Santorum Answers Questions at Town Hall Teleconference

I recently attended a live, one hour political telethon during which Rick Santorum answered questions. The political teleconference focused on the 2012 presidential election, and it was held from 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Pacific Time on Thursday, January 5, 2012. The Presidential Series National Tele-Town Hall was sponsored by the Faith and Freedom Coalition, and my attendance was the result of an accepted invitation from a Facebook group I belong to called Conservative Republican Women.

Rick Santorum takes the time to answer questions during a hectic day in New Hampshire

Rick Santorum was late for the meeting because over 1,000 voters attended his New Hampshire rally that same day, and the senator stayed on a bit to answer questions before joining in on the teleconference. Those who attended the conference were instructed to press the star key, followed by the number three, on their telephones if they wanted to ask any questions. While waiting for Rick Santorum to join the group of several thousand interested individuals, a campaign representative politely answered some of the questions addressed to the Santorum campaign. Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum then joined the teleconference and replied to questions posed by various attendants.

Rick Santorum wrote the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban bill

The fact that Rick Santorum authored the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban bill, which was signed by President George W. Bush, was mentioned by one of the sponsors of the teleconference. This bill was designed to ban partial birth abortions. This Republican presidential candidate previously served in the House of Representatives and was the Senate Republican Conference Chairman. He also authored a bestselling book entitled It Takes a Family. Rick Santorum is the proud father of seven children, so this is a man who really does care about families and family values. His answers to questions were truthful, humble, yet filled with confidence. At the close of the Presidential Series National Tele-Town Hall, he asked those attending the conference to pray for him, his wife Karen and his family. He also personally invited voters who wish to offer him assistance during his presidential campaign to visit his personal website.

Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum practically tied the Iowa Republican Caucus on January 3, 2012, with Mitt Romney receiving receiving 24.6 percent of the vote and Rick Santorum receiving 24.5 percent. Mitt Romney is also a family man who is married to Ann, his high school sweetheart, and they are the proud parents of five sons and the grandparents of ten grandchildren. Both Romney and Santorum appear to have integrity, sound values and excellent Republican tenets by which they live their lives. Either one of these candidates far surpasses any requirements for a U.S. President who truly loves the United States of America.

Mitt Romney To Reveal Jobs Plan Containing 59 Ideas

Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney, who is also the former Governor of Massachusetts, has 59 definite ideas he wants to introduce to get the American economy rolling again, and Mitt Romney plans carrying out 10 of these proposals in a concrete way as soon as he is elected. Mitt Romney believes that entrepreneurs and investors, rather than the United States government, need to create more jobs to stimulate the economy.

In reference to President Barack Obama's views on the betterment of the economic crisis in America, Mitt Romney said the following: "The contrast between what the Obama administration has done and what I would do as president could not be starker."

Mitt Romney plans to reveal his entire jobs plan to help the United States economy on Tuesday, September 5, 2011, in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Romney Still Wins Hearts of NH Voters in NH GOP Primary

Mitt Romney is the top Republican presidential contender in the New Hampshire primary. Recent survey results conducted by New Hampshire Magellan Data and Mapping Strategies on Tuesday, August 15th, and Wednesday, August 16th, indicate that Mitt Romney is even a good deal ahead of Rick Perry.

According to the Magellan survey, Mitt Romney received favorable opinions equaling 66 percent, Paul Ryan received favorable opinions of 51 percent and Ron Paul  only received favorable opinions equaling 39 percent.

The voters were asked who they would vote for if the 2012 Republican Presidential primary election were to take place now,  and Mitt Romney received 36 percent of the potential votes, in comparison to Rick Perry's 18 percent. All of the other Republican presidential hopefuls received even less potential votes, with Ron Paul maxing out at 14 percent and Michele Bachmann at only 10 percent.

The New Hampshire voters were also asked if they were familiar with the results of the Ames Straw Poll in Iowa this past weekend, and 86 percent indicated that they were familiar with the poll. Then they were asked what kind of impact the Ames Straw Poll had on their vote for a particular Republican presidential candidate, and only four percent of the New Hampshire folks answered, "a lot."

Perhaps many Republican voters are going to learn their lessons about Mormon bias in the 2008 presidential election. Even though there were top Republican conservative Christians that endorsed Mitt Romney in the 2008 election, the general bias against Mormons, or Latter-Day Saints, on the part of many Christian voters was largely responsible for the fact that former Governor of Massachusetts Mitt Romney, a Latter-Day Saint, never had a chance to actually run against Barack Obama. 

