Lucid, informative and very well presented.

Change we can believe in! Change to record latino & black unemployment. Record months of unemployment above 8%. Record deficits. Record incompetency. Obama is in over his head & those who questioned if Obama was qualified to be President were right-he is not. Obama has failed, especially those who trusted him the most-blacks & latinos. I can't believe I voted for this guy! I'm voting Republican, proudly November 2012!
