Our goverment needs a major change...I think Barack Obama would bring that to the White House. Enough is Enough with what has been going on, it is time for change, and like it or not (you southern boys) Barack is the man to do it. I have read his book "The Audacity of Hope" and it was one great read. If you haven't read it, go to your local Library and get it, you won't believe what you read. The next book of his I want to read is Hopes and Dreams. Come on people, its time we open our eyes, our hearts and our minds and realize that The United States at the rate it is going is in trouble. We need to make some changes, and Barack isn't afraid to make those changes. How do you feel about $4.00 a gal for Gas, $4.00 for a gal of Milk, our food full of e-coili, come on....things have to change and they have to happen soon.

In addition to his biography, which I will be reading, it is also important to read up on the bills that he sponsors. One that I intend to read up on is called the Global Poverty act...Senate bill 2433....there is some controversy on this bill as it intends for the US to pay 7% and I believe in actual dollars it is in the millions to the UN....and that is us taxpayers footing that bill to help end poverty around the world....meanwhile we have homeless in our own streets....
I do know I want to know as much about all the candidates and the bills they sponsor before I go into that voting booth....there are far too many people who are probably voting for a change based upon his ethnicity or voting against him based upon his ethnicity...
If this bill goes into effect our taxes will go up....and our gas will not be $4.00/gallon and the milk will not be $4.00/gallon.
So I am definitely reading up on this one.
