The Middle Class in America

Presently, one of the major events in the Presidential Campaign is upon us. We all have a stake in the outcome! What everyone wants is "WHAT'S GOOD FOR AMERICA!" So here's my message to you Mr. President and to you Mr. Romney. I am from the "middle class", the great unwashed, the hard workin' blue collar slug, hard partyin', not afraid of nuthin', unqualified love for my country, the flag, and spirit of America, God fearin', respect for my fellow man, and willing to serve in the defense of my country, freedom and "the American Way!" What this means to each of you is this. You can both tell me how great and wonderful you are, have been, or will be. That's fine. But at the end of the day, I want someone as President who will lead this country back to prosperity, peace w/honor, and respect from our friends and enemies around the world. I want a President who is smart. Yeah, smart. You can be intelligent but if you're not smart, then get out of the way and let someone who knows what to do get on with it. In other words, "let the big kids do it!" I want a President who will be straight with me! Yeah, I know that's sometimes hard because "politicians" have come to believe that can't tell "We The People" the truth because you won't get elected. This belief is part of why the leadership is corrupt. How can I say that you ask? You tell me Mr. President/Mr. Romney, why do we have ethics committees in government? Aren't you elected to do the right thing for the right reasons? I firmly believe that the "middle class" is beginning to realize what's going on in this country. They see individuals like Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, the Black Caucus and all the Dems in the past 50 years of American politics say how they are helping the poor blacks get better education, jobs and better opportunies, a fair and level playing field. Just count up the failures of government intervention and outright theft and corruption by Jackson and Sharpton, so called reverends - men of the cloth. Just look at the record on the money stolen beginning with Lyndon B. Johnson's "Great Society". Just check out the "public housing projects" in Harlem. Remember a government agency known as HUD. A nickname for money laundering, payoffs and paybacks to politicians by housing developers and politicians. Don't take my word for it, do the math (research money spent since the '60's.) What a concept! An honest politician! An honest President! An honest Senator! An honest Congressman! So here's my bottom line Gentlemen! I want someone who will lead this country! Stop the partisanship! Don't worry about presenting and explaining facts and figures to me. Just admit that the last presidential/congressional terms have been bad for America and you're going to fix it! Fix it, dammit! Fix it and you have my vote!