It needs mentioning, though, that several GOP members are hoping for Paul Ryan's entrance into the presidential race, but Paul Ryan has not yet announced whether he intends to run for U.S. President in the 2012 election. Paul Ryan's decision, if it is a yes, is bound to create an interesting twist to the 2012 presidential election plot, at least as far as Republicans are concerned.

Is Paul Ryan the Next Mr. President in 2012?

The 2012 Republican presidential primary race draws closer, and the
question as to whether Paul Ryan is the Republican presidential
candidate headed for the White House arises. Is Paul Ryan the new Ronald
Reagan? Is Paul Ryan the Republican who can save America's economic
crisis with his innovative Ryanomics that apply to today's economic
budget woes?

There are those in the GOP who want the
economic genius, Wisconsin Republican congressman Paul Ryan, to run for
president, including Indiana governor Mitch Daniels, who stated during a
telephone interview Wednesday
morning, "If there were a Paul Ryan fan club, I'd be a national
officer." Jeb Bush, the 43rd governor of Florida, and the younger
brother of former U.S. President George W. Bush, also believes in Paul
Ryan's abilities. Jeb Bush stated that, "Paul Ryan would be a formidable candidate."

Republicans need to make sure the right person is in the race if America
is to receive relief from President Barack Obama's highly questionable
leadership skills. Paul Ryan has not made any official announcements to
date that he intends to run for president in 2012, but Wisconsin
Republican congressman Paul Ryan seems to have the vision and clarity
that might qualify him as a person who is capable of solving the current
economic crisis in America.

Legalization Of Marijuana Most Popular Question for Obama

On "Your Interview With The President," the YouTube site that has been set up for a live stream of President Barack Obama's 2011 State of the Union Address plus questions posed to Mr. Obama by YouTube participants, the number one question appears to be regarding the legalization and decriminalization of marijuana by the federal government. I doubt very much if President Barack Obama, as liberal as he is, would stoop so low on the liberal ladder as to legalize marijuana.

It is a bit disturbing that the most popular question on the YouTube site, "Your Interview With The President" is focused on the issue of legalizing marijuana, rather than on the more pressing issues of the day, such as the loss, and lack, of jobs, the economy, and America's national security. I trust and hope that YouTube is not an indication of the views of most Americans. I personally voted, along with the majority of Californians, against the legalization of marijuana when it appeared on the 2010 ballot. Even though the crime factor is a serious issue when it comes to street drugs, legalizing marijuana is not the answer.

JFK/Kennedy Assassination Mourned by Americans

Today, November 22, 2010, marks the 47th anniversary of President John ("Jack") Fitzgerald Kennedy's (JFK's) assassination. President John F. Kennedy was assassinated on November 22, 1963. JFK was the 35th President of the United States of America. President John Fitzgerald Kennedy's untimely and unexpected death was a huge shock to all Americans, who deeply mourned his loss.

The beloved American President John F. ("Jack") Kennedy was assassinated on the November 22, 1963, at the young age of 46. The young and handsome President John F. Kennedy, with his cultured and beautiful wife, First Lady Jacqueline ("Jackie") Bouvier Kennedy, are commonly called the rulers of Camelot, because the American public idolized them as if they were a king and queen of a kingdom. The shock of President John F. Kennedy's unexpected and untimely death was almost too much for many Americans to bear.

Although President John F. Kennedy was officially a Democrat, there are some conservatives today who do not believe that President John F. Kennedy was a true liberal. The reason for this belief is due to the fact that the basic tenets of the Democratic party have become a great deal more liberal since the era in which John F. Kennedy was the U.S. President.

President John F. Kennedy's assassination is cloaked with various conspiracy theories. Did Lee Harvey Oswald really assassinate President John Fitzgerald Kennedy, or was Kennedy's death the result of some strange, secret plot? If you want to know the truth about JFK's assassination, check out The Kennedy Assassination by John McAdams. John McAdams debunks the conspiracy theories, myths and hoaxes surrounding the President John F. Kennedy's untimely death by assassination.

Veterans Day: A History Of Military Honor

The history of Veterans Day is clearly explained in this publication. Veterans Day is an annual Federal Holiday, set aside to honor United States military veterans. Veterans Day is an annual Federal Holiday that is celebrated in America every year on November 11, for the sole purpose of honoring and celebrating United States military veterans who are alive, and also United States military veterans who have died.

Veterans Day is a day when Americans can show their patriotic love for America in the simple gesture of displaying American flags on their front lawns for all people to see. How is Veterans Day different from Memorial Day? According to the Department of Veterans Affairs, many Americans are confused about the meaning of these two national holidays. Also, there are Americans who do not know the reason why Veterans Day is celebrated on November 11th every year. In other words, many Americans are not familiar with the history of Veterans Day.

