Democrats are the Socialist party

Republicans are the Capitalist party


What does history tell about socialism ?

What does history tell about capitalism ?


do some research before you vote.............its not about the personality of the candidate its about the doctrine of the party

Government jobs and social welfare programs are paid for by taxes by the working people and businesses, when there are more people taking than giving ,eventually there is nothing left to give and the system collapses and Government becomes a dictatorship. . Will it happen in 4 years ? no, but 20 years of the same socialist party will. Just like Venezuela is going , cuba and the former soviet union was

USA was founded on the Capitalist " make your own way" system not the Socialist " we will pay your way for your vote "system

God Bless America

By the way, Romney is in town today,looking for an approval of his super military budget, Obama will be in town this Sunday, telling everyone that he loves latinos. I thought that he forgot that we exist for 4 years , they only remember that this is a switching state..And the polls are tied..

Very short memories you people have ,,,he saved and renewed the entire automobile industry and also all the secondary industries . he removed Ben Laden from the earth . He brought back troops from a war in Iraq that never should have been started . He has tried to steady the economic ship that was almost sunk by laz administraion of the Republicans ..but most importantly he gave health care insurance to millions of poor people who other wise would have died simply because they could not afford treatment .
he has shown the world that the USA is not totally a land of the ugly american , but there is a much better side and so the USA is more loved by foreigners than before .

Yes, in the first two years of President Obama, the Democratic Party had a simple majority on both houses, however they didn't have a "supermajority", or three-fifths in the Senate, in order to exercise “cloture” motions on the endless number of filibusters by the Republican Party.

He also took us from a CREDITED nation to a Debited nation. No one seems to remember this. Wars that was not needed.. tax cut that was not needed, but given to create jobs and how much did they create?

Healthcare....how can you use ObamaCare when is it not in full effect? Deportation of Latinos...If you did not come to the country ILLEGALLY then that what needs to be done. Follow the law and come here legally and you won,t be deported. ILLEGALS use our healtcare system without paying... government without paying...who pays...I do with the taxes that comes out of my check. So everyone take a step back and look at the big picture.Dominicans have created all the negative thought about themselves by themselves. not one came us and made these this up.

"There is no justification that the gas was $1.55 and this week I paid $4.05 ." Well, oil prices are influenced by supply and demand. The United States is mostly on the demand side, competing with China, India, Russia, Europe and others for a very limited resource, controlled by a handful of countries that are looking for their best interest and not US. Plus, Oil is finite and is getting harder to extract, therefore more expensive.

victor, i like to try to help the uninformed, and generally academically underpriveleged. here is a start


Nov. 3, 2008—U.S. Gas prices drop to $1.72 a gallon. Some gas stations even roll out a $.99 cent promotional deal. Treehuggers question whether thesudden drop is as good as most consumers seem to think it is.

Dec. 17, 2008—OPEC removes 2.2 million barrels from its daily production. Crude oil collapses to $40 a barrel, becoming the lowest price in almost 4 years.

Dec. 26, 2008—Gas prices tumble to $1.64 a gallon. Some areas seeing prices as low as $1.45 a gallon. Crude oil is just a little over $40 a barrel still.

Dec. 31, 2008—Crude oil prices plummet below $37 a barrel while the U.S. average price for a gallon of regular unleaded gasoline falls to an amazing 5-year low of $1.61.

does that help? remember, gas prices went to 4.21 under Bush. think you can guess why?

Obama “Green Energy” Scandals Widen as Lawmakers Probe Deeper

Written by Alex Newman

The Obama administration and its Energy Department are under fire over controversial “green energy” schemes yet again, with Republican lawmakers alleging on August 15 that senior officials may have violated federal law by attempting to conceal records using private e-mail accounts. Last week, the House Oversight Committee also requested more information from President Obama about his personal involvement in funneling billions of taxpayer dollars to politically connected companies such as Solyndra that later failed.

