Senator Obama, you will probably be our next President. However your call for Change falls far short of the expectations of the American people. With the BILLIONS of dollars we gave to WallSt.,and the Billions we spend to protect the oil in the Gulf. Our Government could have converted this country into a Solar, Wind powered country in a few short years. Millions of jobs could be created, and tax dollars collected on those salaries. Those same Billions we spent could have given every family in this country Health Care. The tens of Billions we sent to countries like Saudi Arabia, and outher countries that are at best questionable allies, could be spent sending our children to college. We spend Billions in aid to other countries, and have over 3million children go to bed hungry in our own country. Over 60% of the population of this country live at or below the poverty level. We have over 1 million unemployeed 3-4 hundred thousand of them have exhausted their benifits,!!! Where is their bailout?? These are the issues that concern the American people. Maybe you should take some time and speak with Sen. Bernnie Sanders of Vermont. That Man hears us, why don't you??

Take off the gloves and tell us the truth. The people of this country finally deserve the truth. Don’t sugar coat any of it.. You have to get us angry ,and united. You have to promise to give the Government back to the people, and the only way to do that is to tell us the truth about the bribes that our Congress and Senate leaders take from Corporate America, and which ones were involved and the reason the took the bribe. Explain to us why our own Government is allowed to bribe Congress for votes, to the tune of 600million in the last Bill that was past. Tell us why that 700 Billion dollar bail out of Wall St didn't contain anything to bail out the well over a million people that are unemployed in this country. Tell us the truth, that the 700 thousand un-employed people is only counting the people that are collecting benefits! It does not include the people that do not have any benefits, and still can’t find a job. Tell us that 60% of the population live at or below the poverty level. Tell us the truth about how many children (3 million) go to bed hungry every night in this country. Tell us that 70% of our children that graduate from high school cant afford to go to college. Tell us why we can’t pass a Bill banning Lobbyist from Washington, and tell us who voted against it. Tell us how we can have a Space Station in space running on Solar power,for over 10 years But the Big Oil Companies wont let us use solar power in our homes , and has stopped our auto makers from building solar cars. We know it can be done, but the Oil Companies wont be able to control our economy, and our Government can't tax the sun. Kennedy put a man on the moon. Mr. Obama, That 700 Billion we just gave to the thieves that created this mess, and the 10 billion we spend every month on the war, that George Bush lied to get it started, could have been invested into our own economy, that would create jobs....Invest in Small companies in every State, that can hire thousands of people that can convert every home and building in this country into solar and wind energy. Invest in American companies that can produce solar energy vehicles within the next 3 years, Not 20 years from now! Tell us the truth!!! Tell us that George Bush, and Big Oil are killing our children everyday for personal financial gain. Tell us that the Drug Companies charge the American people the highest prices in the world, and lobbied Congress to pass a Bill that wont let my parents buy their medication from Canada at a reduced cost.. Tell us who voted yes!!!! Tell us the truth and get us angry. Putting you in the White House won't change anything!! Congress still decides what gets done. Tell us the truth, take away the power of Corporate America, and give the Government back to We the people. Congress does not have to listen to you, but they have to listen to us. Without us, there is no change. Tell us the truth, tell us the facts, and we will make the change. It's just that simple.
