Personally.... (The Election)
Sure. Bush didn't do great either. Neither did Clinton. Neither did Bush Senior. In fact, the last decent president was Reagan. For christs sake, everyone after Reagan did a better job than these four! Which is why I personally call Obama, Bush, Clinton, and Bush Senior the "Fantastic Four". (Ha. Ha.)
So as great as Obama did for things concerning the public needs of America, he didn't do much to help the economy. So maybe it would have been nice to have Romney come in and kinda kick start some revenue, even IF that means we have to deal with him not doing the non-essentials.
Cause guys, look. China is going to buy America out. It is inevitable. We are in trillions of dollars in debt, and China has wanted America to fall since Communism took over. So, we need to start focusing more efforts on job creation, stopping imports, outsourcing, and increase exports or else we are going to be in a world of hurt.
Sure, I think that Obama could do a great job with it! Romney's platform was job creation and industrial growth, so I preferred him (I didn't like any of the canadites by the way..... Romney was sort of an idiot and Obama hasn't done anything to fix the economy, so I didn't like either.), but I think Obama could do a great job if he made some improvements to the current Welfare system, lowered taxes a tad bit (not a lot, just enough so that the government got what they needed, but gave the people what they do.), drilled in places like Alaska,-
[before any ignoramus steps forth saying they shouldn't drill for oil there, I lived in Alaska. Alaska is overflowing with the black shit. And there is NOTHING THERE. Alaska is half the size of the U.S alone, I don't think a few drill sites or mines is going to do ANYTHING to the natural landscape or ecology....At all. Seriously, I have had people say drilling for oil will effect the salmon. The salmon? Really? That's your argument? Salmon don't fucking go to Northern Alaska you pompous self-righteous eco-assholes!
Also, the state is dying. They have no money because of this very reason. And it's a huge problem up there. There is no problem with drilling, it's just that extremists don't want to drill there because it will kill seals and polar bears {yeah, seriously, I have read articles about it.}. Do you know what's IN Alaska past the Denali range? Tundra. What's in the Tundra? Nothing. Maybe some permafrost and shrubs. I lived there all my life, so before someone who hasn't been there decides me to correct me on it, know that.}
-and focused on US Americans security before fighting in Yemen and Egypt, we would be fine in a good 6 years. It's easy, and I hope he realizes that. Again, I don't like him as a president. I don't, but that doesn't mean I think he's a terrorist, or an extremist, or this or that. He's a good, funny guy who actually has done a considerable amount on the non-essencial aspects of America, which are just as good as everything else, but I pray he focuses more on dealings with China and the continued growth in mining, oil drilling, and overall exports or imports this term.
And that is coming from a Republican.
Listen to me other Republicans. It won't be all that bad if we just intelligently voice our opinions. They aren't all cruel, and I can tell that Obama isn't, we just need to stop being so self possessed and maybe understand the fact that he is just doing what he thinks is best, and that we can always just talk about it. Not fight.
And you Democrats. Okay. I got it. He won. Congrats, want a cookie? I know a lot of Democrats, and your party has the same problem as the Republicans. Honestly, you guys are super self possessed about yourselves. Yes, I know that you guys want to help the sexually oppressed, and yes, I understand that you are very intelligent about ideas and politics, and yes, you have a LOT of opinions.....But stop shoving it down my throat, please.
I'm glad you guys (finally) stopped bashing religion though, that was a huge step for you. I mean, for people promoting tolerance, you guys have done a shitty job at appealing to religion. Just saying, but you are getting better. Also, to Democrats in some form of political power, if you read this, you won't, but if you do, just understand that when a Republican tries to come to a sensible agreement on policies, don't undermine him or insult him or blow him off, because at least he is making the effort. Same goes for Republicans.
That's my opinion. I know that no one will read this, and my voice will go unheard. But my parents and my friends and my RP partners need to be educated. Republicans and Democrats are a circle. You can't take one away from the other, and yet for 20 years we have been trying to. That is stupid. Whoever thought that was a good idea was stupid.
This is my opinion, and that's why I haven't left the country.