Written by: dreadlocks, 31 Oct 2012 6:55 PM
From: United States
this is exactly why ignorant country bumpkins should not be allowed near computers. this cretin speaks of Solyndra

Plouffe said that the loan guarantee program that awarded half a billion dollars in guarantees to Solyndra "was supported by President Bush." The program was created on Bush's watch by a law he signed and promoted. The program grew under the Obama administration, which ultimately awarded Solyndra's loan guarantee under a new section of the law created by the stimulus. The Bush administration, though, promoted the loan guarantee program, and Bush himself touted it on his way out of office. There's also evidence his administration specifically prioritized Solyndra's project.

secondly, NOBODY can find any evidence of wrongdoing in the Solyndra case.

thirdly, Solyndra was the victim of the falling prices of solar panels in China. it is not the fault of anyone connected to Solyndra.

I am a professional in research and development and he sacrificed me in favor of the UAW. My pension got jettisoned, while that of the UAW got preserved, to secure some votes. His choice, and I respect it; however, process was self-serving and undemocratic and, for that, I will not vote for him.

I do give him credit for fact that the Dow Jones was hovering at about 8000 in 2008, in waning days of Bush administration; today, it is above13000.

As if the country needed more proof of the outlaw behaviors of banks and their agents, The Baltimore Sun's Jamie Smith Hopkins reports that 1,000 or more Maryland deeds are likely forgeries, created by a foreclosure mill. A former notary from law firm Shapiro & Burson filed an affidavit with law enforcement and regulators charging that the attorneys' signatures on the deeds and other important documents were forgeries signed at the express direction of management. The affidavit attached sample signatures.

Mr O Victor....Are you a citizen of the US? If so.....why would you evr say dont vote? It is the most precious right you have. Deportation of Illegal imigrants who have comitted crimes in the USA is a good thing for the host country......have you heard of the DREAM ACT? That is a great thing for Hispanics and the US......capturing Bin Laden was not coincidence, it was a concerted effort by all involved under the Presidents leadership. Your ignorance of the issues is appalling and I hope none are duped by your misinformation. America is NOT a socialist country! All you really have to know about the difference between the two men running for President is that while Romney the Rich holds photo ops pretending to care about flood victims President Obama tours the ravaged land and actually does good to help the people affected. Dominicans, think! Vote for the man, Romney, with hidden accounts in the Cayman Islands, the tax dodger, the draft dodger, ? NO,NO,NO! Vote for President Obama!

I believe in old fashion values, but i also believe that in order for the US economy to keep growing the government will need to keep a close watch. If it wasn't for Obama bailing out the auto industry and the banks we would be living in precarious times. Now i am not saying that the banks don't steal, but how are local economies to expand if the small business man cannot get a loan or if he does get it, he can't afford the interest rates. What Obama did was secure the development of local economies and you have to be blind not to see that this saved America... The Capitalist model is to let companies go out of business, but there are some instututions that we cannot allow to fall otherwise it compromises the welfare of most. What Romney is proposing is to raise taxes on the middle class and give tax breaks to the rich, now how is this going to help the average american?

I will tell you what Obama has done:


-Obama’s spending has skyrocketed the federal budget by nearly one-fourth as a percent of GDP in just one term

-In January, 2009, the month he entered office, median household income was $54,983. By June, 2012, it had spiraled down to $50,964.

-The price of gas - NO JUSTIFICATON AT ALL

-More foreclosure

-Worst imigration policy against latino ( they dont do it to white people)

-More deportations than ever

-Horrible monetary policy = Cheap dollars ( the currency used the most by dominicans overseas): less purchaising power for US dollar and scarying investor

-Increase of federal expending

-Double-dip recession would mean unemployment rocketing back into double digits once again, the deficit exploding to over $2 trillion, the highest in world history by far

- Real wages and incomes declining even more, and poverty soaring further.

The list goes on and on..

At least Romney proposed to increased the commerce ,jobs and relationship with latinamerica, instead of a candidate that disregard intentionally the latinos in USA and in their respective countries.

