Strange Election Year so Far!


Willard Mitt Romney has the votes and is the nominee of the Republican Party, President Barrack H. Obama is the incumbant so why hasn’t the race really begun as of yet?

         They throw punches from afar like shadow boxers in a darkened room or area at one another, but neither has come up with any concrete plans to solve America’s problems. Why is that and why the jockeying for position and playing around? Kinda funny isn’t it, since, in past elections, all the way back to JFK vs Nixon the war was on hot and heavy with many debates by now, so whats happening here?

         I think politicians are now starting to get a message from some of the american public, they need to get off their asses and get something going and working or get the hell out of office! We the American People need to convey that message these days to them and put them out of work, for not doing the job they were sent to do, by us!

         Sadly, as job numbers change and start to rise again and people’s unemployment benefits run out, no one has the sense to take action and do a damn thing. Sad isn’t it? Jobs are not coming back fast enough, manufacturing is being built once more, but again not fast enough. Our place in the world market is weak now-a-days, as well as in the trade markets, thanks to trade agreements that made our imports out weigh our exports by far. Time to change that is here now!

          The Postal Service is going out of business and cutting jobs for what, because out government borrows from their budget  for other items! Bullshit put the money back, and save the Postal Service, we need it!

            Save Social Security too, stop borrowing from it, too many are on it because of age, disability and more and  we need that money to live. Wake up stop borrowing from it and leave more in there to keep it going, repay what you borrowed now!

        I don’t want to hear how you want to revoke Obama Care, unless you have a full and ready replacement for it. Too many Americans don’t have insurance and we need it damn it. Wake up! Medicare and Medicaid only pays so much, and they don’t cover enough, private insurance costs an arm and a leg. Keep Obama Care, unless you have a concrete plan to replace it period!

        Now I am asking both candidates, Romney the Republican, Obama the incumbant and Democrat, give us concrete solutions to creating jobs, to expanding business and opportunities, and saving the Postal Service, Obama Care. Medicaid and Medicare, correcting the Trade Agreements and moving America forward. If not than you don’t deserve the White House or Congress or the Senate for a job in my mind. It is time for a New Deal like Roosevelt gave us, or something close to it. wake up!

        I have lived now 56 years and seen many Presidents come and go in my life, isn’t it time someone with some guts,testestorone and brains stands up and fixes things? What kind of patty cake playing are you politicians doing at the cost of the American People? Get us out of the wars, bring the troops all home, stop policing other countries and fighting their wars. Use those funds in the billions on improving America’s economy, job markets, trade agreement, medical coverages and save the Postal Service and create jobs. Lets go damn it!

        I have seen Election Years come and go, and seen Presidents come and go, but damn why is this year so strange for an election year? It’s simple , the candidates want to hedge their bets, don’t let them and lets get this strange Election going in the right direction, hold them to their words.

        

2012 Election, Facts,/Needs/Ideas


     In what I have called the most boring Election so far, 2012’s is not moving any faster and neither candidate is really making headway against the other. If this keeps up, we may just choose a President and be done with it all in quiet fashion.

       You can run around pointing fingers at one another as these two men do, and telling tales about each other or you can begin to talk about the real issues Americans face! Let’s Get it on is what I say, lets see who has the solutions and ideas to move the country forward.

       I want to hear both candidates, incumbant and challenger, talk about 1) The Economy, 2) Creating Jobs,3) How to save Social Security, Medicaid, and Medicare 4) Evening the trade agreements and making America have more exports than imports. 5) How to get us out of wars and keep us out period, we are not the world’s police force.6) Getting our money back from the companies and banks we bailed out. 7) Repairing the Blue Collar Job Market is key and vital to America’s economy, we need to get more factories going again.

          These are key issues that need discussed, extend unemployment benefits, save the Postal Service, keep it alive, while your at it too. Make a decision not to get involved in anyone elses wars anymore. We can’t fix Afghanistan, but we do kill off our service members trying don’t we, stop it now, pull the hell out. We had no business in Iraq, Iran is bullshiting us and we fall for it and get upset, isolate them and let them beg for mercy in the end, and their threat will go poof.  Homeland Protection is vital also, we all agree, we must keep America safe to stay free. Lets do it and do it right is all.

       In the end the 2012 Election this November, will determine 1) Who shall lead America away from these bad items and towards the good. 2) Who shall stop our decline in the world economy and put measures in place to prevent us from being dragged down too. 3) Who can straighten out and renegotiate all the trade agreements that are affects our imports being greater than our exports and turn it around. 4) Jobs are critical as is manufacturing, lets give them tax breaks and help to get going again in America and build more. 

       In the end the man who can solve all the above problems with ideas that work will win the election. I want both candidates to discuss these issues not who’s dog is on the roof of a car, or what they did in High School. Create jobs, help the manufacturing market grow, encourage, encourage this period. Save the Postal Service, leave the Veterans benefits alone, leave Social Security alone and find a way to continue to fund it, keep Health Care Reform and correct it, not destroy it.. Don’t take benefits from the elderly and poor to pay the rich, keep the programs in place damn it. 

      So many things a President can do  and be doing to improve the country has stopped being done, because the American people made a mistake in 2008. We picked the right President, but gave congress to his opposition, causing the log jams we now have in Washington. Sadly we American citizens are just as responsible for this mess as the politicians. If we want it cleaned up and the country moving forward and improving we need to stop the log jam and elect a President and Congress of one party and make them work to save all needing saving or fire them and get new ones. My opinion is now said and written I hope others agree!

