if obama had it his way we would all be burning in hell....

yup, i think you've got it right. if he keeps on doing what he's doing america won't make it another 10 years.  

[Pumona]

If Obama got done everything he wants we will be in a bad situation, but thankfully he has not acomplished most of the things he wants done.  

[Hallie Neko-chan]

8 years past 2012. Need I say more?

**edit: before people take this the wrong way and think of me being some nut that thinks the world is ending, no. I'm being sarcastic. I think Obama has already gone too far with a lot and I think as a nation we are screwed. And when does his reign end? In 2012, unless he's re-elected.  

[goodshot911SNK]

well view has changed but like obama CHANGE for the wers

I think america is way to far in debit at this point for things to just get better I think you will see more business failing and more gov trying to fill the gap with trillions of newly printed money and inflation will get to the point where the dollar fails and we fall into a deed depression just in time for my life to suck really bad I'm 17 in ten years ill be 27 probably wanting to buy a house but with the constant bad news I don't know what is in store for me  

[Servant Reborn]

It is difficult to imagine ten years from now. I hope we can continue to improve as a nation, but this world is not perfect. The system will always be corrupt as long as Man exists. It is in his nature.

Yet, I do hope for the day that we can all live in peace, as childish as that may seem. The way our country is doing, I simply do not know.  

[goodshot911SNK]

well i think that is true man is bond to corrupt things as everyone has flaws and disagrees with one another

but there is a solution to corruption that is not giving government any power to corrupt no real power should be given to the gov because they will always use it to destroy this nation  

[Servant Reborn]

But who will run the country? If not government, then what? As fallible as the government may be, I think it is best thing we have.  

[goodshot911SNK]

i don't think you got what i said what i meant was

to not let government change anything that is not broke like gun control simple cant ban them and cant put any more restrictions on them then current restrictions so that way the corrupted gov cant take are guns or lets say printing money there should be no reason or tolerance for printing any money other than for recirculating the latest and up to date bills that would stop gov from all this stimulus and inflation and really that is my point they can screw up what they cant touch

do you get it now  

[Lexille]

If this current administration keeps its crap up... WELCOME TO NEO-CHINA!  

[goodshot911SNK]

yah I'm fed up with this bull crap it is so unconstitutional  

[Lysander the silent]

There is NOTHING constitutional about this. The problem is mainly with Congress, not the President. Granted the President is a big part, mainly because he is the center of the public's focus. About the socialist policies, there were a lot of socialist policies in America during the 1920's when FDR came into power, and most of them because of him. Social Security (which most people WANT!) is a socialist policy. I think that if the President rams this s**t down our throat any more he's going to have a full-scale revolution of ideals. People vote with their pocketbooks, and if it keeps going the way its going, he'll be ousted.

The thing that worries me the most is the youth of this nation. Even if we do what we can to stop Obama's reign of terror, the government and every nut in power has control over our schools and what we teach our children. They are feeding lies to them like candy, and the children just believe it because they are told it's true. I mean, they're cutting history out of history for crap's sake! And the kids believe it, not knowing any better. In the next ten years our kids will be shoving this s**t down our throats, and there won't be much we could do about it. Unless we stop the lies and now and educate our children with the truth, I can only see Castro Obama and his communist party taking over quite easily in the next ten years.

The problem is nobody can agree on the truth in history. Frequently the truth in history is multifaceted, as humans often act on differing motivations. Sure, liberal revisionism guts a lot of history curriculum, but even if you got rid of liberal revisionism, would it simply be replaced by conservative revisionism? Maybe it's just a generational thing, but I've found neither side to be fully satisfactory. It galls me that kids these days in history don't learn much about the Revolution and the founding of the nation, but it was no better in my day when they omitted such crucial facts as that the single most decisive factor in the war was French financing. I don't ascribe to Tom Hanks' view of WWII in the Pacific that it was a racist war, but there was something critically lacking in my education that it failed to teach how crucial the Soviet role in Europe was. Sure, the kids will be indoctrinated by leftist teacher's unions, and it sucks. But objectivity and credibility will always lack in history education.

The way I see it, put everything you can into a history textbook based on historical fact. Leave the biases out of. In addition, start teaching the constitution. If they don't learn it now, they never will. I agree with Lord Bitememan that our educational system lacks objectivity and credibility because the system leaves so much room for personal beliefs. If teachers think they're there to teach beliefs, they should think again because they are there to teach the subject material and every so often have a socratic dialogue with the students to make sure they're following it. In addition, the teachers in a history class should not be able to fail a student for an essay that, though is historically accurate, he or she does not agree with.

I think kids regardless are gonna love Obama at first of course any person who doesn't work for a living like kids are gonna love his ideas & the left's idea of equal this equal that. Until they grow up & then you see it throughout history the left always start out good but its us the right who clean up the mess.

I agree the far right needs to lighten up with moderates like me even though I'm only slightly moderate it is hurting the party . Its the core of the right no matter how far you lean that makes us a great party. If we can keep those ideals and work together then we'll stay on the easily seen path we have been on for years.
But you will always have someone who thinks everything should be handed to them for free with programs like welfare that the left has already sucked into thinking government is best. We have to remind our children you work hard & you might just have a comfortable life but if you really work hard the sky is the limit.
That's the key nothing is free especially when it deepens the hold & makes people even more dependent on the government . The left is getting & has been desperate for a long time hence the passing of health care we'll see how dems & independents like cap & trade when the electric bill hits the doorstep. They are already looking real bad The right will win in NOV.
