I am a strong supporter of President Barack Obama. I cannot believe there are folks who still blame him for our country's problems. Didn't we all contribute to overspending? Didn't we all contribute to buy now and pay later? Isn't that what happened for eight years prior to Obama taking office? Do you forget about the millions of jobs lost to outsourcing? That all started in 2000.
Let's support Obama's realistic approach to getting America on a steady healthy financial recovery by buying products produced and built in the USA - buy from local farmers, hire local union personnel for new construction and repairs, hire certified electricians to install solar and photovoltaic panels.
Be appreciative for credit card reform, the Lilly Ledbetter act, tuition reform helping students stay in college and health care reform allowing millions of children up to age 26 to stay on their parents' health insurance.
Make America strong by giving all children a safe home and the courage to be themselves. Help them with their homework and let them dream.
Let's stop blaming Obama, he did not get us into two wars, create tax loopholes and give away billions of taxpayer money to financial institutions, and he did not neglect the middle class. Support the president and get the facts. Visit www.barackobama.com, you will be glad you did.
