I have given money to the 2012 Obama campaign.
I will vote for Obama.
I would love to volunteer but I refuse to do so.
WHY?
The President needs to step up, acknowledge the Occupy Movement in a positive way, and defends the First Amendment Rights of those protesting and condemn the actions of those who want to trample on the less powerful.
He needs to start talking about why there are so many people out of work and underemployed while the few make millions, pollute our planet, degrade free and public education, and maintain a status quo for energy giants who are dragging their feet to move towards sustainability.
Many of us understand we are moving through an adjustment period where we must learn to live with less. I have no problem with that but there will be increasing political unrest as long as the people in this country perceive economic injustice.
The campaign can call me when he addresses these issues.
