When presidential candidates answer questions from children about why they want the job, most will give an answer that uplifts the child and the candidate. Not Barack Obama. At a campaign stop in Elkhart, Indiana, a seven-year-old girl asked the Democrat why he wants to be President — and he told her that America has gone downhill:
“America is …, uh, is no longer, uh … what it could be, what it once was. And I say to myself, I don’t want that future for my children

Where was his teleprompter?
So America is no longer what it could be what it once was.
If we can pick a day to go back to, I suggest 1913 before the Fed and the great socialistic movement of the 1930's. Is that where BHO wants to go back to?
A blackman, saying this country is not great. A blackman who rose up from nothing, went to harvard, became a senator and is now poised to become president, and this country sucks. Could it be better, yes, it could always be better. Yet we maintain one of the highest standards of living in the world. food is plentiful as is shelter and convinences. Even the poor enjoy airconditioning, heat, tv, cable, cigarettes and cell phones, yet this is a bad place. This guy has never said a good word about a country that has allowed his so much opportunity.
