If you want CHANGE, why look to someone else? Why dont you CHANGE yourself?

Well said. And Ron Paul would support that statement!

You forget that we live in a representative democracy? Meaning our politicians are the only ones that can make legislative change, which is what Americans want. The only change we can make is a change in who we are voting for. ;)

DAMN GOOD QUESTION !!! CHANGE is ALL that you will get back from the Socialist/Communist/Liberal Democrats, when they TAKE your hard earned paycheck from you to give it to able bodied people, "FEEDERS", who do NOT want to get off of their butts and actually get a job !! Our wonderful government hand-out programs !! Please, TRY to HOPE in one hand and SPIT in the other hand! Which one is filling up the fastest ?? . We need to make sure that the person that represents AMERICA is PRO-AMERICA !!! WE NEED to make sure that EVERY man, woman, and child, KNOW how ANTI-AMERICAN Obama and his Reverend(S) ARE !!! Would a CONTINUAL 20 years of "second hand smoke" have a negative affect on the other people in the area ?? Would a CONTINUAL 20 years of "Anti-American Preachings" have a negative affect on the other people in the area ?? John F. Kennedy, a Democrat, was sworn in as the 35th President of THE United States of America, at noon on January 20, 1961. In his inaugural address he spoke of the NEED for ALL Americans to be ACTIVE CITIZENS, famously saying, "Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country." Please NOTICE that it said DEMOCRAT - NOT Socialist and / or Communist Democrat !! It means this country is only as strong as the people in it. It means get off your a$$ and do something!!! . The Democratic Elite make the rules and then they change them for their convenience !! The Elite Democrats feel like THEY know better than YOU who would be the best person to run the country !!! By the People and For the People !!! . AND ... FOR THE BLAMERS ... Democrats have to recognize that since the 73rd Congress in 1933, for a majority of THE LAST 65 YEARS, Democratic Houses of Representatives and Democratic Senates have CONTROLLED the nation and the President. A TOTAL of 38 Sessions with Democrats in CONTROL for 28 of those! WE need to inform/TELL our political representatives that WE NEED TO PASS a Constitutional Amendment for the LINE ITEM VETO. This will keep the SPECIAL INTEREST GARBAGE from being attached to valuable legislation. If Congress wants to give the president that power, they will have to pass a constitutional amendment, Supreme Justice John Paul Stevens said. "If there is to be a new procedure in which the president will play a different role in determining the text of what may become a law, such change must come not by legislation but through the amendment procedures set forth in Article V of the Constitution," Stevens said, on June 25th, 1998. IF your special interest is SO valuable, why do you have to HIDE it in valuable legislation? So, with them REFUSING to PASS the Line Item Veto, in reality, the House and Senate have REALLY been controlling the country!! AND, with the CURRENT Senate and Congress having the WORST approval rating in HISTORY, hopefully we will see a LOT of changes after the general elections. A recent Reuters poll is out and Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid have pulled an upset: They have managed to make George Walker Bush twice as popular as CONGRESS. RECENTLY - - JUST 13% of Likely Voters now say the DEMOCRATICALLY CONTROLLED Congress is doing a good or excellent job. A recent Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey found that 43% give Congress a poor rating. Those results represent a slight decrease from the previous month, when 15% gave Congress a good or excellent rating. Democrats generally believe in heavy fines for honest work, while rewarding sloth and indulgence. Do YOU think that people should be able to do absolutely nothing productive and get government hand-outs for sloth and indulgence - healthcare, tobacco, alcohol, drugs, STDs, etc. ?? Do YOU want to have YOUR MONEY TAKEN from YOU and YOUR FAMILY to FINANCE these people ??? .

A documentary was shown at the Democratic Convention when Bill Clinton won called: Man from Hope. Obama is not original about anything. You are right, people should think about that. Obama is not a man who changes things... He talks about change. People that work for change have records of solid change Obama has a careful record of fence sitting, and opportunism, quest for power and contacts -- not change.

I changed the way I did things a long time ago. Doesn't mean the rest of the country is any better off for it.

The problem is that too many libtards depend on the government to cause change... They can't do it themselves. They need a support group. Unfortunately, when the government does cause change, it's always for the worse...

That's all the dems are good for, they talk the talk, but can't walk the walk. He's running on the same 'hope' Bill Clinton won with. It should be called 'hype'. Do y'all remember the Clinton's and Gore's on stage doing the victory dance to the Fleetwood Mac song "don't stop believing" . Pure hype.

Ok, here I go...

That is the best point I've heard on here in a while. Why wait for someone else to change things to make your life better? If you're unhappy with your life, do something about it.....now.
