It is getting really close to election day and things are getting heated up.   Let’s talk about some quotes that I have heard from Obama supporters since this election has started.  I have comprised a list of talking points from Obama supporters below.  I gave this list to some of my Obamamaniac friends (yes I have friends that support him). They all stated that these are the changes we need and it is why they support him.

Let’s take a look at these points.

1.         End the wars in Iraq. Bring all the troops home now.
2.         International friendship and solidarity, not imperialist domination.

3.         Full employment—decent jobs for all. Job training for youth & the unemployed.
4.         Free, quality healthcare for all.
5.         Expand and guarantee social security for all retired workers, disabled and unemployed.      
6.         Stop union-busting, expand the right to organize, including card-check recognition.
7.         Free, high quality education from pre-school through college.
8.         Housing is a right—End foreclosures and evictions.
9.         Stop environmental destruction—Make the polluters pay.
10.        Fight racism and the racist criminal “justice” system.
11.        Defend women’s reproductive rights, including the right to choose.
12.        Full rights for all immigrants.
13.        Equal marriage rights for all.

14.        End the rule of the billionaires, bankers and militarists—fight for workers’    democracy.
15.        We need a sustainable economy based on meeting people’s needs, not making the rich richer.

After reading them, my Obama friends all agreed that these are the reasons they were voting for CHANGE!

After explaining to them that I had found these exact points on the Party for Socialism and Liberation Presidential Website, they started to back peddle.  They started to accuse me of misleading them and taking them out of context.

We are the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! 

The Declaration of Independence states, “Life, Liberty and the PURSUIT of Happiness!”