Here is a little bit of history about Veterans Day, in the hopes that the reasons for celebrating these two national United States annual holidays, Veterans Day, and Memorial Day, will be clearly understood:

Veterans Day was previously known as Armistice Day. The legal holiday known as Armistice Day was created to celebrate the end of World War I.  World War I ended on November 11, 1918. The Act of 1938 was passed on November 11, 1938. Armistice Day was "'dedicated to the cause of world peace and to be hereafter celebrated and known as 'Armistice Day.'" 1 Armistice Day paid tribute to veterans of World War I.

After the end of World War II and the Korean War, various Veterans organizations asked the 83rd U.S. Congress to amend the Act of 1938, by substituting the word "Veterans" for the word "Armistice." This legislation was approved on June 1, 1954. The original date of Armistice Day, November 11, was kept, and, to this day, Veterans Day, which is an annual holiday celebrated every year on November 11, is the day Americans take the time to remember and honor all American Veterans who served in any war.

Memorial Day honors servicemembers who died in service to their country or as a result of injuries incurred during battle. Deceased veterans are also remembered on Veterans Day but the day is set aside to thank and honor living veterans who served honorably in the military - in wartime or peacetime.

Republican President Dwight D. Eisenhower’s letter to Harvey V. Higley, Administrator of Veterans' Affairs, designating him Chairman, Veterans Day National Committee:

The White House Office

October 8, 1954

Dear Mr. Higley:

I have today signed a proclamation calling upon all of our citizens to observe Thursday, November 11, 1954 as Veterans Day. It is my earnest hope that all veterans, their organizations, and the entire citizenry will join hands to insure proper and widespread observance of this day. With the thought that it will be most helpful to coordinate the planning, I am suggesting the formation of a Veterans Day National Committee. In view of your great personal interest as well as your official responsibilities, I have designated you to serve as Chairman. You may include in the Committee membership such other persons as you desire to select and I am requesting the heads of all departments and agencies of the Executive branch to assist the Committee in its work in every way possible.

I have every confidence that our Nation will respond wholeheartedly in the appropriate observance of Veterans Day, 1954.

Sincerely,

DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER  1
What is the difference between Veterans Day and Memorial Day?

Memorial Day remembers and honors military members who have died in service to America, or died due to war injuries. Although military members who have died in service to America are also honored on Veterans Day, the main purpose of Veterans Day is to honor and thank military veterans who are still living. Veterans Day also honors all military veterans who served America in the military, whether in times of war or in times of peace.

Veterans Day is not just an annual Federal Holiday in which some people receive a day off from their jobs. Veterans Day, formerly known as Armistice Day, has a purpose. Please remember to take a few moments during the day to remember those brave military veterans who willingly sacrifice their lives in order to protect Americans and America. Veterans Day is a day to wave your American flags and show your patriotism.

Abraham Lincoln's Republican Tenets Are Still True Today

Do the Republican tenets held by President Abraham Lincoln still stand true today? Republicans have always taken a stand against racism, slavery, high taxes, and abusive governmental power. Republicans have always fought for the rights of the individual. The Republican Party or GOP today is still in harmony with Abraham Lincoln's basic Republican principles. Abe Lincoln was a Republican, not a Democrat. Abe Lincoln was a political conservative, not a leftist liberal.

It is important to remember the fact that Abe Lincoln was a Republican, because people need to know, and fully understand, that it is not Democrats but Republicans, as representatives of the Republican Party, who have always been the people in government who especially opposed and abhorred liberal thought regarding the acceptance of slavery, the raising of personal income taxes, and the idea of government taking care of people instead of people governing themselves and their own lives. Yes, President Abraham Lincoln's Republican tenets really are still true today.

Bush on Ted Stevens: " Ted served our country with great distinction."

President George W. Bush issued a Facebook status message on his Facebook wall today regarding the death of Alaska Senator Ted Stevens, and others, in Monday's tragic Alaskan airplane crash. President Bush said that "Ted served our country with great distinction." President Bush also said that he and former First Lady Laura Bush are praying for, and send their condolences to, the survivors' families. 


Ted Stevens was 86 years old. Ironically, Stevens was a survivor of an airplane crash that occurred in 1978. Ted Stevens was also a World War II pilot who had received military decorations. Ted Stevens served the United States as a Republican Senator for 40 years.


Conservative Wordsmith ™ Susan Baldwin  thanks former President George W. Bush and former First Lady Laura Bush for their presence on Facebook, and joins George and Laura Bush in their prayers.

