Will Obama keep his campaign promise ?

Will Obama keep his campaign promise of income redistribution + sharing of wealth for all by assuring that all Americans will become equally poor under Obama's Administration ?

Will America be relieved of our concerns over whether the rich are paying their " fair " share of taxes because Obama will just eliminate the possibility of becoming/being rich in America ?

    HELL NO! He's already started and it's still November and he's not even president yet. Just wait until he really gets going.

    It's almost funny how he promised "change" and then he uses a recycled cabinet. wow, that sure looks like change to me - NOT!

    In a word.." NO".

    But just in case he does, I am putting my name down to be the first to share his personal wealth.. went from a low income earner to a millionaire.. just because he could talk good. Has yet to do one damn thing for this country.

    So I think I'm going to be right there ready to live in one of the rooms of his mansion.. he'll be living in the white house so he won't need it.. anyone else want to come.. there's lots of room..Charity begins at home you know.. Obama's home.

    No.. cause he *change * his mind..gee..can he do that?

    President-elect Barack Obama may consider delaying a campaign promise - to roll back tax cuts on high-income Americans - as part of his economic recovery strategy, two aides said on Sunday.

    We can only hope not. I like the way he ignored that the "rich" (top 10% of income earners) already pay almost 80% of taxes collected.

    Welllll,

    It was just announced 45 minutes ago he is going to suspend rolling back the Bush tax cuts.

    So, on that issue, the answer is no.

    A lesson learned here is to never trust anything Obama says.

    There is no way that Obama will do half of what he said. He'll do nothing more than what Jimmy Carter did.

    Are you really kidding me? There is not a human alive that could fix any of this mess this country is in. He can make all the promises he wants it isn't going to happen in any of our lifetimes. Period
