Which way will you vote in two weeks?

All of the debates are over and I hope you are closer to choosing who you think would be the best candidate for running the United States.

If you paid attention to the debates, it was clear who the leader was in all the debates.  The man who explained to the American people the truth about what was happening in our economy instead of blaming others for his job performance.  It was the man who gave answers and not excuses.  It was the man who maintained control and respect instead of narcissistic interruptions and childish behavior.  It was the man who actually answered the questions instead of double talking his way around the issue.  It was the man who has a vision for the future and a successful record instead of the man who wants to push the economy "forward" and right off the cliff.

When making your decision on November 6, think of these things when you are standing in the voting booth:

  • Unemployment over 8% for 3 years - 5.8% when Bush left office
  • Food Stamps - 23 million in 2008 - 47 million in 2012
  • Median Incomes down by $3,200 per year
  • What are home values today as opposed to four years ago and how many people have lost their homes?
  • 10 Trillion national deficit in 2008 - now it is16 Trillion
  • Forced socialized medical care - whether you want it or not OBAMACARE
  • Gas prices in 2008 were $1.87 - now over $4.00
  • The government's role in everyone's life - current administration wants MORE government intervention - his opponent wants LESS - what do you want?
The big question - are you better off today than four years ago?  Be honest.

Where do the candidates stand on issues?  What are their ethics, competence, trustworthiness and ability?
