Hypothetical: Mitt Romney Wins the election?

I'm a socialist -- not a liberal -- and I don't hate Freedom. Although you and I might disagree about what Freedom is, and how best to protect it. So I don't know if I'm among those you've invited to answer your question.

But the obvious answer is -- "It's still too soon to tell." The truth is, Obama for one reason or another hasn't gone a great job of restoring US economic growth and pushing down unemployment. I personally don't think that's entirely Obama's fault.

Obviously the GOP House of Representatives and the GOP minority in the Senate have worked hard to sabotage every economic proposal that Obama favored, and it's also clear that the "Blue Dog" Democrats in 2009 and 2010 did much to help the GOP do its dirty work. With both the solid Republican right and the wobbling Blue Democrat center questioning most of his economic proposals in 2009, Obama had to tread very carefully lest his economic proposals be denounced as "socialism," and for these reasons I think he pushed through an economic stimulus that was too small to work very well. As liberal economists warned at the time.

But he probably couldn't have gotten a bigger, more effective stimulus passed if he had tried. Also, as every serious business economist admits, capitalism on a GLOBAL scale is now suffering from its worst, or at least its most prolonged, financial and economic crisis in at least 75 years, since the midst of the Great Depression in the 1930s. With capitalism on a world scale being in a seemingly endless slump, it's not clear how much ability Obama or any US president would ever have to fix unemployment and cure America's economic doldrums.

Not without lots of cooperation from the Europeans and the Chinese, who have economic problems themselves and are not being especially helpful. But in any case, Obama hasn't been as economically sucessful as most presidents try to be, and the GOP is hoping to punish him for it. It's still to be seen whether the GOP strategy will win, landing Romney in the White House.

As a leftwing Democrat, I hope not. But it's going to be a close race, and I don't think we know the answer yet. -- democratic socialist.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
