Front page of the WSJ. Housing prices tumble another 3 %. We got 4 gas, higher insurance bills, higher food bills, and a very dim outlook. We have a president who has no clue as to what he is doing. Both by rumor and his very own actions, he would rather be watching ESPN or out on the golf corse.
Please, can someone tell me why you would even vote for Obama a second time? Is this the change you were expecting? Oops, I should say hoping for?

I've yet to understand why anyone voted for him the first time. It sure wasn't based on his "credentials". Best I can figure, it was because he wasn't George Bush, and because some folks wanted to be part of "history" by electing the first "black" POTUS. Now we see where racism leads....

Like it or not, he's the President. I vote for who I think is the best candidate. After the election, I support whoever won because I believe in the democratic process. You can use your free speech to complain, but in the end you should support democracy because there isn't a better form of government.

What you're supporting with your statement is actually a Republic, not a Democracy. A Democracy is more akin to Socialism.

So, by your account, because Obama won, we should all support him? Lets just throw a fly in that ointment. What if he does not subscribe to the same principals I do? What you elude to is blind following. He has the job, he is pushing what he feels is right. Lot of which I can not support. There for, I will not support him and vote for someone else in the next election. In other words, I will do my duty in the democratic process to let my one vote be my voice and suffer what comes of the election. I fully support the process, but I will not blindly follow anyone. I didn't do it for Bush, Clinton, or Bush, I sure wont for Obama.
Just a fun question, would you support Hitler if he had been voted into office? By what you posted, you say we should.
Pssst, we are a Republic.

Housing prices have been tumbling for several years. Its not going to end any time soon. A contributing factor: Folks who can afford their home payments are opting out of their upside down mortgages. This puts more devalued homes on an already devalued market.
Actually democracy is more mob rule. Socialism is the government (the minority) telling everyone else what to do, how much they can have, etc.
And unless you are in a union or on welfare, I do not see how any one could vote for Obama. His presidency has been a disaster.
I stand corrected.
So socialism is akin to our current administration.
