Let’s take a stroll down memory lane. George W. Bush has been in office for nearly 8 years. The first six years, the economy was just fine. People took vacations and cruises, they bought new cars, gasoline was close to $2 per gallon, unemployment was as low as 3.8%, the stock markets reached record nominal levels (DJIA 14,000+).
Well, guess what. Stupid Americans wanted “change.” And “change” they got, but only after voting in a Democrat Controlled Congress!!! People stopped buying luxury items, they stopped buying brand new cars, gasoline reaching record levels nearly $5 per gallon in some places, unemployment increased to the highest levels of the past decade (beyond 6%), home prices plummeted, stock market and retirement funds plunged wiping away trillions of dollars of investments.
If you think it’s bad now with a Democrat controlled Congress, and a Republican White House, it will be exponentially worst with socialists like Barack Obama in all three branches of government (Congress, White House, Supreme Court). And it won’t stop there!
When you vote, you are not just voting for the President of the United States, but you are also voting for the House of Representatives and the Senate. Based on our constitution and election system, we have the opportunity to nearly start fresh every 2 years. Every 2 years the entire House of Representatives comes up for re-election, as well as a third of the Senate.
We have the opportunity to replace ALL of the House of Representatives! Now, that is CHANGE! Congress makes the laws, not the President. But with the potential of Obama as President, he certainly wouldn’t use his veto power to stop the corruption in Congress. Not only that, but appointing thousands of federal judges across the country, and possibly imposing new executive orders. We can not afford the type of change that Barack Obama would bring!
