wrong-doing is rampant throughtout our government and the private sector.....
government has become a path to personal enrichment for most in congress.....and, this is wrong, wrong, wrong.....
I could list a gazillion Democrats and you could counter with a list of a gazillion Republicans who are guilty of using elected office for financial gain....
THAT IS NOT THE POINT.....
a high visibility figure such as the president by default becomes moral compass for the nation through an almost suliminal process....
therefore, we need a person in our highest office who is beyond reproach and by example HELPS to set our the moral tone of our nation....
Obama has failed miserably in that regard. IMO, his vilification has encouraged the negativity and despondency we see and feel throughout this nation.
