Have you learned America?

I'm watching media report after report tell me how Obama is more personable than Romney, I'm sorry, America, we tried the "POTUS is cool" thing and where did it get us? More war, less money, more unemployment, less jobs and a lower GDP with a higher debt. Yeah, so cool does not equal prosperous. The last successful "cool" president was Clinton, and he wasn't cool until after his second term. Before him it was Kennedy, and he was only cool to those who didn't have to go to work and skipped out on Vietnam. Before that, you're looking to Roosevelt and I don't mean Franklin D.. Anyway, as I say, we've tried the cool non-credential "different" thing, it failed horribly. Time to go back to the basics. Does Romney have faults, absolutely..but so does everyone. What Romney towers over Obama in is experience in making money work and attempting programs that are completely agains the objectives of his party. Look at Mass health care, while we all point to its socialistic failure now, remember that when he passed it, he was in lock-step with Democrats and in opposition with the Republicans party he headed. That is a person who at minimum is willing to work outside the box. And while we here Obama's camp rant on and on about how Bain Capital sent jobs overseas, by far the biggest job shipper in the history of America was the beloved Democrat, Bill Clinton (hello NAFTA). So please, don't hand me that BS. I'm an independent and I'll tell you the ONLY thing I need to look at during an election, am I and my family better off now than we were in the last election; the answer is no. Simply no. So what does that mean, change it. So to quote Obama "we need change in Washington". Anyone who is willing to step out of their pre-defined mold of political guidance will realize that America is in a far worse position now than it was 4 years ago. Whether that would have happened regardless of leadership will be determined about 25 years from now. Personally, I'm not staking my families future on what Ive seen over the last 3+ years.

Fox News or CNN?

Ah, Fox and CNN. Where to start. Each one has its own bias. I was, for a very very long time an avid CNN viewer, literally the TV would be on CNN when I got home from work and stay there. Until the 2008 elections. I could not believe how much CNN backed the Democratic party. Almost to a point of annoyance. For every on RNC member on a panel there would be 2 DNC, usually one black man and one woman. The RNC person was almost always a white male. What I couldn't believe was the entire lack of respect for the opposing candidates on the Republican side. Now before you go "damn right-wing Republican" understand these FACTS: - Member of the Democratic Party - Libertarian - NRA Life Member What does that equal? Me. Not a single word up there said Republican. In fact, I've never voted for a presidential republican candidate. Maybe my lack of line loyalty allows me to have an open mind where others seen inherently sheltered. I have very strict guidelines for leaders; 1) be hon...