For those of you that are unaware this provides an opportunity for those who came to the US at an early age a chance to become citizens by continuing their education or by volunteering for the military. Thousands of young people have been helped by this.
Romeny on the other hand says he will repeal this and he advocates voluntary deportation. He favors the harsh and racist policies of states like Arizon which stop people based on the color of their skin to ask for papers. A vote for Romney is a vote for racism and bigotry in the US.
President Obama cares about the people....Romney cares for only himself and his fellow rich compatriots.

Even after many decades of waiting along with affirmitive action laws the groups are still at the bottom of good measurements and top of bad measurements.

ohhhvictor,

-- Rising wages (Higher Wages) is mentioned on the GOP platform in the context International Trade. Basically it explains that more exports will mean higher wages. Now, my questions is, more export to whom? Europe? Who is advocating austerity. China? They pretty much manufacture everything and for close to nothing. The GOP answer, trade war with China.

-- Increased government spending, was not done in order to elevate living standards. Do you remember the almost total economic collapse that President Obama inherited on day 1? Remember the 900billion Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) enacted by President Bush? Just letting the backs fold was not an option. Specially when too retirements (401K) could have been wipe out without these and subsequent actions.

Out now Member of Obama's party.

Two women from the Dominican Republic told The Daily Caller that Democratic New Jersey Sen. Bob Menendez paid them for sex earlier this year.

In interviews, the two women said they met Menendez around Easter at Casa de Campo, an expensive 7,000-acre resort in the Dominican Republic. They claimed Menendez agreed to pay them $500 for sex acts, but in the end they each received only $100.

One woman said Menendez wooed her with compliments like “beautiful” before they slept together. The other woman recounted, with apparent bitterness, receiving from an intermediary only $100 of the $500 she had been promised.

“He lies,” she said of Menendez. “He says one thing and does another.”

According to the translator’s summary, Menendez “was nice at first, but then later he did not seem to care about her."

This is just how they sucker people to vote for them. He sure treats Dominicans good and with respect. Not..

i guess that you did not know that the value of the dollar, relative to other currencies, is called the exchange rate. by the way, Mr Ignorant, the dollar to Euro rate in November 2008 is the same as it is today. why am i debating with a guy who never went to school?

so tell us, Mr Economist, just how the USA can compete with China with a dollar that is too strong to make American exports competitive, given the fact that the revaluation of the Chinese currency has come at a very slow pace?

I see with greatest sadness a disengaged voters pool which, by dereliction of duty, has relinquished its right to select our president to the talking heads and PAC's.

PAC's, in fact, may be the worst thing ever to have happened to our political process. They follow no rules and can lie and exaggerate to no end. They are like gangsters, bullying a willing voter population into submission. Too bad that to most voters the election is an inconvenience which often interferes with their affinity for sports and everything else that's meaningless.

I really have to wonder about Mr. Romney and his pledge to dramatically reduce cost of gas, create jobs, reduce taxes, etc., etc. This sounds to me like an interfering government, which is contrary to conservative thinking. Doesn't he understand that the president is just "commander-in-chief of army and navy"? Also, that only congress can write laws? He could veto, but congress could always override.

@Dr. Dread & Ramapo,

While I disagree with some of President Obama's policies at the personal level, I have to agree with your views above, and the fact that president Obama set an example and a high bar for many of us with similar backgrounds to emulate.

I'll be honest with you....singularly, dominicans in the US see themselves as being part of the aryan race, even when their skin tone and facial features betray them. Look, I do not care how white you are-real or otherwise. Here in the US, the minute someone establishes you are from DR you are automatically black or an irrelevant minority at best. I know, for in my profession I fight that reality every single day, no matter the fact that I hold more than 40 US patents and am recognized as a leader in a highly technical field and am in The Innovation Hall of Fame. And, BTW, my US passport and other documentation identify me as white and my skin color supports it.

