Would you support a constitutional amendment to permit prez obama to run for a third term?

The person who responded the jobs are not here "because of obamacare" is blowing smoke...and smelly smoke it is (as in not true even a little bit). The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2009 (PPACA) passed into law in December 2009, and we have had STEADY JOBS GROWTH under the Democrats' leadership all through 2010, with millions of new private-sector jobs created due to the President's Green-Energy technologies initiative as well as his administration's ongoing and hard-hitting efforts to get foreign markets more open to receiving American-made products (earth FRIENDLY products especially, if you go to recovery.gov for the details). Since Republicans took over Congress on January 4, 2011, their focus has been on stupidly inane stuff and not on jobs.

In fact, they want to break unions, deny civil rights, de-fund education (thus COSTING US JOBS), and all sorts of other shenanigans that are fiscally inept or even INSANE in these rough economic times. President Obama did not have the power on his own to repeal those idiotic tax cuts for the wealthiest 2% of Americans, even though he did push extremely hard to allow the deficit-ballooning cuts to expire on schedule when he met with Senate Republicans at the White House to broker a compromise. What President Obama desperately needed from these ornery Senate Republicans was RATIFICATION of the vital New START Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty, which Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and his gang of obstructionists (anti-American obstructionists) wanted to block for no good reason.

He also wanted to end the filibuster on his JOBS BILL that gave CAPITAL GAINS TAX CUTS to small businesses for HIRING long-term unemployed American workers, among other benefits. Each side lost some of what they wanted and each side gained. President Obama got an extension for the long-term unemployed in order to keep consumer spending going and help desperate families; he got his small business jobs bill; he got ratification on his project for nuclear nonproliferation; etc. Republicans refused to budge on the insane tax cuts (supply side - read Picker, 2009) for millionaires and billionaires, but they yielded on the effort to make these nation-destroying fiscally irresponsible tax cuts permanent and agreed instead to only a two-year extension (adding $700 BILLION to our already huge deficit).

As Picker's research reveals, supply-side (voodoo) economics does NOT produce jobs or grow the economy. Republicans are BAD BAD BAD for the economy!

Urban Republican myth spread by lobbyist for the wealthy. People buying goods and services creates jobs! Another Urban Republican myth is that they are sincerely interested in reducing the deficit - see also tax cuts for the wealthy that added to the deficit.

And reducing the deficit does nothing for jobs or the economy in the short term - 3 to 5 years.

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.
