There are 24 million of my fellow citizens who would benefit from prosperity do I would vote yes. Of course that is not going to happen so the question is really why fantasize about it.

Yes means voting for Romney. Businesses are enthusiastic and optimistic that he might win, and the certainty of what he's going to do to help them means they will start spending all the money that they've been holding back, returning us to prosperity pretty quickly. You may not like the man personally, but business does, and business runs the economy. They'll create jobs, they'll take risks, they'll spend their money, and that will cascade across the economy. (Obama will take credit for it, of course, and the media will probably give it to him.)
No means voting for Obama. The House is going to remain Republican. They aren't going to suddenly bend over if he would win. So we'll have 4 more years of grid lock, same as now. Businesses have also said they'll scale back even more if Obama wins, and many will just shut down completely. Rich people can live off their savings and generate not one single dollar in taxable income for the next 4 years, making Obama's singular solution (tax the rich!) pointless. A vote for Obama means staying the course that we are on... and watching it get worse.
I vote YES... let's return to prosperity. I'm sick of the last 6 years. It's depressing.
I also find it laughable when people say Obama couldn't have done better given all the difficult things left to him by Bush, but now that it's TWICE as bad in every area, they think he's the best man for the job. It's like hiring a handyman to fix a leak, he ends up flooding your basement, and when a real plumber comes along, you insist on sticking with the handyman, because he's just really cool.

The US will never be prosperous as long as Obama is President. The question can not be answered with a simple YES or NO, WHY? As VOTERS we have to wake up..
Our country probably wouldn't be on the verge of FINANCIAL RUIN if the media had done their job vetting this president.
A quote from the Address given at the Democratic State Convention, Syracuse, N.Y. September 29, 1936 by President Franklin D. Roosevelt.
"And the simple causes of our unpreparedness were two:
First, a weak leadership, and, secondly, an inability to see causes, to understand the reasons for social unrest—the tragic plight of 90 percent of the men, women and children who made up the population of the United States.
It has been well said that "The most dreadful failure of which any form of government can be guilty is simply to lose touch with reality, because out of this failure all imaginable forms of evil grow. Every empire that has crashed has come down primarily because its rulers did not know what was going on in the world and were incapable of learning."
Sounds like Roosevelt's description of Obama before Obama was ever born.
Obama has been CLEARLY GUILTY of HORRID JUDGMENT to the point of MALFEASANCE....
How does one equate loss of lives with money? Well..... you cannot..
Running Obamacare through against the will of the people
(No chance for PROSPERITY there)
Fast and furious still under investigation resulting in the death of an American border guard (Costing the tax payer once again)
NO PROSPERITY here either
The death of Chris Stevens in Benghazi which THE POTUS WATCHED LIVE in ACTUAL TIME on video.
Along with the death of the three who tried to save him.
(Possible source of the downfall of this country resulting with No chance for PROSPERITY)
The blame and arrest of a man voicing a 15 min video which had NOTHING to do with protests UNTIL IT WAS BROUGHT OUT BY OUR ADMINISTRATION ---- AFTER THE FACT.
(NO PROSPERITY where there is constant Blame and excuses....)
Obvious collaboration with Russia but they have to wait till after he is re-elected, why? What will that little line cost the American people.
OBAMA HAS BEEN DISHONEST time after time.... UNTRUSTWORTHY as well as INCOMPETENT
WHEN A PRESIDENT HAS RESPECT FOR THE OFFICE HE HOLDS
THAT'S WHEN AMERICA WILL BE BACK ON THE ROAD TO A PROSPEROUS FUTURE ONCE MORE.

First of all, such a vote would have to be a referendum to add an amendment.to limit the power of the Federal government to what is outlined in the U.S. Constitution. This amendment should expel anyone in public office that deviates from those powers with immediate effect (Aside from Social Security and Medicare/Medicaid). Big government is an impediment to freedom and economic growth.
This would get government out of the way of Americans and restrict their duties to protecting us and our borders. This would eliminate 600+ government organizations and eliminate our deficit within 2 years. America with a huge surplus -- then give the money back to the people that earned it in the first place and stay out of the way.

Stop the gop from doubling their use of the filibuster for the sole intention of keeping a non-white president from gaining votes.
