America the beautiful! You know her; all nations on the earth know her. She stands brave and proud in the world and represents justice, equality, liberty, and freedom. She lies between two oceans: the Atlantic and the Pacific and shares her Northern border with Canada. In the beginning she was alone except for the native Indians, wild animals, birds, and plants, and was unique to a new unexplored part of the earth.

I stood on Ellis Island and faced America’s New York Harbor. I saw the Statue of Liberty and I stared in awe at her and her crown. Her crown was closed to public entry since September 11, 2001, an event ordered by President George W. Bush. The crown was opened to the public again on July 4, 2009 by President Barack Obama, and 250 people visited the Statue of Liberty and her crown to celebrate her 233rd birthday. Once again I stand on Ellis Island. I face New York Harbor and I see the Statue of Liberty. I stare at her and her crown in awe and she welcomes me to my beloved country. The country has faced many dangers and has had many presidents through the years: They ranged from brave, strong, and constructive to mediocre, dry, and ineffective until Barack Hussein Obama became her 44th president and changed hope and change to fear and chaos and the American dream became the American nightmare. Become a free market warrior: Do not be silent and do not be scared. Unleash your voice and your vote. Stand up for your country. Remember the future favors the bold. Who is this young man, where did he come from, and where is he going? A handsome 6`2" lean frame with intellectual and orational abilities that brought him prominence and adoration describes the 44th president of the United States. Born on August 4, 1961 in Honolulu, Hawaii, he connects with the people, white and black. His black father, Barack Hussein Obama, Sr., belonged to a tribe in Kenya on the East coast of Africa, and his white mother, Ann Dunlap, was born in Wichita, Kansas, a town in the United States. Barack’s parents separated when he was 2 years old and his father returned to Africa. When he was 10 years old his father came to the United States for Christmas and spent a few weeks with him. He returned to Africa and was killed in a car crash. In 1967 Barack’s mother married Lolo Soetoro from Indonesia. Barack and the family lived 4 years just outside of Jakarta. While chickens and ducks ran around the backyard and baby crocodiles swam in a fenced pond Barack cared for his pet ape named Tata.

Barack Obama lived with his grandmother and went to Punahou High School in Hawaii. He graduated in 1979. Upon graduation he received a Bachlor’s degree from Columbia University in 1983 and graduated Magna Cum Laude from Harvard Law School in 1991. He then worked as a Community Organizer (ACORN) in Chicago, Illinois. ACORN stands for AmeriCorp.

What is Community Organizers for Reform Now? It is still working for social change and justice and national rights for everyone. Acorn was founded by Wade Ratsky in 1970. There were 110 chapters in 40 states at the time and it spent 2 million dollars to help get out the vote in the presidential campaign of 2008. Those working for Acorn were paid 20 dollars daily. They must have had 20 registrations each day or they faced termination. Barney Frank, the Senator from New York, called Acorn a wonderful organization. Its founder was fined 1 million dollars for vote fraud. The fine was never paid. Marcel Reid and Karen Inman worked for Acorn and wanted to see its books. Acorn wanted them terminated but the local board to which they belonged wanted them to stay. A financial war instead of one with guns ensued, all in the name of social change and justice. The United States Congress finally investigated Acorn and stopped funding it..

Today Acorn consists of more than 260 organizations with a socialistic philosophy. The Reverend Gloria Swieringa was the National Board Chairman and Bertha Louis was its Chief Organizer. More than 400 thousand people have been working to help poor people with house foreclosures, lead poisoning, and affordable housing for 40 years: Acorn lobbys for the poor. It donated 31 million dollars to the democratic campaign in 2007 and 11 million dollars in 2008. This Robin Hood-like organization refused to open its books to Bill O’Reilly, host of The Factor. The National Board Chairman appeared on The Factor on May 28, 2009. It was her fiduciary responsibility to know where the money was and where the books were, but she could not account for the money nor produce the books. Do you know that President Barack Obama worked for Acorn and once served as its lead attorney?

Do you know that the United States is becoming a socialistic nation? Socialistic capitalism best describes the country today. Do you know it might be worse than that? What evidence is there to write such a thing?

The President of the United States, Barack Hussein Obama, wanted more government control in your life: Your health care in the hands of the government. He wanted a new energy policy, Cap and Trade, and a new education program with new objectives, new ideas, and new books. He was taking advantage of a shrinking economy and a people losing their bearings, their voice, and their sense of identity. Do not underestimate Americans. They would soon relinquish their apathetic chairs.

