Europeans are right- Americans ARE idiots.

I think having a black president is a MAJOR step for America, and shows the rest of the world how far we as a nation have developed beyond our own prejudices and immaturities. I was very hopeful we would have a black president, or a female president, before I hit 30.

However, this is NOT who I was hoping for. Obama's lack of leadership skills makes me question where our nation will be lead. His un-American beliefs lead me to wonder what his intents are for our country. His friend list makes me question his morals though I shouldn't because the one thing he IS direct about are his pro-death beliefs. So, regardless, none of his choices should surprise me.

Being a military wife, I'm curious what's going to happen to our troops overseas. Is it going to be like Vietnam and he'll leave them over there and forget about them? Or is he going to pull them out immediately like he first claimed? Or rather, like he's claimed the last few weeks, will he pull them out of IRAQ in the next 16 months...never said anything about sending them to any other coutries such as Afghanistan, Kuwait, Japan, Russia, etc...the list is quite long.

Basically, we've just elected the smooth-talking salesmen from "The Music Man"..."and we've got trouble, which starts with 'T' which rhymes with 'P' and that stand for 'Pool.'" Entice the public with song and dance, give them what they want to hear, and link it all together somehow. Oh, and don't forget the free handouts! Business 101- to increase sales, entice your core audience with something free (Can I get a WhooWhoo!!! for WELFARE!)

Goodbye Democracy...you've had a good run. Hello Socialism!
