Obama. The democrats really burned the republicans these past couple days. In the republican convention all they talked about was how bad the economy was because of Obama and how Obama wouldn't do anything if he was elected again, while the democrats talked about the good things they actually did and that democrats don't want to fight against the republicans but work with them and Obama has proved that in his presidency. Almost half his cabinet is republican so I think Obama is really focusing on whose ideas are better but which ones would help the countries middle class and help create jobs.

I think that Republicans focus on the economy because you can make all the jobs in the world but that does not help if it spend 1 Trillion + a year. The debt went up 4 Trillion when Bush was in office for 8 years. Obama did that in 4. One of the lowest years of debt rising during Bush was during the tax cuts.

Another thing healthcare. I mean its great and all but he will pay for the medicine,operations etc. All that would do is put us into more debt.

I think I would rather want our country in debt then have some kids starve because their parents can't work and have to rely on welfare. I think that if we stabilize our economy and have people stop relying on welfare which I think comes from people's taxes(not sure) we can slowly REALLY SLOWLY pay our off our debt. I'm not that involved in our government, i've just been taking notice these couple months so I might sound like a noob lol.

To answer your question most of welfare comes from taxes. And taxes will always be there so no one will starve. But you are right we do need more jobs but Obama's job creation aka stimulus package did more bad then good imo.

I can't vote (I'm British) but, I'll go for Obama.

Obama is the lesser of two evils, but either way you'll get pretty much the same crap. The entire political process needs changing.

I would vote for Romney if I could. No way am I supporting a mediocre America filled with people who want more than they worked for.

I find this post interesting.

First off, what makes you think America was ever, at least in recent history, more than mediocre?
Secondly, what is "filled with people who want more than they worked for" supposed to mean exactly? I live in the UK and can only assume this is regarding welfare or something.
