GUESS I'D BETTER STOP NOW!
He wants all the glory, adoration and fringe benefits of being POTUS, without having to assume any of the responsibilities of the office!
The glory, adoration and fringe benefits include respect for the office (no matter
what his personal behaviour is), a luxury Air Force I at his disposal (which really
makes campaign a joy), catered parties for his friends with Kobe steaks and
famous entertainment on Wednesdays, the ability to Tee up at any golf course
of his choice on a moment's notice, Posh vacations for his family and friends,
secret service coverage for his presidential advisor, TV time anytime he wants
to speak to the voters, etc. etc. etc.
The responsibilities include keeping our country safe at home and abroad, competent
leadership in keeping our economy healthy and citizens employed and restoring
our status and prestige in the world as the leader as we always have been.............It doesn't mean blaming everyone else for out incompetence.
That is what the picture posted says to me.
much that actually hates the responsibility of leadership.... as 0bama does.
love this country and am afraid of what we might become under four more
years of 0bama.
He has already stopped the missile defence shield for Poland and Western Europe,
unilaterally reduced our nukes and given a few Alaskan Islands to Russia...........
What else is it that Putin wants from his dupe 0bama? I don't think
American can afford another four years of this appeasing president.
interfere with his reelection. Now it looks like his "spiking the football and dancing in the end zone" taking credit for killing UBS to highlight his foreign policy credentials....might
be to his undoing. Going to a fundraiser while his Ambassador to Libya was being murdered (the Ambassador was missing for 8 hours, and the attack started at
around 8pm.) isn't going to sit well with the American people. How many Muslim
countries are now having anti-American protest, including Pakistan, who has
nukes? Yes, it is 0bama's foreign policy, and it ain't pretty.
he, personally, needs his ass kicked in order for him to learn the difference.
free trade enriches both sides.
The playing field was not level before the job killing "free trade" agreements were passed.
no industry can count on being preeminent forever. its when they think they are that someone, hungrier, appears.
steel is an excellent example. autos are another.
i'm sure that we can always negotiate a better deal, but our manufacturing woes are self inflicted.
maybe its something even simpler. maybe its just our spending beyond our receipts?
Every single level of our government is bankrupt, due to their income and property tax bases being destroyed by the actions of our federal government.
Internet commerce did not help their sales tax base much either.
positively.
there are three ways to create wealth. farming, mining and manufacturing. under manufacturing, one way to grow that is exporting, and that's based on your comparative advantage. yes. the Chinese sell us boatload after boatload of cheap stuff because their advantage is cheap labor. good for them. they have parlayed that advantage into wealth. we sell them one aircraft. we parlayed THAT into wealth.
here in America, if the only thing you have to sell is labor, you must compete against the whole world to do it cheaper.
if we didn't import any oil, we'd be the biggest (or 2 or 3) exporter in the world and all the benefits of exporting would accrue to us.
its oil that is key...
i'll agree completely that the gov't is massively screwed up.
so. you'd kill internet commerce?
Matt. things change. its the nature of life.

it was released as a motivational book, but its now, believe it or not, included in many business degree courses under 'management'.
