I don't know about you, but I'm not ready to take a ten percent chance on change.” Obama is talking about how important change is to American’s and how George Bush did not accomplish that, and McCain supported Bush most of the time. He incorporates the voters by talking about how they have suffered through the last eight years and to make the next four better. If the voters want change to be apart of the fundamentals of the American nation at this point in time it will not be achieved by electing McCain. McCain really draws the voters in on this aspect of his speech. “In America, we change things that need to be changed.
One of the most influential promises President Barrack Obama made was getting the Don’t Ask Don’t Tell done away with once and for all by starting the bill of getting the policy appealed. President Obama to some has not done much to help the Unites States issues such as the number of people whom have lost their homes because of unemployment and the 3.6 billion dollar deficient that the country seems to have all the sudden fallen into. President Obama according to author Andre Michael Eggelletion of the Real deal talk website has mange to do so much for the US to name a few things he has signed an executive order on government contracting to fight waste and abuse, Signed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, restoring basic protections against pay discrimination for women and other workers, Launched a U.S. financial and banking rescue plan, Provided affordable, high-quality child care to working families, Cracked down on companies that deny sick pay, vacation and health insurance to workers by abusing the employee classification of independent contractor. Such companies also avoid paying Social Security, Medicare and unemployment insurance taxes for those workers: Designated $1.5 billion from the Troubled Asset Relief Program to fund programs at local housing finance agencies in the states hardest hit by the housing crisis: California, Florida, Nevada, Arizona and Michigan.

The majority of Americans don’t want invasive ultrasound bills, they do want the Bush era tax cuts to be eliminated, they do want affordable or even single payer healthcare. The reason that certain bills and laws are being pushed through against the will of the majority is money. Money from billionaires and corporations has more influence in this country than the voice of the people. There is supposed to be a system of checks and balances
The Tea Party Following the election of President Obama and the rapid growth of the nation's debt, a significant cross section of Americans were becoming increasingly dissatisfied with government spending. These people have formed a rather loose coalition and have taken the moniker “the Tea Party”. Increasingly frustrated with excessive spending, bail outs, and economic hardship, the tea party has accumulated significant support across the nation and has gained the support of a number of important Republican elected officials. As their influence grows, their momentum is gaining more power. The Tea Party is a group that apparently has no intentions of backing down on their goal: to reduce spending and balance the nation's budget.
One of Obama's weaknesses is that he supports tax increases. He believes this will help the economy improve. Others believe that Obama's lack of experience will be a negative. People believe that he will not have the experience to be able to handle the strains and responsibilities of being President. I support Senator John McCain.
Election raises stakes for possible Supreme Court vacancies By Bill Mears, CNN Supreme Court Producer updated 7:03 PM EDT, Mon October 1, 2012 Washington (CNN) -- Barack Obama and Mitt Romney wasted little time rushing to the cameras when the Supreme Court narrowly upheld the president's sweeping health care reform law. Their remarks after the June ruling were a contrast of competing rhetoric over a contentious piece of legislation, and a prism into how each candidate hopes to quietly change the makeup of the federal courts. "Americans are probably paying much more attention to the economy than the Supreme Court," said Thomas Goldstein, a top appellate attorney and SCOTUSblog.com publisher. "But they should be thinking about presidential court
This should not be seen as the problem of the government but the problem of the entire populace of America who are the taxpayers. As can be seen, the healthcare reform by president Obama will only cause deep problems to the people of America than the benefits it is expected to bring them. it seems the Obama administration was not committed to the people of America as they had made them belief in the run for his elections and this has only come to the fore recently and exposed his true image
Presidents always give a speech on how things will get better but in our economy I could only see it get worse. What I think gets people to vote for a president is the “myth” that comes out of their mouths which works on all people. When voting only the electoral votes are the ones that will we counted and if that president has a numerous electoral votes he will
Majority Leader Robert Dole (R, Kan.) has been one of the most vocal proponents of reducing tort settlements. Dole has claimed that legal and insurance costs stemming from malpractice litigation are not only burdensome to health care professionals, but are ultimately passed on to patients. Those costs, Dole says, raise the average American's medical expenses by about $1,200 a year. In 1995, the House passed sweeping legislation that would have limited the overall number of tort lawsuits in the U.S. and placed a $250,000 cap on punitive damages. The legislation was ultimately vetoed by Clinton, who said the law did not adequately protect consumers' rights.
It was marketed towards the citizens of the United States as a tool to “put Americans back to work” without adding “a dime to the deficit”(Epstein, 2013). This legislation is proving to be unsustainable due to it being hard to price on an annual basis (Epstein, 2013). While unemployment rates have been going down, the increase in jobs leans more towards part-time rather than full-time work (Epstein, 2013). This can also be attributed to the change in unemployment benefit laws, which restricted the length of time you can claim
