I will say that Obama did inherent a mess from Bush and at the time was the best choice for the tasks needed to be done. Romney strikes me a a sharp business dude but a rich kid that does not know how the average american lives. Just my thoughts haven't decide for sure how I will vote once in the booth.

If the Government allowed the voice of the people to be acted upon I would agree with your statement, but that isn't the case. An entire State could vote for a particular candidate, but the electoral votes could be awarded to the other candidate - the complete opposite of what the people wanted.

So far the only legacy Obama is leaving behind is runaway inflation and the fact that he more than doubled the national debt in 4 short years. Do you really think the Nation can tolerate another 4 years of wreckless spending and a President that spends more time vacationing and campaigning then he does dealing with the problems of the Nation?

Thanks Seattle `Mike for your post & opinion. I also don't like our electoral college, but I do think that "We the People", could change that for the better `if "We the People" got involved in the process... Yes we can, yes we can `if we only get involved and try It has to start somewhere/sometime ?...Why not start with you reading this ?

Elvis has left the building!

Someone said they will decide when they get in the booth. The only way you can change your mind near the end is if you are registered as an independant which I am for one.

Hi `Joe, I also am a registered independant

I vote for the person & not the party...I party `if the person I voted for gets elected & I follow their actions.
I do my best to vote for those that speak `true & act their words...I vote for those that have not sold thier souls to the special interest...I wonder why those I vote for, never get elected ?

Thanks `Joe,
I really believe that everyone should `Vote for who they believe in, but I hope they take the time to do their research/homework b-4 they Vote...

And don't Vote Blind or because someone told you to vote for a person they know nothing about...I think the TV politicial ad's are trying to brain wash some/many ? The ones I've seen are misleading & all the facts are not correct...I hope people take the time to research 4-Sure Thank You!
I'm doing my best Uncle `Sam
