Both parties in the presidential campaign are focusing on the middle class and leaving the uninsured working poor largely invisible. The uninsured working poor if combined with the 9 to 14 percent unemployed will give whomever can get their support the white house. It's that combination of voters that need to see the writing on the wall, put race aside and retake Congress for the Democrats so that Obama can continue in his struggle to protect both the  uninsured working poor and all Americans. The double R brand (Ryan and Romney) have promised to make insurance unavailable to the uninsured working poor, the unemployed  and to sharply increase premiums to the middle class and seniors.
The double R brand along with the Governors of Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas in their denial that there is an equality problem will sacrifice a large number of white voters in order to hurt a small number of black voters. It's time for those voters to wake up and stop being sacrificed to empower the rich. We are in this together, let's fight together for equality.

Joe Biden to supporters: Mitt Romney will ‘put you all back in chains’

The only reason that I would vote for Obama and Biden is the fact that if I did not, I would be risking Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan being elected and I love my country to much to allow them an unopposed election victory. I absolutely hate some of the decisions that Obama made, but a vote for Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan would be voting for anarchy and economic slavery for middle class and the poor Americans.

Thousands of fish die as Midwest streams heat up

Most of these comments completely miss the point . Most of us has at some time in our lives have been in a situation where the heat made breathing difficult. That will soon be the rule rather than the exception. What happened to the fish will happen to us if we continue to do nothing about global warming.

'This is not science but what I see happening to our planet. If you take a kids spinning top and center a weight directly on top of the spinning top it will spin normally, but if you move the weight off center you affect it's rotation.

             We have two elements in play that are contributing to global warming which is affecting                                      

             the rotation of the earth, oil depletion and melting ice caps. There is no way of predicting 

             how the rotation will manifest. We could possibly end up with no rotation not unlike the    

             moon with one side always light and hot, and the other side dark and cold.

             It is more obvious to farmers that our seasons are changing, but before they can adjust to 

             the current change they will have lost most of their crops and will not be able to predict 

             how the continuing change will affect their future crops.'

I think that most of those 8 percent believe that Obama sold them out with his endorsement of same sex marriage and his stand on illegal immigration. If not for a belief among most Democrats that Rommey is a nut case and will lead the country in the wrong direction, more Democrats would abandon Obama.

Gabby Douglas doesn’t care what you think about her hair

Gabby Douglas be proud of who you are, what you are and how you look. Enjoy your success and do not let anybody put into your head a distraction as trivial as how your hair looks when you are competing. It's an intentional distraction by someone that has motives that are not in your best interest.

Rollover minutes

A.T.&T.'s rollover minutes is a marketing scheme to rip off it's customers. When A.T.&T.'s profits justified lowering rates, they instead chose to add a useless benefit that would not increase their cost and charge their customers for it.

Outsourcing Is Good For America: Cato’s Michael Tanner

That makes as much sense as pouring gasoline on a fireworks fire. Not all Americans have the skills for high tech jobs and those 400,000 service jobs bring in money to support the high tech industry and they  keep  most of those 400,000 off government assistance.
What we need is government regulations that prevent merchandise from U.S. companies that outsource from re-entering the U.S. market.

In Obama era, have race relations improved?

I asked President Obama, Secetary of State Clinton, and Attorney General Holder for help in a clearly race related matter where I was forced to accept a Bad Conduct Discharge from the Navy because I went up against the KKK to help some white sailors that did not want to be recruited by the KKK. The end result of my efforts was the murder of two pilots that tried to help me expose the KKK presence at NAS San Diego. Neither Obama, Clinton or Holder has responded to my letters.

Tax Cuts

The best thing for the country is to let the tax cuts expire. I do not believe that enough Democratic Congressmen and Senators stand up for what is right for the country.

Outsourcing our manufacturing jobs sent a message to the younger generation in the U.S., why go to school if all of jobs are overseas. It's good that the jobs are coming back to the U.S., but it will take some time and dedication for us to regain our competitive edge. As a veteran and an OG, I realize the importance of domestic manufacturing to our national security as well as our economic security and I support all efforts to bring manufacturing jobs back to the U.S. including rescinding all economic benefits, taxing and penalizing companies that choose to outsource.
