We have all seen the harmony disappear in our nation over the last eight years. We were promised a united country with an economy that would be robust, jobs for all those who want or need them and a peace around the globe.
What we have witnessed is a division between the races unseen since the 60's. Blacks have an unprecedented high unemployment rate while welfare and food stamps climbed to an all time high.
We have witnessed terrorist attacks even though our CIC refuses to admit that the Radical Muslims do not exist, nor their established families radicalized in mosques.
More and more immigrants are welcomed by this administration without vetting, putting our resources over a unsustainable. Obama should have run on "stability." Something we have lost.
Obama promised to be the "transparent president," proving just the opposite.
We have never experienced a ineffective leader, only to be the Apologist in Chief.
WE NEED REAL CHANGE AND WE NEED IT NOW.
WE NEED A PRESIDENT WHO WORKS FOR ALL THE CITIZENS, NOT JUST SOME OF THEM.
WE NEED TO PROTECT OUR BORDERS FROM THOSE INTENDING TO CAUSE DESTRUCTION AND TARGET AMERICANS.
WE NEED A WALL THAT PROTECTS US FROM THOSE WHO WANT TO USE OUR ECONOMY FOR SURVIVAL OF THEIR HOME COUNTRIES. WE NEED TO PROTECT OUR CITIZENS FROM DISEASES WE ONCE OBLITERATED.
WE NEED A STRONG LEADER, THAT IS HE DRAWS A RED LINE IN THE SAND, HE DOESN'T CHOOSE TO IGNORE IT SHORTLY AFTERWARDS.
WE NEED TO FORM A REAL COALITION TO DESTROY RADICAL ISLAMISTS. WE NEED TO SHOW OUR ALLIES WE INTEND TO STAND WITH THEM AND EXPECT THEM TO STAND WITH US. NO MORE APOLOGIES OF PERCEIVED SINS OF THE WEST.
WE NEED JOBS AND OUR AMERICAN MANUFACTURERS TO RETURN HOME TO A SENSIBLE TAX LAWS WITH TRADE AGREEMENTS THAT DO NOT HURT THE US AS IN THE PAST.
WE NEED TRUMP.
If you think simply electing a different president will bring "real change" in the country, I think you are being hopelessly naive.
Then again, you seem to be implying the nation was harmonious prior to Obama being elected, so that isn't really surprising in the context of this OP.
Obama has been SO bad, ineffective and clueless, it appears that the only effective change can be brought by a non politician that was not part of his disastrous administration.
The idea that the president will single handedly change race relations in the country is asinine. The best you can hope for is some small positive influence. It's probably a lot easier for a president to do damage to race relations in the country, but even there, it's just a matter of influence.
You appear to assume the president has far more power than (s)he does.
He had great power and I blame him along with Clinton and Pelosi. In every difficult situation between a police officer shooting a black, it was ALWAYS first and foremost discussed by the president stating that the Civil Rights would be guarded for the blacks and the family of the suspect. He even sent administration officials to the funerals of the proven thugs and had Sharpton, et al. work for the family to insure a guilty recommendation for the police officers. No watching out for their civil rights.
In the Cambridge fiasco, O bummer did it again when a stupid friend of his was belligerent with police officers (who received a call on someone breaking into his house)who wanted to see his ID and the fool refused, starting up with the "YO MAMA! shit. Did Obummer wait for the facts? Of course not. "Cambridge Police need a lesson in working with blacks!" Pelosi thought that BLM was great and said "God Bless Them" They set fire to businesses, loot stores and throw stones at police...
And of course, if Oshit face had a son, he would look like Trayvon Martin...again commenting on a local crime without the facts.
No, that president did great harm and let rebelling blacks that assaulting police officers is fine with him.. Protestors don't have to follow rules if they are black. What a waste of a president!
