Change for The World? What About America?

So seriously, Barack Obama is going to unite the world? Make every other country "respect" us once more? How can he possibly do this when he can't even get the US of A on one page? Since mid-Summer, Obama has steadily been dropping in the polls, yet this week an article came out saying that the "rest of the world wants Obama," and the polls say that he is in fact the world's choice to be the next president of the greatest country ever.

Yes, it is truly sad. People of this country actually use these polls as a "sign that we should elect Barack." Well, let me pose a question to you. Why do we have the world's strongest economy? Is it because we have pandered to what the rest of the world wants? Is it because we have followed the rest of the world's economic principles? No. It is not. Low taxes, freedom and small government are the key to winning economically.

Despite our "recession" our economy still grew 3 times faster than the European Union's. If Obama gets in, he will try to enact economic policies that the rest of the world has, meaning that yes, our growth will slow and become more in line with the rest of the world. Perhaps this is what the left in our country wants, but if we are to continue to be the world's economic power, we must elect leaders who will keep the intentions of the founding fathers, including low taxes and small government.

It is easy to understand following logic that when taxes are raised on corporations, they have less ability to invest and grow, which is the lifeblood for American jobs. Think twice before you vote for the rockstar Obama, because the rest of the world would love to see us fall in line with their economic policies.
