President Obama has brought respect back for the USA.
Even China and Russia are now trying to work with the USA on important issues (like Syria and Iran).
Respect for others always works better than blind war monger arrogance. President Obama is a lot like Reagan in his foreign policies. Bush was a war monger Imperialist.

Noslack, you are simply talking non-sense.
By a quick review of history you can clearly see that what you’re trying to do is to brainwash people into hatred, that’s sick.
And on another note, great artice, very well written.

I hope you are wrong, but I am afraid you are right.

This nation will not survive another four years of milquetoast Obama.

We need a strong leader to fight for THIS country against its enemies, foreign and ESPECIALLY DOMESTIC.

In his first term Obama could have done almost anything he wanted and the American people would have backed him.

But he squandered the opportunity he had been given by the American people, choosing instead to continue the Bush II doctrine of domestic economic policies that have split this country between rich and poor, and the Bush II doctrine of war in the Middle East.

Now we are actually far worse off because of it.

I, like many Americans, see Obama as the lesser of two evils, but this country needs and deserves so much more than that.

I pray we will not be disappointed with his performance in the next four years.

Politicians in the United States of America need to stop kowtowing to the pro-Israeli lobby, and make the United States and the IUnited States people a greater priority than their election (Mrs. Clinton) or reelection. Israel’s interests are not parallel with the United States. Israel lost the moral high ground at Deir Yassin. Backing Israel diminishes U. S. standing, puts the American people at risk, and is morally bankrupt.

Consider the following actions by our “ally” Israel…
• the perfidy of Jonathan Pollard, a spy for Israel
• Israel’s air attack on the U. S. S. Liberty in which U.S. sailors were killed and wounded
• the massacres fomented  and abetted by Ariel Sharon at Sabra and Shatila
• the land grab of  Palestinian territory
• the on-going  colonization of the West Bank with so-called settlements
• war crimes in Gaza – yes,  war crimes
• Palestinian civilians  killed in the Qana bombardment. 

If the foregoing points are unimportant, explain so to the Corries, whose daughter Rachel, a witness for peace and justice was crushed by an IDF bulldozer.