THe latest being that Obama and Jeep plan on moving the company out of Ohio and to China....Even the CEO of the company told Romney he was wrong.
People of color from all over the world that live in the US and are elegible to vote back President Obama by about 8-2......and for good reason. His policies of stressing education, training and having the rich pay a more equal share of the taxes are geared toward helping them improve the quality of their lives.....the American Dream. The Republican platform specifically targets critical thinking in schools and teachers, hiring less, laying off more.....while the President realizes the key to the future is by educating citizens

A little more on racism...MR Romney is a Bishop in a "Church"...many Christians consider it a CULT, that until 1978 did not allow Blacks. Their Doctrine, set by their "Prophet" believed that Blacks were punished by God with dark skin and flat noses because they were the "bad people". This obviously racist belief was advocated during Romney`s time as a Bishop and something he also believed. This miraculously changed when President Jimmy Carter told the Mormon "Church" that to continue this belief would mean that they would lose their TAX EXEMPT" status.lo and behold, soon after, their Prophet announced that God had spoken to him and the ban against Blacks was lifted. These are facts, easily found.Try Wikipedia.
I am wondering also if the minor Dominican vote against President Obama has anything to do with his stance and support for equal rights for all? By this I mean his support for the gay community.

Well guess what you don’t and you’re foolish to think that rich Americans are concerned with what is best for you… If Romney is elected, rich folks will get tax breaks and you will pay more to compensate.

This is an honest take on Obama

if you are a left leaning Socialist Obama is your man. Where the government acts as big brother and believe that the rich got there not because they "build it" but because the government did it for them. There so much bad blood between business people and Obama that if he get elected again you will see the same anemic recovery for the next four year plus all these regulation is not going to help. If the Republicans do not wins both the house and the Senate then the national deficit will hit 20 trillion by the end of Obama term. This is the first time in USA history that a leaning socialist declaring the war against the rich badmouthig them telling them that they will be put in their place that they will be taxed into the country's prosperity.

This rhetory wins expecially now that 50 millions of American are on welfare. That is a good chunk of voters plus his liberal base.

Also when u factor the lost of unemployment benefit that occur during those 500,000 jobs lost a month you will see that a lot of these folks didn't have no choice but to get on welfare.

Do you know that Welfare reached a Trillion Dollar in last year budget? That is Obama legacy.

no, fool. that is the BUSH LEGACY. do you know when the economy started to melt down? in 2007. Bush was president then. that is when foreclosures started to go through the roof. do you know what that means? that means people began to lose COLLATERAL. because of declining real wealth, since the days of Ronald Ray Gun, in order to maintain steady state consumption levels, people in the US live on credit. their house is their only collateral, in most cases. they refinance based on equity positions, and use that money to support their lifestyle. they lose their homes, they cannot borrow money. their company loses money, they lose their jobs. only the dumbest of people cannot see that.
Written by: dreadlocks, 2 Nov 2012 4:43 PM

millions of homes have been foreclosed upon since 2007. that means millions of people have either become homeless, and indigent. that means many more people have no means of livelihood. which means they have no food and shelter. as more houses are foreclosed upon, the welfare rolls have to expand. it is elementary mathematics. so, what is the government to do? let them starve? do you understand the social consequences of leaving people to face potential death from hunger? would you like to live in a society where millions of people have no food? some might decide that they would rather rob you, than to let their children die. the other important thing is that the USA is a signatory to the UN Charter on Human Rights. it is bound , by duty, to take all possible steps to protect its population from starvation, and other undesirable outcomes. Obama did not create the conditions that expanded the welfare rolls. he is only responding to them.

Vacanos....you are spreading another GOP lie my friend! Obama had a filibuster proof majority for only FIVE months.....you can look it up. After that Republicans filibustered and blocked every Job Bill for the American people, including JOBS FOR VETERANS. The only purpose for this was to, in their words, insure the President wasnt re-elected. Should politicians elected by the people follow their own agenda instead of creating jobs to help the people? Absolutely not!

with time, ramapo, you will come to realize that vacanos is an ignorant, know nothing birdbrain, who talks all manner of crap out of his ass, and never can back his remarks with facts. so, the idiot just tries to switch the channel when he gets cornered.you will be lucky if this posting is still in the thread, because when vacanos feels the heat, suddenly things disappear from the thread.

