Zogby: Polling Shows "Small Bump" In Obama Approval Ratings

WILLIAM MORGAN:

Your conviction that Democrats are destroying the Constitution is interesting to me.

You say that the Democrats destroyed positions. What positions do you mean? You also say that they destroyed our Founding Fathers Constitution. I wasn't aware that Democrats are/were doing this. Please forward pertinent research on their destruction of the Constitution by the Democrats. This is frightening! I look forward to your reply.

I am an independent, but greatly disturbed, still, about George W. Bush's and Dick Cheney's disregard for the Constitution, claiming Executive Privilege more times than any other president and vice-president in American History. So you can understand my confusion about where my vote should go!

I am appalled that a war was started with Iraq under disingenuous circumstances, and I am still amazed that when people protested these acts, Bush and Cheney defied the citizens to "try" and do something about it. Does this ring of democracy?

I am angry that over 15 million jobs left this country, and people from other countries have those jobs; those jobs are not coming back. The jobs were sent offshore so that corporations did not have to pay our workers the salaries they demanded, and went to countries with workers who accepted pennies per hour. Profit is the key to corporate success, so you can see why it was important to take those jobs away from us. Obama, in less than two years, is not working fast enough to replace jobs? What kind of jobs? The kind that went to China, India, Southeast Asia?

I am livid that truth in media is totally destroyed. How do we remain a democracy without truth in the media? democracy cannot exist without knowing the truth.! I am also truly frightened by learning that corporations are now legal "citizens of this country, and as citizens, may contribute and vote for any candidate of the corporation's choice. To retain our democracy: 1. We must restore truth to media just as soon as possible; 2. We must move to amend the January 21, 2010 Supreme Court Ruling that lifted the ban on corporate spending for political candidates. This means that corporations have the money and power to ensure their candidates (who will bow to corporate directives) will win.

The general public, particularly the middle class (and this includes the upper middle class) will be powerless in voting for the candidates of THEIR choice. These two rulings, alone, will alter the whole political tone of the U.S.A. Instead of a democracy, we will have a Corporate Oligarchy. This is not what I heard or read in the media; these two statements are documented fact, easily researched. Please give me your thoughts about this dilemma.
