Shame on Trump for jumping on the bigot bandwagon, playing the made-up mudslinging card, and infecting minds in our country by suggesting that the President of the United States isn't even an American. That thought and action is very UN-American. He needs to stay on prime time T.V. and keep styling his hair.
In my opinion, President Obama is doing a good job with the situation he has been given.
His green views on energy may be a lot for our economically sick nation to digest at the present time, but at least somebody is saying what we need to hear. One day we will realize that he was right whether by climate change or a better system of transportation.
What does Trump have to offer our American family? He has three ex-wives, a profligate lifestyle, and Celebrity Apprentice. Are we getting the picture? While this life may be tempting for some it is not worthy of the Presidency.
On the contrary, Obama has one extremely intelligent wife, two beautiful kids, and a Portuguese water dog named Bo.
The President should be the person best qualified for the job as well as someone who represents our American ideals.
Instead of squabbling over Trump's stupid issues like Birther's claims that Obama isn't even American, I suggest that we listen to Obama and hear what this highly intelligent Harvard graduate has to say and follow his advice. I guarantee he knows more about economic policy then the majority of us do.
We need to come together and start following our leader instead of calling him names or putting unfunny racist pictures on the web for all of us to NOT want to think about. This is distracting people from what needs to be done in order to nurse our country back to health.
It will probably take an economic genius or a team of them to get us out of this mess. Our last economic miracle man, former President Clinton, figured out our complex 90's economy. This was why we had an economic trade surplus when he left after two terms in office.
Now it is Obama’s time to rule and we may need him for two terms so that he can lift America back on its feet. Last thing we should do is chase him away.
USA still has the opportunity to regain its rightful place as the country with the strong middle class. We just have to be smart about it.
Let’s not flush our country down the dum-dum toilet by encouraging Trump and his followers to blindly cast stones in an effort to discredit our president.
Trump and the Birthers seem to forget that if they do somehow succeed and invalidate Obama's claim as a U.S. born citizen, these misled Americans will be inadvertently invalidating the citizenship of everybody who was born in Hawaii. They will also be insulting our national flag.
FYI Hawaii became the fiftieth state in the union in 1959. During the fight for statehood, the Kingdom of Hawaii supported the United States in World War II as well as the Korean War. They are and have the right to be Americans.
This is a wake up call to all those supporters of Trump. Smell the coffee already and let Trump do what he is good at doing and that is looking good on T.V. and giving business tips.
Don't be fooled. He is NOT the next Ronald Regan.
Trump is merely an opportunist cashing in on fear. We should not encourage his presidential aspirations. He belongs on Celebrity Apprentice not the Oval Office.
Our economy is contracting primarily due to our big business policies of outsourcing our workforce to other countries in order to save a buck or two. Now we are paying the price with high unemployment.
Inflation is occurring because our interest rates are too low and hovering around a quarter of a percent.
If the Feds raise interest rates the likely effect is that gas and food prices would go down but so would our stock market. With the dollar cheap, our products are very attractive to other countries that import our goods. This in turn lifts our stock markets as people around the world buy our stuff.
Gas and food prices will continue to rise until the Feds figure out a solution to combat this current inflation trend. It's a tricky horse to ride worthy of the balance of an economic Olympic gymnast.
How about the rest of us come up more inventive ways of running our own business' and make our own American dream. We need to play an active role in following in the footsteps of job creation experts like Facebook’s founder Mark Zuckerberg. Obama was wise to have a pow-wow with him and I hope he learned something. I bet we could too.
I am interested in where the next job adding American guru is hiding. Who will be that person or people who will add more jobs to our healthy American computer sector?
While we wait for these creative entrepreneurs to find themselves, we should let Obama and his team figure out this situation in peace.
What can we do? Buy AMERICAN, and don’t encourage presidential naysayers like Trump who would only tarnish the image of the President of the United States.
