Dear Editor,
In November we will have the privilege to vote for President of the United States of America, and that is a privilege we should all take advantage of.
America is a great nation but we have some serious problems in our country. It is the worst that I have ever seen in my lifetime. Unemployment has been above 8 percent for 42 months, 23 million people are without jobs, we have a very slow economy, people are losing their homes and the price of gas has risen to almost $4 per gallon, (which by the way increases the cost of food and all necessities of life). We are 16 trillion dollars in debt, and borrowing 40 cents on every dollar we spend from China. This paints a very sad and gloomy picture for the greatest nation on earth. I am an American who is very concerned about these problems.
This President and his administration have failed the American people. He promised to bring hope and change that we could believe in. I do not believe in the hope and change which I have seen. Can we honestly say a job well done Mr. President? Do we want four more years of the same or even worse? I do not believe that he deserves four more years.
I support Mitt Romney because he has proven leadership ability which this country needs. I believe that he will get this country back on track by creating jobs and lead us back to peace and prosperity.
President Obama has made the statement that America is no longer a Christian nation. America is a Christian nation which was founded by godly men with godly principles and took a stand for what was right. We need some godly people today that will take a stand for righteousness.
I encourage every Christian to pray for our country. This is the most important election in my lifetime and perhaps the history of our nation. II Chronicles 7:14 is still true today: “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” We need healing and blessings from Almighty God. We have been divided as a nation long enough and we need to be united once again.
I encourage you to pray but also to vote on Nov. 6, for the man which I believe will unite this country once again.
America can be great again! God bless the United States of America!

The economy is moving in the right direction albeit slowly. When President Obama is re-elected on November 6, you can act like an American and support his efforts or continue your neo-con ways.
Why do I think your choice is already made?
So there you have it telltales I guess everyone who didn`t vote for President Obama is a racist, and you have played your last and only card, so hurry on back to that convenience store you said you worked at and gather up some more political gems.
louis b long et al.(period)
Also, Owecommie has surpassed J. Carter as the biggest failure this country has ever known!
Like most libtards, you attack and try to degrade anyone who disagrees.
If Obama is reelected it will mean the posible failure of this nation and the American peoples way of life, we cannot continue to lavishly support a growing population of non producers and dead beats, which is completely out of control and appears to grow every day, they have no pride or feeling of remorse but just want more and more done for them and it be free of cost to them, well who pays? all the rest of us thats who.
Please do all you can to help elect Mr. Romney so that we might have a chance of recovery and remember this, it is not illegal to make and have lots of money and the people that do have money are the only ones that can invest in industries that employ the working people.

P/S telltales, please just go away, there is no hope for someone like you with such a low capacity for learning, we forgive you
How does Romney help this economy with his money piled in a Swiss bank account and money invested in the Cayman Islands and in a "blind" trust in an offshore account?
And as Sen. Kennedy said about Mitt Romney: "he is not pro-choice or pro-life, he is multiple choice on every issue."
Clinton said that we had all kinds of money as a surplus,but when the books were look over when Bush went into office we were in the hole.In other words he Lied.Just like Obama is doing and Done 4yeas ago.What has he gave to the poor or middle class.What has he gave to the Military and Vets.What has he given to people on S.S..Well I will remind you,He put a Pay Freeze on them for two years.Do you remember that.Took your money and give it to the failing auto company's,And that was not due to them not selling cars,it was because of the unions.HOW CAN YOU PAY A UNION WORKER 40.00 AND HOUR AND EXPECT A MAN MAKING 6.00 TO 12.00 AND HOUR TO PAY FOR IT.AND OBAMA LOVE'S THEM UNIONS.