The Declaration of Independence: Self-Evident Truths for Americans

What is the real meaning of the Fourth of July? What are the "self-evident truths" contained within the words of The Declaration of Independence? What were the names of the erudite men who signed The Declaration of Independence? Is the pursuit of Happiness important? Does every human being have unalienable Rights? If so, what are they?

What does The Declaration of Independence really mean to an American? What did Congress have in mind? Why was writing The Declaration of Independence so important to Thomas Jefferson? The Declaration of Independence is one of the most important political and historical documents in American History. Do you know what The Declaration of Independence means to Americans?

Read the original text of The Declaration of Independence and learn more about what it means to be an American:

The Declaration of Independence: A Transcription

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
IN CONGRESS, July 4, 1776.

The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America,

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.--Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.

He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.
He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.
He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only.
He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures.
He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people.
He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected; whereby the Legislative powers, incapable of Annihilation, have returned to the People at large for their exercise; the State remaining in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within.
He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of Lands.
He has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary powers.
He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries.
He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.
He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.
He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power.
He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:
For Quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:
For protecting them, by a mock Trial, from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:
For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:
For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:
For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury:
For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences
For abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring Province, establishing therein an Arbitrary government, and enlarging its Boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these Colonies:
For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:
For suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.
He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us.
He has plundered our seas, ravaged our Coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people.
He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty & perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation.
He has constrained our fellow Citizens taken Captive on the high Seas to bear Arms against their Country, to become the executioners of their friends and Brethren, or to fall themselves by their Hands.
He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages, whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions.
In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A Prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.
Nor have We been wanting in attentions to our Brittish brethren. We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which, would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.
We, therefore, the Representatives of the united States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States; that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as Free and Independent States, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do. And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.

George W. Bush On Facebook -- Over 140,000 Fans On Day 9

I joined President George W. Bush's Facebook page earlier today. President Bush has already received thousands of positive comments since he first joined Facebook on June 2, and his Facebook page has grown to over 140,000 Facebook fans in just a little over one week.

President Bush is offering interesting posts on his Facebook wall, and I am looking forward to visiting George W. Bush's official Facebook page often. I also plan on sharing some of President Bush's posts on my Facebook wall from time to time, as he is being gracious enough to allow the "sharing" option on his Facebook wall.

I already shared some of President George W. Bush's offerings on my Facebook wall earlier today, such as information about First Lady Laura Bush's best-selling memoir, "Spoken from the Heart," the #1 bestseller on the "New York Times" Bestseller List for three weeks in a row; and a link to a short video of Presidents Bush's Inaugural Address [HD].

Rush Limbaugh Married Descendant of President John Adams

Rush Limbaugh married Kathryn Rogers, a direct descendant of President John Adams, on Saturday, June 5. The wedding ceremony and reception took place in Palm Beach. Sir Elton John provided the musical entertainment to the tune of $1 million, courtesy of Rush Limbaugh. Sir Elton John performing at Rush Limbaugh's wedding is strange enough, but the fact that Rush Limbaugh managed to find a wife who is so strongly rooted in American History is almost stranger than fiction.

According to a recent Palm Beach Post article, Kathryn Rogers, Rush Limbaugh's new wife, is a direct descendant of American Founding Father John Adams. John Adams was the first Vice President (1789-1797) of the United States, and the Second President (1797-1801), of the United States.

So I suppose one could say that conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh is now an indirect descendant of John Adams. I think John Adams would have been proud to have Rush Limbaugh as part of his family. Rush Limbaugh and Kathryn Rogers might just be a match made in political heaven. It isn't every day that a famous conservative talk show hosts married a "daughter" of one of America's Founding Fathers.

Rush Limbaugh Marries Kathryn Rogers, Starring Sir Elton John

Conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh married Kathryn Rogers today. According to an article posted on NYDailyNews.com, British superstar and composer Sir Elton John performed at Rush Limbaugh's wedding reception. The wedding was an extravagant Palm Beach Hawaiian-themed ceremony and reception.

In case you're wondering why Sir Elton John, an openly Gay man who, earlier this year announced that Jesus Christ was a "super-intelligent gay man," (yes, it's hard to believe, but this is what Sir Elton John said) agreed to perform at ultra-conservative Rush Limbaugh's wedding reception, there is one excellent reason. According to the New York Daily News article, Sir Elton John will receive $1 million for his performance at Rush Limbaugh's wedding reception.

As far as Rush Limbaugh is concerned, it seems to me that Rush Limbaugh must have the ability to separate the artist from the man. Rush Limbaugh obviously didn't allow his conservative viewpoints to get in the way when it involved having a talented person like Sir Elton John perform at his wedding reception. This only proves that Rush Limbaugh, contrary to what liberals think, is more than capable of being open-minded and nonjudgemental.

