Obama has chosen to be the sole anchor holding not only America, but democrats as well, in the grips of this miring recession rather than opting to be the symbolic corner stone that economic recovery grows forth and prospers from. Obama continues to blatantly refuse acknowledgement of the bleak plight surrounding many growing numbers of America's voting constituents - these economically depressed people were once members of the dwindling Middle Class when Obama took office. Now these economically challenged Americans represent the exponentially growing number of Americans with various hardships because the leader of the nation does not feel they should be calculated as a significant part of strong and continuing economic recovery to transcend this deep recession.
History is repeating itself again. During the Great Depression the leaders at the time in Washington refused to acknowledge struggling Americans. These leaders didn't want to help suffering Americans, and didn't want to admit Washington's unwillingness to aid constituents was the only reason the Great Depression lasted so long. Just as now, these officials of the Depression were content only aiding their friends, the wealthiest few. America finally emerged from the Depression only after elected officials in Washington begrudgingly and contemptuously gave continuing support to beleaguered Americans whose positions and status suffered as a direct result of the greed of the few.
Obama has proven by his arrogance and obstinance that he will ignore Americans who desperately need his support - he has shown no plans of supporting the only people who can put him back in office. Obama will not acknowledge or support the growing number of 99ers by using his position to force congress to address their constituents directly about this rising crisis, instead of cowardly ignoring these issues behind Washington's closed doors. Obama could once and for all force Washington to commit political suicide be demanding they face their constituents with their unjust stances.
However, this is unlikely to occur because Obama will not address the homeless epidemic that is spreading unchecked across America as a direct result of ignoring 99ers. Obama refuses to acknowledge this recession is anticipated to last a minimum of 430 weeks and will end (at the earliest) in 2016 according to all analysts around the world not affiliated with Washington's lies and faerytales. This list of struggling Americans goes on and on and on, and grows more and more each day while Obama continues to act like these issues don't exist and should therefore not be a concern of Washington. This perspective won't change until the attitude of the leader is changed.
Obama will lose the election because he lacks the the basic knowledge instilled in all Americans since birth, that you take care of your own first. Not only are struggling Americans not on Obama's top ten list, they never even made the list. Still he can't fathom why he's hard pressed mustering Americans to want to vote for him again.
I remember when he first took office how the only thing on his mind was forcing his healthcare reformation down the throats of Americans instead of immediately trying to mend the economy. His selfish, narrow-minded, short sighted agenda further hurt America at a critical juncture when there was the chance at a quicker economic recovery. Just like with the Great Depression, the longer Obama and Washington continue to treat struggling constituents like parasites will directly affect the cost and length of this continuing recession. Obama will have no one to blame for his political removal except his own downright hateful and blatant unwillingness to put forth any energy to aid Americans who can elect him or oust him.
Obama's own actions are the only reason why he will be a one term President. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Please note, I have a hard time using the word president in the same sentence with the name Obama because the title president is one of respect that is earned. Obama clearly has never earned the right to be called president when it comes to his handling of the American constituent crisis.
