I am trying to figure out when this country became a business looking for a leader.  Further, I don't know when we, as a country, decided that was the proper path to follow.

Mitt Romney stands for nothing.  He changes his mind on a dime and has offered no real answers.  The fact that he wants to repeal Obamacare indicates that he is out of touch with a majority of Americans who recognize that despite the cost, we need the government to put the brakes on insurance companies who deny coverage for those who are ill.  He may know business, but this country is not a business.  It's the "fat" he wants to cut that makes this country what it is.  The fact that we can have public broadcasting ensures fairness in reporting.  Perhaps he's never listened to BBC America.  It's valuable to understand how others see this country.  Cutting funding to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting could put us on the path to dictatorship.  Well, perhaps I go too far, but PBS has a value to this country.  cutting dollars would be a mistake.

With all the people running around bitching about the fact that "one nation under god" is supposed to be removed from the pledge to the flag, I wonder if anyone understands the need for government to separate church and state.  I don't want Paul Ryan's religious fervor playing a role in my day-to-day activities.  One of the best bumper stickers I ever saw was "If you don't support abortion, don't have one"  It's how I feel.  Why are we not looking closely at the contradictions of the moral majority.  Those who will not allow a woman to choose abortion but would allow a child to starve or live in squalor.  Where is the morality in that?

The Republican Party has hijacked this country by signing the contract stating they won't hurt the rich.  One of the problems in Greece today is the fact that they had a gross dividing line between the super rich and the rest.  We are on that path now.  I simply cannot understand why this country allows corporate big wigs to get away with their shenanigans.

There is something wrong with the gross difference between pay.  We need to fight it.  Rock on you Occupy Wall Street people.  We need more like you.  We need to fight insurance companies who charge way too much for so little.  We need to rise up as a group and say "NO MORE".

As a people we need to find common ground and get on board with what is wrong with this country and start fixing it.  We can begin by compromising.  It's how great presidents get the job done.