According to a recent Palm Beach Post article, Rush Limbaugh's new bride, Kathryn Rogers, is a direct descendant of American Founding Father John Adams. John Adams was the first Vice President (1789-1797), and the Second President (1797-1801), of the United States.

Congratulations, Rush Limbaugh. I hope you and your new wife Kathryn will be very happy.

Strongly Approve: 24%
Strongly Disapprove: 44%
Presidential Approval Index rating: -20%
Overall, 42% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the president's performance. That is the lowest level of approval yet measured for this president. Fifty-six percent (56%) now disapprove of his performance. 1
1 Daily Presidential Tracking Poll
Tuesday, May 25, 2010

Author's Commentary: Obama's popularity has been going down in the Rasmussen Reports Daily Presidential Tracking Polls for quite awhile now. It would seem that there are plenty of voters in America who simply can no longer stomach Obama's liberal agenda to bring America into alignment with the European Union , the United Nations, and socialism.

At least President George W. Bush had the courage to stand against the opinions of the mighty United Nations. Bush did not allow the UN to rule over America, and that is how it should be.

Obama Presses Senate To Pass Financial Reform

Obama is urging the United States Senate to pass the Financial Reform Bill quickly. "In his weekly address Saturday, he characterized the bill as representing 'the strongest consumer financial protections in history.' Mr. Obama says the legislation will stop predatory business practices and make sure both large and small banks are subject to tough oversight." {1}


On the other hand, Republican Congressman Chris Lee "urged Mr. Obama to, in Lee's words, 'really listen' to what Americans are saying about the economy."


{1} Obama Urges US Senate To Pass Financial Reform 


Is President Obama, possibly the most liberal U.S. President in the History of America, really listening to what Americans are saying about the economy? Is Obama really listening to what Americans are saying about anything going on in America? Does Obama even have a clue about what Americans think? Most importantly, does Obama care about America and Americans, or does Obama simply intend to accomplish everything he can to insure that America will be a socialist country before his presidential term is over.

Obama Checked "Afro-American" On Census; Neglected To Mention "Irish"

Obama identified himself as being Afro-American on his 2010 Census form. President Barack Obama checked the "black or Afro-American" box on the 2010 Census form. Obama could have checked the "white" box or "some other race" box. Or Barack Obama could have checked both the "white" and  "black or Afro-American" boxes, due to the fact that his father was black and his mother white.

The question is: Why did Barack Obama identify himself as being exclusively "black or Afro-American" on the 2010 Census? Technically, Barack Obama is "biracial," meaning two races, and not exclusively one race. There were 784,764 biracial American residents who checked both the "white" and "black or Afro-American" boxes on the 2010 census form. "This is only the second census to allow people to identify themselves by more than one race. About 7 million people, or 2.4 percent of the U.S. population, chose that option in 2000." 1

Obama obviously wants future historians to describe him in history books as having been the first "black or Afro-American" U.S. President. But this is a half-truth. How is President Barack Obama's decision to not declare himself as being "biracial" fair to a possible future "black or Afro-American" U.S. President who might not happen to be biracial?

This hypothetical future Afro-American U.S. President would go down in history books as having been the second Afro-American U.S. President, instead of the first Afro-American U.S. President. To complicate this matter even further, what if this hypothetical future Afro-American U.S. President turns out to be a conservative Republican instead of a liberal Democrat?

To make things less complicated, Barack Obama could have just declared himself as being "Irish" on his 2010 Census form. *See My Related Post below.

Obama Takes A Back Seat To Bush In Recent Poll


President George W. Bush (Republican) is now more popular than President Barack Obama (Democrat).

The March 19, 2010 Rasmussen Reports Daily Presidential Tracking Poll indicates the following:

1. Strongly Approve: 23%

2. Strongly Disapprove: 44%

This equals a result of -21%.

from: Daily Presidential Tracking Poll

Conservative Wordsmith Commentary:

Yes, -21% is President Barack Obama's Presidential Approval Index on Friday, March 19, 2010.This Rasmussen poll news is nothing new. In Obama's Poll Numbers Are Falling to Earth, written by By Douglas E. Schoen and Scott Rasmussen, and published in the Wall Street Journal on March 13, 2009, (a little over 1 year ago), the writers stated that, according to the poll data on that date, "Mr. Obama's approval rating is dropping and is below where George W. Bush was in an analogous period in 2001."

Obama's Presidential Approval Index rating on March 13, 2009 was 6%.
