SO.....Despite what the polls say about Newt, my conservative friends down South (East TN, North GA, ATL metro) want to turn 2012 into 1980...
They want to turn Mitt into Reagan and Obama into Carter.......It is their only path to victory...!!!
YOU CANNOT TURN LEAD TO GOLD..!!!!!
Here's why....
1. Mitt is a Mormon...That is important to Southern Baptists.
2. Obama is no Carter....He is strong on national defense; Neither Solyndra nor Fast and Furious are as troublesome as Bert Lance and ABSCAM; Gas prices in East Tennessee are below $3.00 per gallon (no hen-pecked by OPEC).
3. Reagan basically handed the US economy over to corporations. He slashed their taxes and let them spend at will.....Taxes on corporations now are already at an all-time low and the division of wealth in the country is RIDICULOUS..!!! BANKS AND CORPORATIONS ARE WHAT GOT US INTO THIS MESS IN 2008 TO START WITH..!!!
So they're no help...and I really do get the feeling they are holding back spending to try and influence the ignorant (vis-a-vis my conservative friends down South)....
SO WHAT IS THE ANSWER..!?!?
At no time in recent history has American been set up SO WELL to pull itself up by the bootstraps....No corporations, no banks, no European Union.....The AMERICAN PEOPLE can do it..!!! Start a business....start working....Not working? Get together like the Occupy folks and talk it over....Go rake your neighbors leaves....CHANGE THE CULTURE of fear and worry to positivity and growth...Let the corporations choke on themselves...!!!! Build some cabinets...sell them...Fix a car....Bake some bread....Raise some goats and pigs....Replace some windows for someone....The answer is in front of our eyes..!!! It just takes that first step....
