There is no point in blaming anyone in the government, we voted them there. You want to see who caused all of this take a good look in a mirror. We screwed up and all we have done is compound the problem. You all want change it starts with each of us finding a resonating truth, something that reverberates through time. It is the will and desire to do something better. To take this twisted movie we call life and to make it right.

Yes we have the power to overthrow our government and they know it and are very afraid. They are so afraid they have to keep our hearts and minds so far from the thought of doing so by any means. If they can keep us entertained through television, social networks, drugs and aclohol, and even the thought of one day living the American dream we will never know what we truly are considered to be to them. What are we to them?? Slaves. We are slaves awaiting to be led out of our bondage just as the slaves that Moses in the bible had to lead out of bondage. Unfortunately, the only way to break free from this bondage is for the peolpe to rise up, revolt, and start a revolution. It will not happen by simply holding up a bunch of protest signs and it wont happen through our ability to vote either. Sometimes when there is a problem the only way to fix it is to fight and die for what you believe in. I am one man with one voice but will be heard throughout the echoes of eternity….and I say RISE>>>>REVOLT>>>>REVOLUTION…………….CHANGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Obama's popularity has hit new lows and at the present time Bush's numbers were much better than Obama. In fact, the latest Rasmusen polls report he is one of the most unpopular president's in our country's history. This administration is attempting to buy everyone off and push through this healthcare reform bill that will only cost more money and make it more difficult for those who are insured to hold on to their policies as those rates are expected to skyrocket. The thought of being imprisoned if you refuse to buy insurance, mind you the government may dictate what is acceptable, is beyond unbelievable in America! I fear we have dark days ahead of us and I'm so angry with everyone who voted this guy in when it was painfully obvious what his intentions were…..guess what…you can't always believe what politicians say….please do your research prior to voting….or do us all a favor and don't vote!

We didn't have the power to do anything. It was the politicians who were on the payroll who would determine his fate.

No one likes President Obama because no one likes change. No one likes the fact that this guy is trying to fix this whole dog-eat-dog perspective. We can't live like that.

Okay. So even if we all protest and rally, the politicians are still in control. What exactly can we do against the most powerful people in America? Wave banners at them. They would just laugh and go back to their private jets.

I am a sophomore in highschool and I have always wondered about this question. I mean, ever since I learned about our rights in fourth grade, I never understood why people complained about our government. If we feel that our government is abusing its power, why haven't we done anything? We have the power to overthrow it if we feel that it is correct. Nowadays, it almost seems like we don't have any say in what our government does. I think people should be more aware of their rights. When Bush was president, everyone complained about his ideas and the way he did things. He was President for 8 years! If people really didn't like him, they would've done something about it. I

I have a question for you Papadawg. Let’s say that a massive victory for the people of the United States was won, and the a third party gets in. Do you think that this party will not get drunk with power? Is there a party that will look solely towards the needs of the American people? Remember, this was a question not a statement.
