THE DEMOCRAT CONVENTION

The Democrat Convention had an unusual number of high powered speakers this year led by former President, Bill Clinton, and current Presdent, Barack Obama.  President Obama himself  admited that the progress over the past three and a half years has been slow, But, the spiriling  down turn has been stopped and the economy is now headed in the right direction.  No great promises for a speedy recovery were given, but a pledge to aid the middle class and to give an equal opporunity for all Americans to achieve the American Dream was the message to America.       

History tells us that promises mean very little in a political campaign.  Actually, few specific promises were made except the following:

Democrats will repeal the extra tax benefits for the top 1%; while Repulicans will not.

Republicans will repeal Universal Health Insurance; while Democrats will not.

Republicans will drastically cut aid to Government sponsored programs including Education, Government Services and liberal programs to the poor and disadvantaged ; while Democrats will support these programs.

Republicans will attempt to repeal abortion, gay rights and immigration laws while Democrats will stick with their action on these issues.

The choice is clearly Democrat or Republican, with both candidates an excellent model for their party. 

Romney comes from a wealthy family and has high family morals.  He will promote the polices of the Bush/Cheney Adminisration.

Obama comes form a lower middle class family and has high family morals.  He will promote the policies of the Clinton Administation.

The choice is yours!
