CAROLE'S POLITICS

WHAT AUDACITY!
WHO IS THIS MAN WHO WANTS TO BE PRESIDENT OF THE USA? QUALIFICATIONS?

Obama is hailed by the USA young people, who are finally old enough to vote, like celeberties. They seem carried away with the privilege ... without knowing or understanding what is really at stake here ... unsure of the seriousness of what we are really voting for. This is dangerous ... as their numbers are many. This is not class officer election ... THIS ELECTION WILL CHOOSE THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, THE GREATEST COUNTRY IN THE UNIVERSE ... THE HIGHEST OFFICE IN THE WORLD. THIS IS THE PERSON WHO WILL PROTECT US AND KEEP US FREE. Do these young people realize the seriousness of their vote?

It is time the older generation, The Greatest Generation woke up and began to voice their opinions ... loud and clear. It is time for Senator McCain to take off the gloves and start swinging ... hard ... standing tough ... telling it like it really is ... revealing Barack Obama's shady backgroud, lack of experience, little accomplishments. We remember the devastation Hitler brought on Germany and what Castro did to Cuba ... how they both hoodwinked the people, then when in office, enslaved their people, putting them in chains and prisons, taking away their freedom, confiscating their property, murdered thousands, destroyed their homeland and its people.

We really know little about Barack Obama ... few ever heard of him before the election ... and what has he accomplished to be running for President of this great land? He hasn't even been in the Senate long enough to pass any legislation ... has been absent for most of the Senate votes, has spent most of his term raising money and running for office. How can a man with no record of accomplishments consider himself ready to lead our powerful nation? He grew rich in office hoarding illegal money, along with several of his colleagues. The USA carried him along, blessing him with privileges ... like ivy league educations ... it goes on and on. When our children had the grades and could afford finer colleges, they couldn't be admitted as their quota of international students were priority ... our students had to wait while places meant for our children were given to un-Americans. It is not fair. Our campuses are filled with international students. We sacrificed to send 5 children to college, paying our way ... even paying double when out of state. Many foreign students are receiving free educations, paid for by our taxpayers. WHERE IS THE OUTRAGE PEOPLE?

Our country is suffering from apathy. We are spoiled, everything is too convenient. If we do not protect our country, this could all disappear. If we elect the wrong president, one who does not honor our American ways ... our flag ... our National Anthem ... our servicemen who are sacrificing their lives to keep us free, we could wake up one morning and find a very different country than we have today. While we sit blindly and idly by ...everything we know and love could just slip away. It is frightening to say the least.

I cannot believe what is happening to our country. Where is our pride and courage? As a child, we prayed every morning in school, said The Pledge of Allegiance, and sang patriotic songs ... it was wartime, WWII and all the children saved cans and paper, rubber and took turns standing in our lookout tower at school to search for strange planes. We grew victory gardens, rationed food, gas, sugar, coffee, most everything. Kids had little candy or gum. We shared our rations. We cared about each other, checked the Honor Roll daily to see who was new on the roster or missing ... or, God forbid, killed. The whole town suffered the losses ... we knew most of the boys.

To this day, I thank God for all our brave men who served our country well and fought to keep us free. When the old vets march by, I want to get down on my hands and knees and kiss the ground they walk on. They are the true heroes ... our servicemen and our astronauts. Obama said, in his book, if elected and things were not going well, his loyalties would be with the Muslims. Now what kind of man is that who wants to be President of the United States of America? WAKE UP PEOPLE!

GOD BLESS AMERICA! GOD BLESS OUR PEOPLE TO CHOOSE OUR LEADERS WELL! GOD BLESS OUR TROUPS! GOD BLESS US ALL!
