http://my.barackobama.com/page/community/blog_rss/luannb/html Hi everyone! I am new to this, but I feel this election is the most important one of my lifetime. I have read Barack's Book and listen to as many of his speeches as possible and have watched him in each debate. I like the way he handles himself, even in tough situations. He is a true American, a wonderful dad, a loving huaband and someone who wants to unite our country. I have never personally helped in a campaign, but I we have so much to lose in this one. I can not set on the sidelines and do nothing and let another Republican be elected to lead us down the same path George Bush has. We need a change, now is the time and Barack OBama gives me hope and inspires me and I believe he will do his very best to start to undo all of the harm that the Bush administration has caused this country. <p>It has been some time now since I have written in my blog. Since I last wrote, canidate Obama has become President Obama. I eagerly watched as he took the oath of office, surrounded by his beautiful wife Michelle and their two adorable girls. I am also very glad that he chose Joe Biden to be his Vice President.</p><p>Our country is so lucky to have these to men of such integrity and intelligence running our country. We have suffered greatly the last eight years and it is so refreshing to see people who will not only honor the Constitution but listen, ask questions and try to work with the people across the aisle.</p><p>I do not envy President Obama for the huge task that he has just taken on. Our country has so many problems to fix or change. Yet, if there is any one man who is up to the task, I would put my money on President Obama.</p><p>He has the perfect temperment and personality to enter into this arena, which some days looks like the the olden days of the Gladiators! They need someone with a cool head to oversee and meet with the different groups.</p><p>I know our financial system and economy are in shambles but I do believe that a change in our Nation's health care system might help everyone and save billions of dollars in the long run. Our Congressmen and women along with our Senators enjoy having health care coverage&nbsp;that is paid for and ran but our Government. For any of them to question or say it does not work is sheer hypocrisy.</p><p>If the Government insurance is good enough and works well enough for them then there is absolutely no reason that it would not work for everyone. Yes, it may cost us at first but considering how many people are without insurance or fear loosing their job and their insurance I feel we have no choice but to fix health care now. </p><p>Like President Obama said the other day on his newscast, &quot;If not now, then when?&quot; He pointed out that each of the past administraitons had always faced some crisis or some reason as to why to wait. The other side will always find some excuse to stop us from moving towards a coverage that will work for everyone.</p><p>No longer&nbsp; can we wait and I believe that if there was ever a President to lead us to a health care solution, the time is now and President Obama is the man.</p><p>As someone who has Federal Helath Care, I consider myself one of the &quot;lucky ones&quot; Of course I pay a high premium as an X spouse, but never the less, I have it. Each year they have open season and during that time I get the opportunity to view numerous plans and pick the one that I can afford and that I feel will meet my health needs.</p><p>I can't see why the government could not offer such a plan to everyone, which would bring everyon's premium down. I also think that there is something to be said about having some kind of an insurance for everyone that is similar to Medicare. It only makes sense to me that the more people who particiapte in a plan the cheaper the rpremiums will be for everyone.</p><p>I am asking for each of you to please sontact your own State representatives and ask them to work with President Obama and get something done. We can no longer afford to set idley by and watch more and more people slip into the uninsured abyss which in the long run is costing all of the taxpayers.</p><p>Please tell your Congressmen that if Government insurance is good enough and works for them that it is our right as citizens of this country to be given the same opportunity. I believe as part of their retirement they can keep their insurance, payed for by &quot;We the People&quot;. I am tired of hearing one after another Republican get on television or radio and talk about socialized medicine when they themselves have it.</p> http://my.barackobama.com/page/community/post/luannb/gGxNSq http://my.barackobama.com/page/community/post/luannb/gGxNSq/commentary#comments Tue, 10 Mar 2009 13:12:41 EDT http://my.barackobama.com/page/community/post/luannb/gGxNSq LuAnn in Indiana http://my.barackobama.com/page/community/profile_picture/4f0354f177ad699d44_vnm6b8gl3.jpg LuAnn in Indiana 5 http://my.barackobama.com/page/community/comment_rss/gGxNSq/ <a href="http://abcnews.go.com/Video/playerIndex?id=5989582" target="_blank" title="http://abcnews.go.com/Video/playerIndex?id=5989582"><strong>http://abcnews.go.com/Video/playerIndex?id=5989582</strong></a> <blockquote><p><strong>This video is from Barack and explains the Bill Ayers issue.

This has been building for some time. Those of us who have criticized the candidate--and especially those of us who enjoyed good relations with McCain in the past--have been subject to off-the-record browbeating and attempted bullying all year. But things have gotten much worse in recent days: there was McCain's rude, bizarre <a href="http://www.time.com/time/politics/article/0,8599,1836909,00.html" title="http://www.time.com/time/politics/article/0,8599,1836909,00.html">interview</a> with Time Magazine last week. Yesterday, McCain refused to an interview with Larry King, for God's sake, because Campbell Brown had been caught in the commission of <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UYYiw_y2qDI" title="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UYYiw_y2qDI">journalism</a> on CNN the night before, asking McCain spokesman Tucker Bounds what decisions Sarah Palin had made as commander-in-chief of the Alaska national guard. (There was an answer that the unprepared Bounds didn't have: she had deployed them to fight fires.)</strong><strong>So what's going on here? Two things. McCain is just plain angry at us. By the evidence presented in the utterly revealing Time interview, he's ballistic. This is a politician who needs to see himself as the man on the white horse, boldly traversing a muddy field...any intimations that he's gotten muddied in the process, or has decided to throw mud, are intolerable. </strong><strong>The second thing is more insidious: Steve Schmidt has decided, for tactical reasons, to slime the press. He wants the public to believe that there is an unfair--sexist (you gotta love it)--personal assault going on against Palin and her family. This is a smokescreen, intended to divert attention from the very real and responsible vetting that is taking place in the media--about the substance of Palin's record as mayor and governor. Sure, there are a few outliers--and the tabloid press--who have fixed on baby stories. That was inevitable....the flip side of the personal stories that the McCain team thought would work to their advantage--Palin's moose-hunting and wolf-shooting, and her admirable decision to have a Down Syndrome baby. And yes, when we all fix on the same story, whether it's a hurricane or a little-known politician, a zoo ensues. But the media </strong><strong>coverage of the Palin story has been well within the bounds of responsibility. Schmidt is trying to make it seem otherwise, a desperate tactic. </strong><strong>There is a tendency in the media to kick ourselves, cringe and withdraw, when we are criticized.

Sure, there are a few outliers--and the tabloid press--who have fixed on baby stories.

Sure, there are a few outliers--and the tabloid press--who have fixed on baby stories.
