Americans, who are you going to vote for? Who do you think will win?
Why do you support the candidate that you do? What are the viewpoints that you most strongly agree with, or disagree with on the opposition?

Obama has actually done very well considering the circumstances when he took over office
Obama succeeding in getting a national healthcare program which now covers children on their parents healthcare until 26 years old. He eliminated the ability of insurance companies to refuse coverage due to "pre-existing conditions," and has allowed millions and millions of Americans who previously were uncovered, to now have healthcare
He also succeeded in saving the Auto industry. In the midst of it's collapse he managed to bailout GM and Ford, saved thousands of jobs, and revived the American car industry, as well as increasing the MPG, fuel economy bill, which requires manufacturers to increase fuel efficiency on all new vehicles.
Also captured/ killed Osama Bin Laden
And finally, off the top of my head, he has also managed to decrease the national unemployment rate. I believe the current unemployment rate is the lowest (or close to) the lowest since he entered office.
Fuel prices have also decreased slightly and seem to be holding
I think he is flawed but I think he is a better option than Romney.

"Affordable Healthcare Act" is corporate welfare.
Saving the auto industry was corporate welfare
Killing Bin Laden, plus countless innocent civilians in his continued war on terror.
Obama has nothing to do with the fuel price or unemployment rate.
So yeah, we killed one guy that may have been responsible for 3000 deaths and only had to start World War 3 to do it.
The system works.
Without him bailing out the auto industry and the banking industry our country would be in much worse shape than it is today
Obama wasnt in office when we started the war with Iraq/ Afghanistan, so you cant put that on him, but he has certainly done a much better job as Commander in Chief than George Bush did. He has essentially helped bring this war to a close. While there is still fighting on the ground, he has lived up to his pledge to withdrawal all combat troops.
And of course Obama has a lot to do with the unemployment rate

The Affordable Healthcare act doesnt implement a tax on the middle-class at all.. How did you come up with that?
For people who already have health insurance, nothing changes at all.
For people who dont have healthcare, it allows them to buy into the gov't healthcare at a cheaper rate than insurance companies charge
------------------------------------------
Vehicles are certainly starting to get higher and higher MPG. And those numbers are accurate because they have to be. There are optimal MPG and average MPG, they are two different figures.
------------------------------------------
Seals Team 7 carried out the operation, but it was Obama who made the choice on the intel, whether or not to take him out. Ive read a shit ton about the actual operation and Obama played a very key role in the mission. He actually made sure there was the third chopper there which ended up being crucial since one copter was unable to be flown away from the operation and had to be blown up.
------------------------------------------
I dont keep track of the welfare rate so I cant speak on that, but unemployment is certainly going down, and the economy does appear to be getting better. More jobs are becoming available, and incentives are being provided for new-hires.
------------------------------------------
Obama isnt perfect but I really do feel like he is doing the best job he could possibly be doing based on the economic situation when he first took office. And I feel optimistic about the future.
I do agree that him being a democrat has led to an increase in the national debt, but we had to start somewhere to dig out, and I think his new tax (extension of some of the George Bush tax cuts) will help off-set some of the large expenditures. There is also plans to slash defense spending.

Your sister is going to love that card I am sending her
My buddy ate some mushrooms tonight. I am DJ'ing for him and he is having an amazing time. He was super depressed going in, and I told him to wait until he had a clear mind, but he insisted on tripping and he's loving it!!!

no one is sucking dick
I merely pointed out FACTS about what he has done while in office
If it sounds good to you and you consider that "dick sucking," then so be it
I am asking for opinions regarding the 2 candidates.
And bailing out the banks didnt "orchestrate," the financial crisis, it stopped it from getting worse. Think what would happen if the banks fully collapsed.
Next time you start moving those fat little fingers over ur keyboard, think first.
And I am not ignorant or stupid regarding politics or the global environment, I am actually extremely well versed in it. My political knowledge supersedes most Americans. Just because my thoughts dont agree with yours doesnt make them any less valid
edit- in one breathe Obama has nothing to do with the capture/ kill of Osama Bin Laden, but he is responsible for every single drone strike? I think not.... And i dont even know what 16 year old american citizen u are talking about, link?

at least you answered the question
will you not be voting at all, or just for neither of the two major parties?
I think Stein for the Green Party is just as bad as either of the mainstream ones