President Barack Obama said we live in the greatest country in the world and he hoped you would join him while he changed it: He wanted to build a new foundation. Do you want to join the President, his 44 czars, 40 professional staff, and his 280 national security staffers who serve at the pleasure of the President to change your country? The cult-like attachment to the black man in the White House was unprecedented. America moved in an industrial coma. Can we change America before he does? Join me while we search for the answer.

Barack Obama became interested in politics and ran against Blair Hull in a primary election in 2006 and against Jack Ryan in the general election 2008. He had very little money, but George Sorros found him and politics brought them together and it was so nice to have a friend with money.

George Sorros, a philanthropist born on August 12, 1930 in Budapest, Hungary, was an international financier, a billionaire investor with an extreme left agenda and he became the hand in Barack Obama’s glove.

Few people realize that a loophole in McCain-Feingold allowed Sorros to be particularly generous in support of Obama’s political campaigns. The so called Millionaire Exception allowed contributions far in excess of the 23 hundred dollar limit. The loophole allowed Soros and his family to contribute 60 thousand dollars. Sorros had connections to more than 527 groups and no one knows how much money was donated to Obama’s campaigns. When running against Blair Hull in the primary and Jack Ryan in the general election in 2006, both men lost to Barack Obama due to their scandalous behavior.

After Barack Obama’s victory in the primary and in the general election he became the most radical politician since the socialists of the 1930’s and 1940’s. Even McGovern was not as radical. You could call him the Senator from Illinois.

During the vicious campaign the New York Times Magazine reported earlier in the year that David Axelrod, Obama’s chief political and media adviser, may well have been behind the leak of the story that doomed the Hull candidacy and paved the way for hope and change.

Did Barack Obama conveniently forget the fact that after the Blair Hull and Jack Ryan debacles he no longer was running against millionaires and was not entitled to donations that exceeded the normal campaign limits? Did he see fit to return any of the excess amount he collected under the Millionaire Exception? It was easy to forget.

In 2006 Barack Hussein Obama ran in the primary election against Hillary Clinton, the Senator from New York, and after a close primary election in 2008 Barack Obama became the Senator from Illinois looking to be the President of the United States of America.

George Sorros came back on the scene and broad sided the pro-Israeli lobby calling for the Democratic Party to liberate itself from the influence of the lobby and stated that America should be dealing with the terrorist group that governed the Palestinians. This was published in the New York Times. Two weeks later Barack Obama attended a fundraiser at the New York residence of Steven and Judy Gluckstern. George Soros was in the audience and he brought his moneybags along.

On February 19, 2007 Barack Obama gave a speech in front of the Old State Capitol Building in Springfield, Illinois. He discussed his reason for running for President of the United States of America and he summed up the primary contest between Hillary Clinton and himself. He outlined his organizational principles and repeated this speech throughout the campaign when there was no possibility the country would come out of a deep recession.

What caused the recession of 2007-2008? Easy money caused the rise in asset accumulation, adequate regulation and oversight were missing, and the good times rolled: The red car looked good in your new oversized garage; the 2nd car came in handy; the kids enjoyed the lodge at the lake; your neighbor looked around and saw nothing coming; the frenzy became contagious; the credit cards came through the mail; the gravy train picked up speed; and the good times rolled.

The banks became nervous. They picked up your toxic house and stopped lending. Your extra car went back to its rightful owner; the reservation at the lake was cancelled; and the gravy train slowed down. The banks bundled up toxic mortgages and sold them to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac who sold them to brokerage firms who sold them to investors who invested in the stock market, and the stock market began its steep rise.

America’s Domestic Product (GDP) began contracting and capital investment declined. Lending was less available and large companies were unable to borrow money. General Motors slowed production and layed off workers. Chrysler followed suit and its workers joined their buddies. General Motors was bailed out with your tax dollars: The union received 30%, the government received 60%, and the bondholders divided the rest. General Motors became Government Motors, Chrysler became Chrysler Fiat, and by July 3l, 2009 America lost 2,92l million jobs.

Barack Obama knew opportunity when he saw it. He began his political calculations, not national security calculations, and an economic downturn presented him with crises too good to pass up.

President Barack Obama dreamed of a big spending gamble to change a free market to a freeloader market: He planned to change abortion laws, reduce defense spending, institute universal health care, new green energy, and universal education. All highly funded and regulated by the government. His big government would give him power over the private sector, increase taxes on everyone, and decrease salaries to CEOs and to you. But do not worry, be happy: Barack Hussein Obama will take care of you and we can all sing Kumbaya.

