election. While each of us harbor disappointments over what did not come to pass, there are many who appreciate and are capable of recognizing the accomplishments you have made despite overwhelming opposition.

As I considered all that has transpired over the past 3 ½ years I found a number of reasons to vote for you once again. Here is a list of the prominent ones;

1.

Your administration, in conjunction with the Democrat-led Congress and the Federal Reserve, acted quickly to shore up a financial system and job market in free fall, held us back from a entering a depression and, as the CBO director put it in congressional testimony back in 2010, the “...aggressive action by the Federal Reserve and the fiscal stimulus package helped moderate the severity of the recession and shorten its duration.”

2.

You and congressional Democrats put your own political careers at risk to produce the most meaningful health care reform this country has seen in 45 years in an effort to expand access to care for nearly 30 million uninsured Americans. While some may criticize you for abandoning the public option, these individuals forget the ardent opposition and misinformation campaign waged against it, culminating in Senator Joe Lieberman's last minute reversal, deciding to vote against any reform with such a measure. This, as you know, is what effectively struck the the final nail in the coffin of the Public Option.

3.

Against significant opposition you decided to bailout the American auto industry which resulted in an undeniable success, so much so that your presidential challenger is now attempting to credit himself with the idea. But many, even some fellow liberals, claim you chose big business over struggling Americans. These views fail to take in the bigger picture. Your critics do not consider the average Americans employed by the industry itself, the parts manufacturers, the shippers who transport those parts, the auto dealerships or the communities where those very workers and businesses reside. It would appear these bailouts did more for the average American than your critics care to admit.

4.

You and the Democratic-led Congress reinstated many of the very regulations whose repeal led to the Great Recession. These new regulations include provisions for a controlled "winding down" of failing financial institutions eliminating the need for taxpayer bailouts in the future, something your Republican counterparts have tried to reverse.

5.

You and congressional Democrats created the Consumer Financial and Protection Bureau (CFPB) which, as you know, is tasked with ensuring contractual language and documents from banks, credit card companies, mortgage brokers, payday lenders, student loan providers and other financial institutions are understandable to average consumers. It seeks to educate consumers so people can make financial decisions based on sound comparison and assessment of all available information.

6.

You lobbied for New Deal style work projects in an effort to return Americans' to work. You pushed for infrastructure investment and maintenance, you pressed Congress for national passenger railway funding which many GOP-led states refused to take. You pushed for broadband internet expansion into rural areas and continued to advance your transportation legislation through Congress. Yet at every turn these efforts were hampered by a GOP intent on holding firm to an agenda of austerity.

7.

Your first act as President was to sign the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, a bill designed to break down wage discrimination barriers for women. Since then you have made it a point to eliminate inequality at numerous levels.

8.

You made reinvestments in education and career transition training, advanced policy to make college more affordable and to assist students with student loans.

9.

You eliminated Don't Ask, Don't Tell and have stood up for LGTB rights and just yesterday officially backed the rights of same-sex couples to marry.

10.

Under your leadership we have seen a marked improvement in the economy. Of the 8.7 million jobs lost since September 2008 including the 4.3 million lost under your administration virtually all those lost since your time in office have been regained. We've seen GDP go from 0.4% in March 2011 to 3.0% in the 4th quarter of that year. It has dropped to 2.2% in the first quarter of 2012 but with a historical average of 3.8% and the fact that we're in a recovery, there isn't much room for criticism.

Despite all these accomplishments, Mr. President you still have your detractors many of whom are from your own party. They seek to punish you for not implementing all of your campaign promises or for pursuing all of their agenda items.

You were criticized for extending the Bush Tax cuts. While this was against a campaign promise, your critics forget you agreed to their continuance only to ensure benefits for unemployed Americans were extended through the 2011 holiday season.

Another criticism which I'm sure is ever-present on your mind is the broken promise to close the Guantanamo Bay detention facilities. But your many critics apparently disregard your continued efforts to do just that amidst a coordinated opposition and fear-mongering strategy against such attempts and an unwilling Congress.

From the onset your decision not to pursue war crime prosecutions against George Bush and **** Cheney has been met with harsh criticisms from left-wing members of your base. While satisfying to witness the net benefits to the nation of such an event would have been negligible. In the midst of a massive economic crisis as the one we were facing such a diversion would have only wasted time and resources much better allocated to slowing our descent into a possible depression. Instead you took a page from President Ford when he decided to pardon Richard Nixon, recognizing it is the President's “duty, not merely to proclaim domestic tranquility but to use every means that I have to insure it.” You realized, as did he, it was simply time to move on and hope this gesture would foster a cooperative climate in Washington after many contentious years. Unfortunately, this did not come to pass and you were fought every step of the way by a unified opposition forged on the very night of your inauguration.

As you enter this new election cycle and hear the constant drumbeat of criticism in your ear, remember one thing... it is always easier to criticize those who govern than to govern yourself. It takes character to forge ahead with what is best for the country as a whole rather than bending to the demands of a few.

Best of luck to you Mr. President, with hopes for another 4 years.

REAL TALK

Go Detroit!!!!!!!!!!!!! Pride of the American worker, jobs saved.
