People really need to buy a clue.

The last comment in this article stated something about Obama not knowing how many states there are and how many letters are in the word "JOBS".  How does that diminish his ability to be president compared to the idiot you've had in power for eight years that could not deliver bottled water to hurricane victims??

America needs to take a good long look at itself and really ask if they are as good as they think they are or any where near as they can be.  My answer, as a supportive cousin up north, is a resounding no.  You have many fine examples of people there; I have family and friends in the US and have many times met many strangers that were funny, kind, helpful and intelligent.  these people do not tend to seek out the spotlight though so you do not usually see them, hear them or read about them.

No, what we usually get the pleasure of being exposed to are the degenerates in positions of wealth and power or the uneducated or just plain stupid twits on the street that think so very high of their ignorant selves.  America should be the shining beacon that all other countries want to aspire to be.  It has been greatly tarnished in the last while and while fixing your internal problems, you need to fix that world view as well.  I will not go into whether I see the wars as good or bad but I will say choose your allies more carefully, make your decisions more wisely and more openly in a cooperative effort with NATO and once a decision has been made, just do the damn job!

Anyhow, there will be a very long road for Obama as he tries to get things done while he is in power.  He will need to do enough in the early going for people to weight his worth on the merits of his ideas and not fall back on the oh so easy and oh so ripe position of him being an unprepared black man in the most powerful position in the world.  The work has only just begun and I hope he gets the chance to prove he is up to the task.  America, we will be watching.  Good luck.

Peace.