In February 2007 Barack Obama began his run for president of the United States. The enormous crowds greeted him with cheers of adoration. He appeared like a rock star and the college crew loved him. He had savvy use of the internet, preached hope and change, and had the support of the Reverend Jeremiah Wright, William Ayers, an extreme leftist, Acorn’s huge contribution of 33 million dollars for his presidential campaign fund, and George Soros’ moneybags helping him along the way.

Reverend Jeremiah Wright from the Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago damned America in one of his speeches. He believed that all of God’s children should be equal. Reverend Wright was the pastor for Barack Obama for 20 years while he was growing up. He supported Barack Obama all the way.

On April 9 Barack Obama attended a fundraiser at the New York residence of Steven and Judy Gluckstern. George Soros was in the audience. He brought his extra moneybags with him.

In 2008 he ran against John McCain, the senator from Arizona, to become the most powerful man in the world, and on January 20, 2009 Barack Hussein Obama became the 44th President of the United States of America. And people cheered.

On February 17, 2009 the first thing the new President did was initiate a new 787-Billion-Dollar Stimulus Bill calling for quick action for the economy needed immediate help. No one knew what was in the bill but with help from three Republicans: Susan Collins, Olympia Snow, and Arlen Specter, an incredible amount of money was ready to do its job and the nation waited to see something happen.

On March 9, 2009 the new President lifted restrictions on federal funding for research on new stem cell research. On March 11 he added combat troops and civilian personnel to extremists’ threats in Afghanistan and Pakistan.On February 23 he began stress tests for the nation’s largest banks, and on March 3l he announced his intent to have most combat troops out of Iraq by 2010. On April 13 he eased restrictions allowing Cuban-Americans to visit relatives in Cuba and to send money there more easily. On April 17 he moved to rein in greenhouse gases with regulations while pushing Europe to act on its own. On April 20 he started ordering agency directions to take 100 million dollars out of the upcoming budget that had a bottom line exceeding 3.5 trillion dollars.

With the switch of Arlen Specter from the Republican Party the United States had a democratic filibuster proof senate: Democrats now owned the good changes and the bad changes. No more blaming George W. Bush. In 100 days President Barack Hussein Obama held the country in his hands. It was time for hope and change in your life. Did you vote for the President’s hope and change?

Numerous people voted for Barack’s hope and change but regreted that vote. Did you regret your vote?

On April 29, 2009 President Barack Obama marked his first 100 days as President of United States of America at a town hall meeting in Arnold, Missouri, the heartland of the country. Its people typically voted the way the country votes. The High School Principal, Kevin Reseiter, said the county was popular with politicians who like to use a slice of middle America to promote their message. The President had generated a new cohesion at the White House and now he focused on raising your taxes and spending your money.

His 787-Billion-Dollar Stimulus Bill was not spent on recovery but on stimulating the Democratic Party and the new President. Ask not how you were doing, but ask how your country was doing during the first l00 days of hope and change. President Obama’s stimulus bill was to generate jobs by building highways and bridges. No record could be read to learn where the money went. It was discovered that the stimulus money did not go to highway and bridge construction: California spent its 6.8 billion dollars to pay teachers and firemen and Florida spent 3.5 million dollars for the construction of a new tunnel for turtles wanting to cross Route 27 in Florida: They would not use the one built for them earlier. Main spent 380 thousand dollars for overhauling lighthouses in the state; Missouri spent 625 million dollars on tax refunds and Medicaid payments; and New York spent 451 thousand dollars for the study of the breeding habits of blueberries and cranberries. Over 8 billion dollars were given to Acorn. Almost 2 trillion dollars were spent to stimulate the economy. So much for shovel ready. What is in store for the next 1,362 days? Get ready, we must go there now for this is a fast moving new President.

On May 6, 2009 President Obama announced that detained prisoners should be released, Guantanamo closed, and the prisoners should receive assistance such as food stamps. No nation would take the prisoners. Finally, France took one, Albania took 1 and 14 others ran a restaurant in the serenity and beauty of the Island of Bermuda. The others are still in Guantanamo: The smart democrats refused to fund the 80-million-dollar project to close Guantanamo. Instead, it spent the money for living quarters for the remaining prisoners and it became a long-term project. As of December 3l, 2009 Thompson, Illinois was the leading contender to house detainees from GITMO.

On May 7, 2009 President Barack Obama ordered stress tests for banks drawing a dividing line through the new landscape of America forever. The tests revealed that 9 out of 19 banks were stronger than expected: They repaid billions of bailout dollars. The other side revealed that the weakest giants confronted the challenge of accepting increased government ownership with strings attached. Troubled banks were ordered to raise a total of 75 billion dollars in equity capital.
