Obamaland is not what America was or what America could be

Mychal Massie sums up in seven very short paragraphs why America is not the nation it was and is not the nation it could be and what he says is totally contrary to what Obama stands for.

America not good enough for Obama’s children

Asked in Elkhart, Ind., by a 7-year-old little girl, why he wanted to be president, Barack Obama answered: “Because I don’t believe that America is what it could be [or] what it once was – and I don’t want that for my little girls.”

Parsing his statement, “He doesn’t want our America for [his] little girls,” because he doesn’t “believe [it is] what it once was.” On that point, I agree with him, albeit for completely different reasons.

When a presidential candidate says, “[We] Americans can’t drive our SUVs and [cannot] eat as much as we want and [cannot] keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times … and then just expect that other countries are going to be okay.” When he states emphatically that this will not be the case under his leadership – I submit that we can conclude what kind of country he believes America “could be.” The problem is, that’s not the kind of country our Founding Fathers envisioned nor is it the kind of nation a majority of Americans want to live in
