I voted for Obama the first time.....he has unquestionably let me down.... the presidency was prime for the taking....a lob pitch across the plate.....and the best that the Republican could do was Mitt Romney? You guys want to point fingers, then point it at the Republican party for not having a candidate that could win the Presidency when it was prime for the taking....

Not only a lob across the plate ONCE.... BUT in the LAST TWO elections!!



And I couldn't agree with you more about CONGRESS (House and Senate). People in the USA just don't understand that this is a FAR MORE IMPORTANT VOTE than for the POTUS.

THAT is why our education system needs an overhaul! We teach all manor of STUFF -- but people can't do or understand BASICS.

I see half the guys on this board using "their" (as in THEMSELVES) - "there" (as in a PLACE) and "they're" (as in THEY ARE) wrong daily! And "to" (going somewhere?) and "too" (too big, too small, too few cubic inches - me too, as in also)....

I'll give you a pass on using "manor" where you should have used "manner" right before going into a rant about people misusing words...
