Obama 2012

Description

Yes I was, and continue to be an Obama supporter. I do not agree with everything this administration has done, I thought that the Affordable Care Act didn't go far enough, that the President's support of No Child Left Behind is idiotic, that the refusal to end the Embargo against Cuba is neolithic, and his desire to not raise taxes on the rich borders on the insane... if I did not understand that the Conservative movement in this country has gone so batshit insane that getting anything beyond the most meager of legislation through is virtually impossible (Obamacare is identical to Romneycare for Christ sake).

I'm also a student and as most of you know this recession has hit us the hardest and the Affordable Care act and the new FAFSA rates really saved my skin. My dad was also diagnosed with diabetes last year and got his hand caught in a table router a few months back and I'm confident that he would have lost his fingers if the new legislation hadn't regulated pre-existing conditions.

The tax cuts for the middle class have also made it easier on my family with me and my sister in college and my dad starting a small business after the company he worked for during the last fifteen years went under.

In short, re-elect President Obama because even with all that he's been unable to do because of Tea Party Fanaticism, he's still done enough for me and my family to still do well during this recession.
