ran 2.6 miles
Today ends my tenth week of running against Barack Obama. I have run 185.6 miles, averaging 2.65 miles per day. Today also marks less than two years of counting down to the next presidential election. By the time November 7, 2012 arrives much will have occurred in America, and the rest of the world, and hopefully we will wake up to an alternative president after the November 6 election. It’s going to be an exciting two years to watch. Up until now, Liberals had an overwhelming source of power, possessing the Presidency, the Senate and the House. After November 2, they lost some important democrats in the Senate and completely lost their majority in the House, demoting Nancy Pelosi to a common representative like all of the others. What will make these two years so exciting is the fact that every single political figure will be studied under a microscope and equally scrutinized with every action they make. The past two years were easy for conservatives to simply say. “No, I disagree.” But now that they have some leverage in the house and new faces, which we voted into office as a reaction of intolerance for the liberal ideas that have passed through legislation, results are expected and America is impatiently waiting.
One important thing to watch, as soon as Barack and Michelle Obama get back from their over-extravagant trip to India, is if Obama is going to bend on any of the big issues (health care, Bush tax cuts expiring, possibility of more monopoly money stimulus packages, just to name a few) or if he is going to ardently continue to weaken America with his policies, which have been perceived by American voters as ineffective and detrimental to this country based on the results of the November 2 election.
Every once in a while, I like to reiterate on what the ultimate goal of this blog is and what it represents. This blog does not exist to blame all of the problems in America on Barack Obama. They have been building up like a clot in an artery for a very, very long time. I believe Barack Obama’s executive decisions over the past two years have thickened that clot to a diameter that has required a trip to the emergency room and that is what it took to wake America up and to urge Americans to get more involved in politics. Politicians, lobbyists, corporations, unions, banks, everyday people and numerous other entities have all contributed in letting America weaken and veer off of its intended path. But what is important now is that Barack Obama has managed to do everything wrong that he could to fully awaken American voters, who had been sleeping for a very long time. There is plenty of blame to pass around for the problems America is now facing, but for Barack Obama to introduce highly flawed systems like socialized health care and outrageous stimulus packages (based on Keynesian Economics, proven to fail in the past when implemented) at a time like this is hardly productive and extremely debilitating to an economy.
1,894.4 miles to go.
