We are soon going to vote. Many of us believe our vote is a serious business. This time around we've come to a watershed moment in our history. Do not allow wishful thinking and hope rob you of your vote.
Wishful thinking is voting for Romney because he is rich and a businessman and we want to be rich, too. Romney promises to fix the economy but a Republican has never fixed the economy-except for the 1 percent. They can only destroy the economy then Democrats are elected to fix it. Hope is thinking that if Romney gets elected he'll help all of us get rich. Remember what he said behind closed doors and in the company of his ilk-he does not care about 47 percent of the people. This is how he truly feels.
In truth, Romney has never created a job and he promises 12 million jobs in his first term. When pigs fly! He destroys companies and workers' lives as jobs bleed away to foreign countries. You can help turn the tide of our country back to an American dream that our children will thank you for and cherish you for your wisdom.
