Okay, I've been trying to understand each candidate's "promises" for Presidency. However, I'm really stumped on one issue and maybe you Obama supporters can enlighten me. What change, exactly, is this man talking about? I mean, what CHANGES does this man keep talking about which can benefit the U.S.? So far, I see NO benefits and all I keep hearing is "Vote Obama for Change" but I never really hear from any of you as far as what CHANGES provoke your support!
Universal healthcare? I don't see a change for the better! I don't believe in it (sorry) and especially if I'm expected as a middle-class working citizen, to give others a free ride while I work so hard each day.
Raising taxes to send overseas? How does that benefit us? I mean, don't we have our own issues right here that need attention?
Education - I don't see anything he has said which will benefit our declining educational system.
What about gas? A temporary cut? Won't work! The cut is only in the taxes, but these companies will continue to raise their prices to make up for it. And, why is it temporary? Why not do something permanent?
Going "Green" - well, that's all fine and dandy if the man can lower the cost to do so. Right now, I think going green costs way too much and if he feels that it would better benefit this country, why wouldn't he do something to control the pricing?
These are just a few of my questions. So far, the only "change" I see benefits either the ones who refuse to work, other countries, or the gas companies and research companies for what I see as a total gimmick!
I'd love to hear from some of you who fully support Obama in detail. I mean, FULL detail as to WHY you feel he's the man for the office. I'm tired of hearing "because he's about change." Please elaborate!
