Voting For President From Florida: What Is In It For Me?

Today In received a note from one of my Hub buddies suggesting a modification to my hubs. I was eager to hear her advice as I really would like to improve my hubs. So I read from the learning center the article she suggested which was full of wonderful advice and then I tried to access wikimedia common. The moment I did I received pop up advertisements from political parties and could not access the services my friend suggested.

It reminded me of when Barack Obama ran for president and I had pop up ads all over my computer then as well. One said, “Vote for Barack” and get a free big screen television. Another one was “Vote for Barack” and get a free laptop. Today’s wasn’t for a specific candidate but offered an Ipad2. I want everyone to know I still have a small screen television and there is not a new laptop in my home. So I am now iving with the broken promises of Barack Obama. Although I have had many Democrats come to visit me and tell me Obama is going to change? I don’t argue I listen respectfully because they believe.

I am a person who has cared for my son without the benefit of services and with welfare and the social security administration threatening to rip the funding out from underneath my son who is both medical fragile and had autism. I took care of my Mother while she was dying for two years which Barack Obama claimed his mother died of Colo-rectal cancer as well and I didn’t have the benefit of one day of respite. If anything healthcare has gotten worse and not better with the electronic prescription service. When I go to the doctor I have to ask for the prescription to be written out because they so often get lost in cyber world.

Barack Obama has no intention of changing. I don’t have my big screen television, my laptop or my Ipad2. He has given more to Pakistan than he has to Americans and then he has Debbie Wasserman Schultz attacking Mitt Romney while she has homeless people with disabled children sleeping in freezing temperatures in her district. What has Barack Obama done for me? The answer is simple…absolutely nothing.

But that can be said about Mitt Romney as well. And it is time Washington DC hears it first and foremost. Maybe only the 15 can occupy the White House but until the serve the 99% it will be a revolving door.

And that is what this country is face with Obama versus Romney the Harvard graduates. Both men have not taken on the common issues of the people but have lived these extraordinarily privileged lives in which their feet have never had to touch the ground.

I even hear from Ron Paul who would like me to vote for him. I think libertarians only liberate children to war so old men can get rich from young men/women dying.

So what choice is there for a parent of a child with medical complexities and autism? Who should they vote for president in the state of Florida? I don’t think the disabled or the veterans for that matter have a dog in this race. It is the 1% running against the 1%. And if we have learned anything from George Bush and Barack Obama is that Harvard graduates love to run up national debt no matter which party they are from as both George Bush and Barack Obama have both done it and substantively besides their religions and race they have had the exact same policy in America. Keep shoveling cash into the wealthy people’s pockets and steal from the poor. It so both despicable and embarrassing that in the year 2012 that our government lacks the sophistication to be able to embrace all of the people in the country instead of making the very few extraordinarily wealthy. It is not class warfare but a complete and total failure of government. The only way government can make jobs is by hiring more people and they are hiring people from overseas and leaving Americans unemployed.

Washington, DC lives well at the expense of everyone in America as well as New York and it is time their reign ends. I am voting in the primary but I don’t even know if I will vote in the general election as I am fed up with this government entirely.

The only thing that has changed in this country in the last four years is that I have less money, healthcare, security and opportunity and all the resources of my country are being given away to other countries.

I remember Barack Obama said Americans were soft, weak and they need to toughen up. Yeah, I would like to see Barack Obama take care of a child with Autism for one day and then come back and lecture anyone on the merits of being weak and soft. Someone has told me he is interested in helping children with Autism now some four years into his presidency. Really? Because I believe he promised me a big screen television, a new laptop and an Ipad2 along with gay people having the right to vote and jobs and so much more.

I haven’t heard Mitt Romney speak of Autism at all but again I don’t watch television. I have caught the debates but only to present them here on hubpages as I assume many of you don’t watch television either.

This election year I want to know what is in it for me. I have done and done and done for my country and far more importantly I have done without for my country and sacrificed for the last decade while all the monies from the middle eastern war were shipped off to South Korea. I didn’t get to be a billion dollar CEO banker like all of Obama and Romney’s friends. So unless there is a candidate that can tell me what is in it for me they can assume they will not be receiving my vote. I don’t think there is a choice besides Harvard and Harvard anyways.

Things get so ugly in Florida for votes I usually have to shut my telephone off and shut off my computer. I hope the candidates will not prove to be such a nuisance this year.

So what is in it for me? Becuase if either party wants ,my vote this year they are going to have to earn it.

Barack Obama on Big Oil. Have you seen the prices at the pump?

Barack On Gay Marriage. Hollywood is obviously more worried about having to pay Taxes under Romney then the rights of LGBT.

Barack On GITMO

Change I Believe In.

I believe America has changed and in such rapid and drastic ways that the government can't keep up with the people including Hollywood which is a bit of an odd duck in this entire process. And no matter who lives at 1600 Pennsylvannia Anevue that this country will never trust another politcian in office because all their loyalty and faith in their leaders has been rewarded with complete contempt for people living outside the beltway.

The Change I Believe In Is in You and Me and not coming from anyone involved in leadership as they all have failed us continually and habitually. I now know givernment can't do anything for me but only to me. I no longer consent to this form of tyranny.