Do you know that Welfare reached a Trillion Dollar in last year budget? That is Obama legacy.

only in your cave does Obama have a legacy. he is still the president, so he does not yet have a legacy. how did you graduate from primary school? better yet:did you?

Taxi Jockey Obama was a small figure a community organizer a bad one as he was in bed with slum landlord Tony Rezco to tackle this country biggest problem the economy. From the get go he started alienating the people from the other party thinking that he will have a majority forever.

When Clinton lost congress 1994 he as former governor understood that he had to work with the other side. And works with the other side he did, signing all the GOP legislation that helped them take over congress for the first time in 60 years in the first place "contract with america."

Bob Woodward's book, The Price of Politics' really gives you a hint of Obama empty suit. Woodward a liberal, in his book shows up how Obama backed on his words to signs a legislation because he wanted an additional 400 Billions in more taxes.

The Taxi Jockey will not understand the meaning of Woodward book example of Obama lack of leadership. Afrocentric believe in color not reality.

In terms of the price tag, Obama has increased federal welfare spending by 32%, from $563.413 billion in FY 2008 to $745.84 billion in FY 2011. Keep in mind that this figure doesn’t include the roughly $1.57 trillion in spending for the three major entitlement programs (Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid).

Obama’s Legacy: $1.03 Trillion in Welfare Spending

In many respects, this country no longer looks like the American Republic that our parents and grandparents experienced. More than ever before, government is destroying private enterprise on the one hand, and offering permanent dependency on the other hand. With all the focus on big bird, binders, and the 47%, the most important figure is the $1.03 trillion – the cost of combined federal and state welfare spending per year.

Total welfare spending has been flirting with the $1 trillion number in recent years, and now according to a new report from the Senate Budget Committee, we have breached that ceiling. The Daily Caller has the details:

you really believe that victor knows what the word conservative means? the only reason why victor posts here is because he is the only person in his circle of friends and acquaintances who can recognize the letters of the alphabet, and that makes him believe that he must be intelligent.

@Josean: Please do NOT hold your breathe to see if Obama does right per your post: "My only beef with Obama is he didn't hang Wall Street thieves by the balls, however with DIM-WIT Rot-mney it WILL NEVER happen, so I will give my vote to Obama to see if he will do right and prosecute the Wall St. Criminals in his second term."

Some of Obama's biggest contributors are on Wall Street!!! He will not prosecute those that help him! In fact, he rewards them.

Obama has no powers to prosecute any body. simple civics. he is the Chief Executive. he has nothing to do with the Judiciary branch. the USA is not a dictatorship. jeez.

ramapo13,

As Dr.Dread has said, few come armed with more facts than I. In fact that's what irritates the PURPLE CLAPPING SEALS and the Neo-cons here at DT, that I cut them no Slack with their Rectally Produced opinions!

But having just joined DT a few days ago, take your time before you form your opinions about others!

Dodd Frank Act was a good move from Obama Administration, we'll have serious monitorings during the trade settlements (via clearing houses and electronic platforms)

Dodd Franck will provide some financial stability by reducing the counterparty and operational risks ( it was time , because it is hell since 2007...) in all the stockmarkets (wall street, London, Tokyo etc) .If we had this act earlier, may be we could have avoid Lehman & Brothers, AIG, Bear Sterns...

Banks will still make up money (millions of dollars or euros) thanks to this Dodd Franck act ,via the OTC Clearing Broker new activity,after each trade within the OTC Derivatives market, a Bank A will see his positions maintained and monitered by a a Bank B ( Clearing Broker) through a clearing house (meaning no more fictious trades). Bank B will charge Bank A for this service and with all the volumes.

We can thank Obama for this blow to Wall street , but also to all the speculators in UK, Hong Kong or Paris

Josean,

Very true Wall street banksters need more serious checks, however Dodd Frank act will bring some regulations during the derivatives settlements process ( the same regulation is implemented the same in Europe, Asia/Pacific capital markets)

The main question is when do an american president will have the b@lls to do something against the FED ? Because this "Federal" bank does not serve the US Gov and people for sure
