Some Additional Thoughts After The Republican Convention

With each passing day the stakes in this coming presidential election get higher. Whoever takes the office is going to find plenty to keep them busy. Lets list the problems and hope whoever wins has some good ideas.
  • Rising Unemployment
  • A Mortgage Crisis
  • Rising National Debt/Deficit
  • Declining Stock Market
  • War in Iraq
  • War in Afghanistan
  • A Newly Antagonistic Russia
  • Unaffordable Health Care
  • Oil at $100+ a Barrel
  • Declining Education System
  • Damaged Environment (Another big chunk of ice broke loose a day ago.)
  • Looming Threat of Terrorism
I mention all of this to say wake up America and get in the game but then this video sort of made my point for me.
