Re: How will you respond to an Obama Presidency

Obama is NOT here to stay. Should BO become President, we will survive. America is resilient to radical change and we will swing back to center.

Jane, I wonder if there will end up being a revolution in this country.

I don't know how mad people have to get to decide they must take it back

from the Liberals and Muslims
Jefferson, felt that a Revolution every now and then was good for Democracy.

We made it through the Clintons, but they didn't control congress and at least he had some Southern Charm and upbringing.

I was raised to be separate... not loving the world - neither expecting to be loved by the world.

As the darkness encroaches our light will shine brighter.

However, I am encouraged that we still yet are the most free people on earth.

I can sort of see why the Amish live off by themselves and
shun the rest of society. I still think it's a little odd and that
there is a down side, BUT with what I see coming, I am thinking
maybe they were on to something
