It's not a wait and see because it's easy to look back and see the direction of the country change after elections. Presidential elections matter a great deal. Leadership matters. It does.

It's like this... A new president comes in (Obama). He is full of energy and ready to go. Wants to do right by the country. Once in he finds out (is told) by those behind the scenes who 'really' control the country; (big money corporations, the military industrial complex, and the big money high-rollers on wall street) who WILL be calling the shots, and how it's going to be. The president soon finds out he has little latitude in so far as what he can do, what he can change,or in what direction the country will go.

Repubs go on and on about how this promise was not kept, or that policy was not enacted, but in reality there isn't much a president can do. His hands are tied.

Obama is less attuned to the interests of the powers that be, and is more attuned to the people, and the good of the country. He is/will do the very best he can under these circumstances, but he can't do much. Rmoney on the other hand is 100% on board with the big money. This is why billions are given by the likes of the Koch brothers to whetever Repub is running.

votes are flipped, propaganda and lies spew forth from the wing nut controlled media 24/7, and two presidential elections have been stolen.

This is why it is in the best interest of ALL Americans to support and vote for Obama.
