Greetings Friends and Supporters;
As a major financial supporter of this President as well as organizer of such events as the Utah for Obama Convention Party and the Official Election Night Celebration I find it difficult to write such blunt blog regarding the failure of our President to fullfill many of the promises he made during the campaign.
While President Obama has made many positive changes to Washington and the way our government serves her people, he has failed to deliver on a few vital issues.
In recent days, I have noticed the President waiver on his commitment to provide a public option for the American People. We were promised affordable healthcare for all Americans and our President appears to be lacking in his conviction to provide this.
In addition to failing to muster up the audacidy to cash in political capital and challenge the "party of no" the President has failed to address the issue "Don't Ask Don't Tell."
If the President fails to protect the public option and shys away from his responsibility to equality for all Americans I will actively finance, support, and work to elect leaders from a different party. While living to see Barack Obama become President of the United States was my proudest moment, especially after all the hard work, I refuse to stop in my demanding for equality and justice for all Americans. No leader who fails to provide basic rights and freedoms to their people deserves to remain in office.
I demand the change we worked so hard to obtain. We the people of Utah, and of these United States deserve more from our President. If he is unwilling to FIGHT for our rights we must rise up and demand them for ourselves.
Oh Captain My Captain... it is my sincere hope that you will fullfill the cause to which we have empowered you.
Sydney Rhees-
