With the weekend debates over, New Hampshire voters (and those in
other primary states) might be feeling a little hopeless. The
candidates are not inspiring, and the incumbent, for all the boost the
media attempts to provide, has proven over almost four years that
indeed the Oval Office is not a training ground. The health care
debacle, the dismal economy, the failure to reach across the aisle
effectively, the incessant campaigning that never ceased after the last
GE coupled with the lack of clarity explaining positions, the list goes
on of reasons to regard the incumbent as ineffective. But there remains
a viable alternative. Democrats, we can take our party back. In open
primaries, independents can hop aboard.
In addition to this action, and to fortify our position, we can join Americans Elect and become delegates there for HRC, and we can sign the petitions in the sidebar on this page. Click here to see a video of petition initiator Steve Rosinski with Neil Cavuto last week.
My
last two cents: I do not understand the Republican chant that Obama is
a "socialist" president. He has done nothing to protect, in any
effective way, the social safety nets established by prior Democratic
administrations. If he remains in the Oval Office any longer, we will
see these programs dismantled. He is the "anti-socialist." Do not buy
that cow.
