The article I read was called, Obama's Transition Team Restricts Lobbyists' Role. In the article, it discusses president elect Barack Obama and a statement he made. This article states, "Mr. Obama canceled fireworks on election night in Grant Park in Chicago, telling his advisers that the times were too serious for that type of festivity." This just goes to show how little good he is going to bring to our country. A president needs to be able to connect with the people in order for things to work out. It's a two way road. If the people don't like the laws that he is making, then is it anything more then a dictatorship?
He is a great speaker though. I have heard people say, "Obama is the greatest speaker since Hitler." His words are breathtaking. He can speak and it's as if he' s speaking out to your every need. He has a way of stringing together a line of ordinary words and turning them into a a line that you will remember for the rest of your life. But does anyone see what is wrong with that statement? "Greatest speaker since HITLER. Hitler convinced people, he lied and deceived people. He was a dictator. Obama has spoken great words, but to me they are nothing more than empty promises.
I have no way of knowing these facts so I am not declaring them true, it's only my opinion. But how can he do the things he promises. Sure, Bush sent us into bad economic times. But Obama will only make them worse. He wants to raise taxes for the rich, but the rich are the ones that keep our sad economy going. Its holding on by a thread because the rich are still circulating money. But if the rich have no money then what money is left to circulate? I
n my history class I learned about an economic time like this and the president at the time cut taxes for the rich. He cut them because of the trickle down affect. By nature of the trickle down affect, the rich would spend a lot of money if they had a lot; therefore, the middle class would make the money from working at the places were they spent their money. Then, they would have more money and when you have more money, its only human nature to spend it. Hence, they would spend it at places where the lower class people work and then the lower class people would have money. So, if money is taken from the rich, it will be the trickle down affect in a negative way. Everyone would make less money, and there wouldn't be any money circulating. Can America really handle four more years of this? No, four more years of an economy WORSE then this?
Not just anyone can create an amazing speech and have such a strong voice, but, almost anyone-can lie.
