Barack Obama maintains that the concept of government envisioned by our Founding Fathers hasn't worked and must be changed. As the 2008 election drew to a close, Obama stated " We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America." With this arrogant boast Obama placed himself on the level with our Founding Fathers, implying that he not only knows what's best for America, but is capable of imposing it. Obama's administration has been fraught with haughty, self-aggrandizing pronouncements. They are usually just hot air with no substance. Obama has few if any accomplishments to his credit and what he has implemented has not only failed to achieve its purpose but has actually caused harmful side effects.
America's economy, as well as its social structure, are in a desperate condition. Unfortunately, countless Americans are either unaware or in denial about the serious crisis our country currently faces. Consequently, they think that the current presidential election holds no special significance over previous elections.
