You missed one, i.e...............

Do you wish there was someone REALLY worth voting for.

 
Most of the folks I know seem to vote based on "the lesser of the evils" rather than anyone they think is really worth voting for.

A lot of people feel this way.

I would not change my vote either. The last eight years have been really tough for me. Projects have been cancelled because of policys of the past government. Things went bad eight years ago as soon as old Pres. Bush got in everything went down hill. It is a big money and greed thing and everyone eyes were closed to it. Things were going bad so why in the past eight years was anything done about it the republicans had majority rule and things went bad. Know the current Pres. is accually trying to do  things to make this country strong again.

 :iagree:

I`m still hoping his policies will work so ask me again in a couple years.

I hope you're right, but Rham Emanual's words keep ringing in my ears. Maybe I misinterpret what he says for something other than using a financial crisis as an opportunity to ram your entire unpopular agenda down everyones throats while they are distracted by other things.  :clueless:

As I shared last November following the election, that was the very first time that I did not cast a presidential vote. Not because they were equal except in their personal ability to serve as president. However now that we actually counted all the votes in our great land of freedom, I will as always support our president. I may not like his direction or decisions but I accept whom the Americian people have elected.

On another note, and I will give no credit to individuals, I guess it just worked out that way, those previous 8 years had been the most financially successful years I have personally experienced. But what happened to the Americian economy happened pretty much world wide also, and  so I don't beleieve it was totally an Americian created financial demise.  But the last half of 2008 we lost a bundle, we have actually recouped a little of that loss and now can only hope for slow gradual overall economic growth in our country.

And to answer the question, as of now I'd again do what I did last November. Sad isn't it ? !
