We must demand that Obama name real progressives to his Cabinet if he expects the people who supported him in 2008 to do the same in 2012.
That's all the response you have? Give me some kind of an answer with some real substance. I want you to try to change my mind, not just follow blindly like a majority of the people in New Yok.
This country started out as a theocracy. The founding fathers builtthis once great nation on the fundamntals of there Christian faith. Maybe the degradation of those principles is how we ended up wherewe are now.
Maybe not.
I'm still pissed he didn't push for prosecuting torture. But he never misrepresented his ideology. He is a firm centrist, despite the right trying to label him as a socialist or a fascist. They were so blinded by his skin color they couldn't see he was a great opportunity for them to move a bunch of ideas forward. He tried too hard and for too long to get them to work with him, which made him look weak.
On the other hand, though, he at least has a great intellect. And there is no way I would vote for a social conservative. I won't help turn us into a theocracy on top of all our other problems.
yes or we will support that other guy cause the other guy is better
make him get progressive cabernet, YUM
Good luck..... You'd probably have more of a chance to get Bush to have put any in his cabinet. They have the same motives, why does anybody on the left still believe in obama?