 

America’s Needs and Choices 11/2012


      Across America the race is on for the White House in November of 2012. The Incumbant President Barrack Obama should be and is favored to beat his challenger Williard Mitt Romney the Republican. Hopefully if America has any common sense and intelligence left, they will choose the best of the two and while they are at it, back it with a Senate and house full of people in the same party. This stalemate and log-jam in Washington is killing any hope of bettering the economy and the United States.

      Personally speaking I will back whatever candidate can put a stop to borrowing from Social Security, Medicaid and Medicare and save these benefitial programs for the people in the future. The one that can find a way to reinstill funds and make these programs last will be the President in Hanuary 2013, of this I have no doubt.

       The candidate who can come out with a way to give tax breaks to manufacturers and companys that produce jobs and help raise our exports over, imports will win too.  Jobs and the Economy stupids you get it yet, like Bill Clinton was told it’s the economy.

          No more wars, no more fighting middle east battles or battles across the globe we can’t win, or can turn into morasses that weigh us downa nd eat up money and weapons and military personell, please. We don’t belong in Iraq, Afganistan, or any Middle East country fighting wars, or policing Nations that care not about us and will stab us in the back as soon as they can. Wake up in Washington, the bell shall toll for thos epoliticians who voted for wars, who voted for American involvements without help or for policing actions. Americans are tired and that includes the American Military too. They will go where the President says of course for he is their Commander in Chief, but stop please, these people men and women are human and can only take so much, the time to rest the troops and stop their battles is now. Too many suicides, too many PTSD cases, too many injuried or dead military personell who gave their health and lives for what, to police other nations to take down dictators in countries that will only regrow a new one. We need to stop now and save all the time, effort and money for inproving America’s Economy, America’s job market, housing market and our status in the world. Wake up Washington Please!

      The battle that is needed to be won, is hear at home now, not overseas in a war or policing zone in the middle east. We always support our Allies, but, in the end many of them turn on us and we end up with the short end of the stick for our efforts. The time now is to, stop overstretching our borders and flexing our muscles and to realize it is hurting us as a country to do so.

        Come November on Election Day, American’s need to find which man and his partner, will be able to find the ways to keep us out of wars, save those funds at home, increase jobs, improve the economy, educate our children and in the end, increase exports over imports once more and change the current Trade Agreement so they help America not the World anymore. We need a President who can stand up and say no more will America, send help easily, no more will America be babysitting and policing the world. We need an American President who can stand up and say, Yes I will save Social Security and Medicad and Medicare. Yes, we need a real Leader who can lead and isn’t afraid of stepping on toes to make America strong again and resilent. So Americans make a choice, whether Obama or Romney and which one you believe can solve America’s biggest problems without, letting the world kill us more.

 

On to The General Election Please!


Sometimes, life takes strange twists and turns in ones race to get to the end, and other times it is destiny that leads one to the end result. It matters not what others think, it does matter what the end result will be, no matter what. The math of The Republican Primary this year, delegate count is the ultimate number all must watch as it gets nearer to Mitt Romney winning it. The numbers do not lie, is all I can say to Mr. Rick Santorum and the world, spending more money in other states isn’t going to win it for you Santorum you said that yourself, so why continue?

        The time to end this debacle of a Republican Primary is now, Newt Gingrich‘s campaign is over his funds are gone and dried up, Ron Paul hangs on, but no one will tak ethe elderly one serious and his views are more liberal than conservative anyway.  The end is here Mr. Santorum let Romney now fight his race against President Obama and lets really see if he can beat him or not. I warn all though, President Obama is loaded for bear and ready for anything anyone will throw at him and as I see it now no matter the Republican Nominee, you still have to beat the Incumbant who is beginning to turn things around, look at the numbers.

        I have never been a soothsayer nor a fortune-teller, or one who claims to see the future and know what is coming next, but it sure looks like this race to the Presidency is one between Romney and Obama to me. Who wins or who loses will depend on perceptions of these men in the American Public and at this time I can tell you two areas that will decide this as far as population goes. It won’t  be die- hards of either party, it will be independents like myself and in the end the female gender, women carry power in elections, and if you mess with female issues you deserve what you get from them. 

        Decades ago, Roe vs Wade and the courts solved women’s issues big time with the decision won by women. Do not tell a woman what to do with her body, that is  their own personal place to go, Do not tell them whether they can or can not have a child for religious reasons or any other, they know what they want and can make up their own minds. As to contraceptives of different sorts, men and women use them to prevent unwanted children it’s a fact of the world and to stop supplying them would be wrong too. After Rape drugs are needed for I agree with women, if raped why would they want to keep a rapists child?

          I tire of politicians who tell us what to do with our lives, but I also tire of the ones who don’t get the ideas and thoughts the American people really need help with too.  Stay away from Medicare, Stay away from Medicaid, stay away from Social Security and stay away from Veteran’s Benefits, the people on these items need them each and every freaking penny they get. They are not the rich ones who live high on the hog, they are the ones who have to budget each day and week to survive and take hours in a store to figure how they can eat because of money limits. Wake the hell up politicians!. The saddest thing about the election year cycle and the way the election is going is too many damn Republicans want to take from the poor give to the rich and raise the income of the rich by cutting their taxes. How about we do what Mr. Buffett said, make the rich pay more which is their fair share for a change!.

         Anyway I am reaching a little far now off my original subject of the Republican Primary Race and the meaning of Romney’s wins last night. In the end though isn’t it time we all get a view of what the fall election will be and end this republican debacle now? Lets get to fixing the economy, trade agreements, jobs, and trimming budgets and making Health Care Work!
