I am befuddled! After all that the citizens in the Republic
know about Mitt Romney, there are many in the country that prefers him over
President Obama. I'm amazed that the 2012 presidential election is going to be
so close.
I am an educated individual and like so many other citizens, I have more than one job to supplement my income, but is President Obama to blame for this and will Mr. Romney somehow make it all better for me and the other 98%?

The Republic experienced an economic depression in the
1930's and during that crisis, the citizens reelected Roosevelt
three times because they believed he could and he did guide them through it.
The voters at the time didn't choose panic over substance and despite a
whopping 25% unemployment rate in the country; the citizenry remained steadfast
and was later rewarded with a booming economy. President Obama is not Franklin Roosevelt,
but he's definitely not Ronald Reagan or George W. Bush either. This didn't
happen overnight. It took 8 years for the economy to erode faster than Donald
Trump's toupees' and we expect President Obama to fix it in 4 years? The entire
Justice League couldn't accomplish this task. We must stay the course. Did we
not learn anything when President Jimmy Carter was tossed out for Reagan
despite the fact that it was Reagan's pal, Gerald Ford and Nixon that kept the
nation in an economic recession? Instead of asking "Are you better off
than you were 4 years ago, you should ask, "will you be better with Mr.
Romney?
Like all former presidents, President Obama has his flaws, but he has handled the affairs of the nation very well up to this point during his more than three years at the helm. And Romney? He failed at creating jobs as a governor and as a Bain executive, he has a Ph.D. in indecisiveness and he is completely out of step with the needs of the middle class, working poor and poor citizenry. And yet, if the 2012 presidential election was held today--Romney might win.
This presidential election is a referendum on our resolve and tenacity to be vigilant during this time of hardship. On one side is the incumbent who needs us to keep moving forward to weather this storm of economic turmoil and reach the valley of economic prosperity. While on the other end of the spectrum is the presumptive presidential candidate who wants us to panic and press the restart button.
