Barack Obama's book, "The Audacity of Hope," features a catchy title. It has an idea of bravery mixed with confidence. There is nothing Pollyanna regarding this. I will not support everything he says, but he's our president, and then for me, he inspires belief. That will do more for a country than any amount of backroom deals. Hope gives us energy, and energy sustains us through trying times. Boy, we've had them. I'm from West Texas, and I did not vote for Bush. When McCain ran against Obama, I used to be a citizen of Arizona, but I gave audacious hope a chance. The fight for progress and laying the foundations of prosperity is not over. I've seen the quips of those that don't think Obama is capable of it. But step back a second. Would anyone have most of us fail in order to tarnish the star of an incumbent for whom they did not vote? Attempting to keep our priorities straight, let's work together with this president and build our future.
As a lifelong Democratic voter, I'm sad to say that I've been disappointed by Obama since the election. He's been acting like a republican and completely ignoring the Progressives who helped elect him. I regret my vote, and I won't vote to re-elect him in 2012.
