It might have helped, if president Obama ever ran as much as a lemonade stand. That being said, Bush's unfunded war hasn't helped much either. In any event, the guys who will set the policy(of which Obama has NONE),will be the bankers, multi-national, and globalist..not either party...so, come on, try to get your heads out of the partisan party boxes. These last administrations, are nothing but shills for the decisions that are made, circumnavigating anything remotely resembling the will of the people, for the people, or by the people!
How much more obvious does this have to get, before some of you get the idea to 'hop aboard the clue train'?!?!

Sorry, if that insults your pet party..but it IS the Truth!
