I have been watching particularly the Democratic Debates, have checked a couple of republican debates, but I believe they have no chance to win, well one slight chance, if Hillary should win, then maybe they have a 49% chance of winning out over Hillary. Well first off,we surely need some real change, and definitely new Leadership, real Leadership in this country and we need it bad. Well to me a Leader is one who can not only incite the people to really want change, and of course Leadership, that not only will talk about the problems facing America today, but who will also at the very least give us an Outline of how he will bring about this change, in each area. As usual all I am hearing are soundbites, little tidbits of words we want to hear; like we will cut taxes, how, and for whom, how will they give us Nat'l Health Care, how will they really end the War in Irag, so the region does not go totally out of control, and we find ourselves in an all out Islamic
War? If they just cut taxes there will not be enough money to balance the budget, eliminate the huge deficit which I am sure will be at least 11 or 12 Trillion Dollars by the time Bush leaves office. There will not be enough money to fix the crumbling Infrastructure, which is estimated now will cost from 15 to 17 Trillion dollars. There will not be money to get all the money back that Bush stole from the S.S. Fund, there will not be enough money to fund needed Social programs, many which were cut, or eliminated under Bush. There will not be enough money to get us ready for the Pandemic-of Bird Flu,which is coming-(there have already been at least 185 human deaths,and a number of mammal deaths too; since it is mutating, it is maybe 1 or 2 jumps away from becoming a full blown human Pandemic, which can hit us at any time. It is extimated if when it hits the U.S., there will be a minimum of 50 Million deaths, this is only from the disease itself. This does not count those that will die from either the heat or cold, unable to pay or even obtain the fuel they need, or will starve to death, unable to buy or even find food. Therefore this total will probably be at least 100 Million, also cattle, horses, pets will die too, as well as most animal life, possibly excluding a lot of insects. There could also be more deaths due to other diseases related to the rotting bodies, which will all have to be burned, if there people to actually burn them in mass graves. There is no vacccine, and Temaflu does not work, as a cure at all, it merely temporarily retards the Bird Flu effects, so we need a Vaccine for All, that is over 200 Million doses for all of us. It will take at least 6 mos. to a year to make that many doese, even if all the drug companies go to work on it. So there you have wonderful news, if you doubt how bad this realy is, take a look at the program on the Science channel, Pandemic:Bird Flu, done in 2007; it will scare the pants off you. Getting back to the Presidential debates, only hearing soundbits so far, if we are really looking for a "NEW" Leader for this country, shouldn't he or she, have at least an Outline of how they will change things, or implement them, not just empty promises, as we have gotten for over 35 years/more? How will they attack the problem of Global Warming and Pollution, and pay for these things, also if they cut taxes, or even leave them as it it? It can't be done,at least 25-30 Trillion dollars will be needed to attack all these problems. There is I am sure at least 5% Trillion we can 'find', this is money currently being wasted on pork barrel projects, the War in Irag, Waste in the Medicare and Medicade systems, as well as out and out rip-offs there too. What will give us the money this country needs to get these things done, is a Flat Tax System, which puts the burdon on the Rich, who have too much money. I am talking mainly about the people who make 2,5, 10,15, 25, 50, or even a 100 Million dollars a yr. or more. They all made this money off the backs of the working glass, or because they took jobs away from them. These also include sports figures, actors and actresses, music stars and the like. If it weren't for the "working class", none of them would be this rich, it is time they carried the load they should be. On average, the working man/woman pays about 23% of there earnings to Taxes, the Rich person pays less than 15%, that is an unjust disparity. These earnings should include those homes, planes, boats, vacations, stock options etc. that the rich peple get, esp. the Executive officers, as part payment of their salery; all these things need to be Taxed by the gov't, Federal and State. Those that try to hide their money in some offshore accounts, will not only be charged with Fraud,and Tax Evasion, but also treason,we can also bring pressure to bear, with the terrorist act, afterall, why are they hiding their money? By doing all this and telling them The Federal gov't will do this, that will stop that from happening. So how about starting pressing these Candidates for real answers as to how they will fix, or correct or Change things that are wrong now, like the Patriot Act,which has removed a lot of our Constitutional rights, or wasting Billions of taxpayers dollars on War, or Tax breaks for the rich, or Oil companies and the like. We have a real chance here for Change, but we Need Real Change, not just talk, we need Real Leadership. We need Real Solutions to America's Problems and we need them fast. I want to know who has those solutions and answers, that is the person we need to lead us one with a real Plan for this Country. A leader who will make us the Greatest Nation in the world once again. I am one who will gladly back this person, and I sure do hope, that this election will give us that Leader....we are running out of time quickly... I am trying my best to provide answers, solutions, and to ask the right questions, all to make all of us thing, and act. Thank You. John M. Roberts aka the Lone Wolf
