It's a shame all the great Democratic Presidents after cleaning up their Republican counterparts mess have to be voted in AGAIN to do the SAME job.
When will the citizenry just vote Democrat.

When I graduated from high school it was relatively easy to get a job, that would pay enough to raise a family on one income. And, buy a home and a new car every few years. The GI bill was available for veterans to get a good education if they so desired. That was the legacy of FDR and the progressive period. We built the interstate highway system. And, put a man on the moon.

Then we were told that government was the problem. And, that we needed to cut taxes on the wealthy to insure our prosperity. That we needed to let industry self-regulate. And, that the offshoring of manufacturing jobs just mean we needed to adapt to the new "service economy". That later became the "information economy". And, that government interference was just evil socialism.

Most of you grew up in the same era. Look around you, things have changed and if you think they have got better your living in denial. Sure the Romney's of this world have never done better. But, for everyone else, particularly the unskilled it's often a life of poverty and homelessness. Or at best working more than one low paying job with not much prospect for the future. Us old geezers on pensions and SS should count ourselves lucky that we aren't starting out today.

Obama isn't responsible for this. Particularly when any chance of a new "New Deal" has been thwarted by opposition from the GOP serving their wealthy and corporate masters.

According to statscan, 19.1 % of Canadians are visible minorities. I rounded that off to 20%.
