DISRESPECT OF THE PLEDGE OF ALLAGIANCE &lt;br&gt;4.	DISRESPECT OF THE AMERICAN TROOPS!! Mr Obama FAILED TO SUPPORT THE TROOPS ON CAPITAL HILL WITH HIS VOTES. &lt;br&gt;5.	 ALSO DISGRACED HIMSELF BY NOT HAVING THE TIME TO VISIT TROOPS IN IRAQ AND AFGANISTAN FOR THE TIME HE HAS BEEN IN THE SENATE ONLY ONE TIME.&lt;br&gt;6.	 Mr Obama PUT MORE EFFORT IN GOING TO KENYA TO CAMPAIGN FOR Mr RAILA THAN HE DID GETTING FIRST HAND KNOWLEDGE OF WHAT TROOPS WERE FACING.&lt;br&gt;All it took for me was one of the above to seal my decision, what about you America.&lt;br&gt;The things above are what I see as issues there are many more which are there, if the issues are what America votes on everyone knows America wins, The economy is not the only issue and as I see it Obama will destroy that along with many other things.</description>

		<description>I wish I could claim the writing you&#039;re about to read. I can&#039;t. This piece was written by a Cuban refuge Named Manuel Alvarez, Jr. Who escaped from communist Cuba on June 30, 1968.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;You will find his observations very prophetic ... And very chilling.&lt;br&gt;Make sure you get this into the hands of every person you know. Make sure you get this into the hands of every State GOP official you can you reach by Email. These remarks could change the election.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;         The Richmond Times-Dispatch Monday, July 7, 2008&lt;br&gt;         Excerpt from  &#039;Letters to the Editor&#039;&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;        Beware Charismatic Men Who Preach &#039;Change&#039;&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;        Each year I get to celebrate Independence Day twice. On June 30 I Celebrate my Independence day. On July 4 I celebrate America&#039;s. This year is Special, Because it marks the 40th anniversary of my independence.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;        On June 30, 1968, I escaped Communist Cuba and a few months later I was In the United States to stay. That I happened to arrive in Richmond on Thanksgiving Day is just part of the story, but I digress.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;        I&#039;ve thought a lot about the anniversary this year. The election-year rhetoric has made me think a lot about Cuba and what transpired there.&lt;br&gt;         In the late 1950s, most Cubans thought Cuba needed a change, and they were right.   So when a young leader came along, every Cuban was at least receptive.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;        When the young leader spoke eloquently and passionately and denounced the old system, the press fell in love with him.  They never questioned who his friends were or what he really believed in. When he said he would help the farmers and the poor, and bring free medical care and education to all, everyone followed. When he said he would bring justice and equality to all, everyone said &#039;Praise the Lord.&#039; And when the young leader said,  &#039;I will be for change and I&#039;ll bring you change,&#039; everyone yelled, &#039;Viva Fidel!&#039;&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;        But nobody asked about the change, so by the time the executioner&#039;s guns went silent, the people&#039;s guns had been taken away. By the time everyone was equal, they were equally poor, hungry, and oppressed. By the time everyone received their free education it was worth nothing. By the time the press noticed, it was too late, because they were now working for him. By the time the change was finally implemented Cuba had been knocked down a couple of notches to Third-World status. By the time&lt;br&gt;the change was over more than a million people had taken to boats, rafts, and inner tubes. You can call those who made it&lt;br&gt;ashore anywhere else in the world the most fortunate Cubans. And now I&#039;m back to the beginning of my story.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;        Luckily,  We would never fall--in America--for a young leader who promised change without asking, what change?&lt;br&gt;How will you carry it out?  What will it cost America?&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;        Would we?&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;        Manuel  Alvarez Jr.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;____________________________________________&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;        Let me pose a question:  By the time Sen. Obama&#039;s much-promised, soon-coming (but never discussed) change takes place, and the American people are forced to take to their boats, rafts and inner tubes ... Where do we go?  Cuba? Haiti? Think about that when you go out to vote on November 4 because this is the most critical election of your life. And, by the way, remember this, too.&lt;br&gt;Not one single person has thought to ask Sen. Obama to be very specific in telling us precisely what changes he plans to make in our United States of America.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;        Jon Christian Ryter</description>
