How we vote says a lot, but so does our outlook on America. If you believe that America commits and has committed terrible crimes, was and is racist, was and is greed-centered where we focus on accumulation of wealth at the expense of the poor, if you believe that we have had all we have dumped on us by virtue of luck, if you believe our leaders are intrinsically bad and malicious, always attempting to subvert the rule of law for their benefit, if you think this, then your vote will be for Obama. It also says how misguided and misinformed, poorly educated, and ignorant you are of the country that has given you everything and received only the whines of children who want more, not because they do not have, but because they do have, and expect more.
Senator, you have played up every negative aspect in our history, from race to greed to wealth - you have sown the division and played the most divisive campaign since Clinton and Bush. It may help you get votes, but it hurts America Senator, and you do not understand that for all your want in winning the election. You have been blinded Senator, by ambition.
If you believe that America has all we have because of luck, sheer fortune of where we landed - you will vote for Obama, and you are wrong. If you believe that the United States is deeply racist and has been - you will vote for Obama, and you would be wrong. If you believe that there is no difference between 'us' and 'them' whoever them might be - you will vote for Obama, and you would be wrong. If you believe that pursuing wealth, going to medical or law school and succeeding, starting businesses and making money - if you believe that is wrong - you will vote for Obama, and you would be wrong. If you feel the US has insulted the world and alienated friends - you will vote for Obama and you would be wrong. If you feel there is no difference between Guantanamo and prison camps in Germany, you will vote for Obama - and you would be wrong. If you believe the United States does not do enough to help other countries and the poor around the world - you will vote for Obama, and you would be wrong. If you do not feel we are doing enough at home to educate children, feed the poor, and help the underprivileged - you will vote for Obama, and you would be wrong. If you believe the idea of change is more important than substantive discussion on proposed policies, you will vote for Obama, and you would be very foolish. If you believe the answer to our economic woes is to cut the military and put more money in to education, you will vote for Obama, and you would be wrong. If you do not believe the top 12% of income earners pay enough taxes, you will vote for Obama, and you would be wrong. If you believe we should tax the rich more, you will vote for Obama and you would be deficient in economics, and very wrong. If you believe we should negotiate with Iran and North Korea without any conditions - you will vote for Obama, and you would be dead wrong. If you think we can negotiate with our enemies and suddenly they will see the error of their ways, or we can just stop doing something and the enemy will go away and leave us alone - you will vote for Obama and you would be dead wrong. If you believe that all troops should be taken out of Iraq, you will of course vote for Obama, and you would, again, be dead wrong. If you believe troops should be taken out of Afghanistan, you will vote for Obama, and even he doesn't say that, but you would be dead wrong, again. If you believe Bush LIED about Iraq, you will vote for Obama, and you would, foolishly, be wrong again. If you believe we must cooperate more with the UN and international bodies - you will vote for Obama, and you would be wrong yet again for the hundredth time.
All of the above are views held by Obama and or by some or most of his supporters. With the exception of withdrawing troops from Afghanistan, Obama's position has been laid out reasonably clear above. It is a choice in November - to believe America is spoiled and selfish, that its leaders are corrupted, and we are no better morally or ethically than the rest of the world - you must vote for Obama.
Yet in voting for him, you would demonstrate a failure in knowledge of American history, our system. You would demonstrate that you have failed to understand the difference between good and evil unless it happens to be Bush and then you clearly understand evil. You would demonstrate a failure to appreciate American history and for that matter, world history in the foolish positions concerning the world and the US. You believe that but for luck, any nation situated on our soil would do as well, that there is nothing peculiar or unique about the people who have resided on our soil for the last two hundred years, other than that they are all killers or thieves, who stole the land and enslaved people to grow their wealth.
You have a distorted perception of reality and what is most unfortunate is you would destroy the greatest quality of America in your wistful march down emotional lane. Review all the statements above concerning Obama's position - they all involve emotion and feeling - not logic or reason.
There are people who would say America is greater than the whole of one incompetent man - but not when this incompetent man wants to sell the US to the UN, tax the GDP, impose a multi-trillion dollar health plan on us that cannot and would not work, yet once embarked upon, we could not simply throw it away after spending $7 trillion to get it. We would be stuck with a failed medical system before it was implemented and we would all suffer. Don't expect those of us who recognize this disaster to smile and forgive you for being so stupid and naive. Too much is at risk. You bankrupt the country and institute a failed medical system that lowers our standard of living and places us on par with Great Britain. Unable to maintain our military strength, the enemies of freedom that you do not believe exist, will encroach on the US and its allies and we will not be able to stop them because you would have eliminated much of the military budget for the health system.
But no, you would argue we will simply negotiate and that will spare us trillions in military expenditures, to prop up a failed tiered medical system. Yes, and when the enemy does not wish to negotiate unless it is our surrender - what then oh foolish one. Well, I suppose you would suggest we turn to the UN, that body that Obama would reinvigorate. Surely he would, with a huge hundred billion dollar revenue spree courtesy of the US taxpayers with a tax on our GDP. Except NEVER in the history of the UN has it ever saved anyone from anything or anyone. Never, not once. Never. So relying upon the new found friends at the UN, would result in their suggesting we accept the conditions of surrender, although they won't call them surrender - they will use a much more diplomatic term - Conditions of Understanding. Yes, a nice euphemism for surrender, but you won't care, because in your heart you hate America in its present form anyway. It's evil ... oops, there is that word you don't like unless it describes Bush, so we'll change it to - unworthy, bad, wrong, unethical.
Under Obama the US would have surrendered small bits of our sovereignty, dismantled our military, slashed the military budget, and embraced a boondoggle of a medical system, and a hundreds of billions of dollars tax on the American people to provide funding to the UN, to improve and reinvigorate the UN.
We would lose absolute control over our economy and political system, stuck with a failed medical system that zaps trillions each year, forced to accept and pay a .7% tax on our GDP to save the world, and no one would be able to help us when the enemy stands at our door waving a few nukes at us, especially after Obama eliminates all US nuclear weapons to make the world safer, we would be faced with nuclear oblivion, or rather, millions of Americans would face it, probably not you because you would be too busy trying to surrender.
Realizing at that time what many of us realize now, and apologizing, will not save us, nor will the apology be accepted. The country is of greater importance than whether or not 1% or 10% feel better about themselves. History and hundreds of millions of Americans today, and in the decades that follow are more important than what we want on this day.
Of course much of this is premised on the fact we have an unrelenting enemy who does not believe in negotiation or surrender. That is where we are at odds - if you believe in the delusional ravings of Obama; you do not accept that anyone on planet earth is an unrelenting enemy that cannot be pacified by giving up Israel or abandoning our principles.
It shows a shortsighted view of history, a failure to understand Islam, and a generally naive view of the world, but what else can you expect from people who are animated by emotion and feelings.
Mr. Obama, you have been found lacking in the character necessary to be President of the United States. Please understand the reason why at least 50% of the American people will not and can not vote for you.
