A corporate raider as President ?

President
A man whose personal greed lead him destroy the lives of the workers at his mercy.
A man with secret bank accounts in tax havens that show an open disdain for the laws of his own govt.
A man who refuses to reveal the govt records of his financial past.
A man who destroyed public records in order to hide his political past

If one thing is for sure.

The lies about Obama pale in comparison to the truth about Romney.

My point is it’s a waste of time! No one President can help America, no matter who he is. The main issue facing America right now is not a political one, it’s a social one. You see in order for America to move forward it has to concede that it is no longer the super power it once was. It has to accept that it’s future will consist of following and not leading. It has to give way to the likes of China and India.

While I’m sure the politicians realise this, it’s a fact that the general public never will. Take if you will the proud American dad at his son’s baseball game. You know the guy; pick up truck and handgun, wholesome yet ignorant Christian with an ever so slight Wendy’s addiction. He and the millions like him would never concede that America is anything but number one. This all makes for a very dangerous stalemate.

China is over rated. Its still a country with a massive uneducated rural population and a very corrupted govt. It also has the future problem of having one of the worst ratios of workers vs elderly population in the world because of their one child policy witch threw natural demographics out of sync.

I don't think well have to concede superiority to anyone. But we should acknowledge that we are better than other countries because we're Americans.

Good points brought up here: Spam, ball: good stuff.

However, the US spends on MIlitary equal to what the Entire rest of the planet spends COMBINED, that means China AND India AND everyone else.

The US is NOT matched. Not even remotely close!!

AS far as Populations: sure India and China both have al lot of PEOPLE. But i have been to both countries. Those countries have one leg in the 1400's and the other in in 2012. They are not so ready for world domination as many profess.
 
Last checked America's GNP was double any nation on earth...10 times the size of "India".....The doomsday day talk is non-sense
 
There are any number of Dystopian futures that we can ponder, but personally, I like to think more on the bright side. We need a new Age of Reason, a new Age of Enlightenment, one party is in denial of progress and looks to the past, the other looks to the future.
