Soap Box

But as I write this, it's Sunday afternoon and I'm sitting in my bus in a motel parking lot in Texarkana reflecting on the choice the country will make this coming Tuesday and the ramifications of what each of those choices would mean, and I don't believe the options have ever been clearer or ever meant more.

What Americans have to decide is whether they believe the policies President Obama has instituted over the last four years will bring the country out of recession, strengthen our military, create millions of the kinds of jobs that will be needed to bring America back to prosperity, stabilize our currency, improve education, reduce the size of government, deal with immigration, heal the wounds of racial division, solve our energy dependence and restore respect for the USA around the world.

Is the borrowing and spending of foreign money and the piling up of debt we can't even pay the interest on, really going to dig America out of the deep fiscal ditch we're in?

Will the exponential growing of government solve the unemployment problem?

Will investing billions of dollars of taxpayer's money into alternative energy companies that continue to fail ever meet America's energy needs?

Will more suffocating regulations on America's businesses really invigorate industry and revive manufacturing?

Can a bureaucracy administer healthcare better than medical professionals, and when citizens find out what's really in Obamacare and it's ramifications, will the system be so badly damaged that healthcare will suffer for decades to come?

Is passing on a reliable supply of oil by way of the Keystone Pipeline a really smart thing to do?

Does raising taxes on productive people actually discourage investment, slow growth and cause the transfer of wealth out of the country?

Is passing trillions of dollars of debt on to our children and grandchildren really what America wants to do?

Does this nation want to hand over our sovereignty to the United Nations?

How effective have Obama's policies been in the last four years and would four more years of the same make things better or worse?

These and many more questions should be going through a voter's mind before they push that final button on the voting machine.

This one really is for all the marbles, the future of every generation that follows us and for the kind of America we want to live in.

Think about it.

What do you think?

Pray for our troops, and for our country.

God Bless America
