    Okay...here is a quick election quiz.

    No peaking and no checking google. (I can really do nothing to regulate this so I'll take scouts honor.)

    Off the top of your head, name for me three essential planks in candidate Obama's platform that he will accomplish if re-elected.

    Re-elect me because I didn't finish wrecking your country in 4 years. Er, re-elect me because I deserve a second chance?

    1. More of the same
    2. Still more of the same
    3. Even more of the same

    Followed by complete financial collapse of the U.S. and then the rest of the world.

    1. Raise taxes on the rich so they pay their 'fair share'.
    2. Bring the troops home from Afghanistan
    3. ??

    I really had to think hard on this one. I couldn't think of a third issue that he's been running on.

    Perhaps "investing" (translation: spending) in the middle class, but that's so nebulous it defies definition.

    1. Continue to try to do the stuff he promised 4 years ago but didn't get around to doing
    2. Make America prosperous
    3. Legalize gay marriage

    That is what I've heard....you know it just kinda shows that this election isn't about anything except ideology. The Republicans nominated someone without an ideology...thus the reason he hasn't been able to present one and the President has been riding on easy street.

    I predict on the morning of November 7, 2012, ten thousand threads will be started on BB about how near the Second Coming is, just 44 days short of the end of the Mayan calendar.

    This election was over before it got started. The RNC only has itself to blame.

    In the end, I have to agree with you, but Obama is not going to get reelected with my help. That does not negate the fact that we the people sat on our duffs for at least four years and allowed these two to emerge as the final choice to lead this nation. One reaps what they sow. Mark my word, four years from now, it will be the same. People will learn as much from the 2012 election as they did the 2008 election, which is nothing.

    Endless threads about Obama and Romney change nothing.

    Bigger gov't (more than 50% of all Americans being employed or dependant on), rich "paying their fair share", gay marriage. There is also the fight to keep Obamacare intact, distance ourselves from Israel, and remove our troops frrom Afghanistan so he can pat himself on the back.

    I honestly think Romney will win though. The link between the RCC, Knights of Templar, Islam, and mormonism are too big to overlook with what I believe will be ww3 in the middle east within years.
