President elect Barack Obama, in the first 100 days in office must not worry about the length and rules of the college football season. He must however show his teeth when it comes to the big three. The economy, foreign policy and energy. Obama must also get to work reforming our nations health care system.
Barack Obama needs to play this position like a good quarterback. He must keep his vision far and wide, never eliminate any possibilities and he has to forget the mistakes that have already been made. Obama's been handed the ball in the fourth quarter, time is running out. He has many tough decisions to make in a short amount of time. He must also keep in mind the ideals and opinions of every American. Most Americans feel as though they are not represented by the elected candidates of the past. Obama needs to prove that he's not a money hungry robot using American politics as a front for his own personal agenda.
When confronting the Iraq situation Obama should keep in mind that we have troops in other places where they need not be besides Iraq. Troops should also be withdrawn from places such as Germany and Korea. It should also be kept in mind that for the last 8 years and many more before that the same foreign policy which has struggled to maintain an popularity amongst anyone is being violated by individuals in our government to set themselves and others up for a greater position of power. If meetings need to be held with other world leaders then they should be done in the light of the publics eye and not behind a veil of secrecy which has already proven to be grounds for dangerous groups such as the Builderburgs and the Bohemian Grove. World governing super elites should be kept away from each other and under control. It is these politically charged groups which are at the forefront of the worlds suffering. If Obama is what he appears to be he should have no problem at least shedding light on these groups who fuel the wars and terrorist attacks which are costing you and I billions.
The economy is in a pitfall and it's because our government is constantly borrowing money from the federal reserves to keep troops in places like Iraq, Afghanistan, Korea and Germany. The recent 700 billion dollar bailout is gonna end up costing you more than it's worth in the long run. Those stimulus checks, where do you think that money comes from. Most any money spent on any new policy is coming from a loan which is loaned out at an interest rate which makes it impossible
