Election Day Nears!

Election day nears and Americans still do not have a proper candidate to vote for in this election.  President Obama is hated amongst Republicans. Some even going as far as calling him the Antichrist, and an abomination. Romney is viewed as a rich stiff red neck that is completely out of touch with what average Americans want in a president. Even though he might be a good money manager, liberals still view Romney as a guy who is going to actually take away many standard freedoms, that most Americans take for granted. Most Democrats I know do not want Romney as a president just for that reason alone.

Lets take the time to remember that there is another choice in this election besides the 2 major dominating parties.  There are 4 other parties currently running in this election! This is exciting. This is what makes America great! Top candidates for each party are as follows, Gary Johnson with the Libertarian party, Jill Stein with the Green Party, Virgil Goode with the Constitution Party, and Rocky Anderson with the Justice Party. De Santos Blog has acquired video of the 3rd party candidates debating.

I'm still pulling for my sweet heart Jill Stein! Lets hope she gathers enough votes to win!

My biggest concerns as a journalist is, Freedom Of Speech, Free Love, The War On Terror and of course the Economy. Lets hope and pray that Americans will vote for the right candidate in the next few days.

Obama Slams Romney In 3rd And Final Presidential Debates!

Barack Obama came out ahead of Mitt Romney in the 3rd Presidential Debates of 2012. Both of the candidates, gave their idea's for how to fix Americas foreign policy. Obama scored some major points when he remarked how Romney didn't know that we actually have air craft carriers that we land planes on. This was a funny moment for me during the debate. It seemed that after that comment Governor Romney couldn't make a come back. Either way, as a journalist and commentator I will not be voting for either candidate come November. They both seem like the wrong choice for the country!

Barack Obama and Mitt Romney Faced Off Last Night!!

Barack Obama and Mitt Romney faced off last night in the 2nd presidential debate of 2012. Which candidate did the best? Barack Obama made a lot of good points about the economy, health care and really slammed Romney on outsourcing, and made him look like a two timing hypocrite who was shipping jobs overseas. However Romney really stood his ground and even went as far as to tell the presumptive Obama to sit down. Ouch... who would have thought this election could get any nastier then it already was. If I had to judge last nights debate I would say that Obama obviously Won. The 3rd and final debate will be held on Monday October 22, 2012, at 9pm eastern time 6pm pacific standard time.

 keep up to date with De Santos blog for more of my political comments and stay tuned to the 2012 Presidential debates.

The Vice Presidential Debates Are On Tonight, We Will be Watching Closely!

The first and only vice presidential debate between Vice President Joe Biden and Congressman Paul Ryan is set for 9 p.m. Eastern Time 6 p.m. Pacific Standard Time Tonight.  I would like to advise my readers that I still believe that these candidates are in fact Presumptive, All 4 of them, both Romney and the Obama campaign. I like to call them Oxymoron and chiefs. That is because both sides make no sense in their proposed ideals for leading the nation. Romney In fact comes off as a big hypocrite because he is willing to raise taxes. Fox news or I like to call them Junk News now..(cause that's all you see on Fox News) has been praising Romney for winning the first debate on October 3rd, when in fact Romney had only one good moment that looked remotely presidential. Which was when he mentioned about saving small businesses. 

Lets see if the Vice Presidential debate is any better. Most likely it wont be any better because they are all presumptive candidates anyway! Either way stay tuned to De Santos Blog for more info on the debates as it happens.

U.S. Presidential Debate 2012: Mitt Romney and President Obama debate

Mitt Romney and Presumptive President Obama are debating tonight.. Which one will most Americans vote for come November! On the economy Mitt Romney, makes some good points about small businesses in America. For small business owners taxes are extremely high in some parts of the nation. Obama counters with a great idea, stop tax breaks for companies shipping jobs over seas.

Citizens must make a choice by November. When both candidates will be on the voting ballot. Romney a Mormon and Ultra Conservative is basically for big business, against free love, and against Obama care, that means if you want to talk to or go out with the Romney camp.. you have to have money and lots of it!!

Obama on the other hand is for free love, free speech, and of course his massive Obama health care bill. 

Republicans have been known to prostitute themselves for money. This is getting ridiculous! Is Romney this type? Do we need this type of candidate now after hiring the first ever black president? I wonder which candidate will be the best for America?

Stay tuned to De Santos Blog and the 2012 Presidential debates!

U.S. Economy Lacks Optimism.

One thing the U.S. economy lacks right now is optimism. Americans lack the disposition to look on the more favorable side of circumstances. More and more Americans are saving up for school, college, books, and more worldly contrivances. Too afraid to invest here in America. What Americans are looking for is not being produced here in the U.S.A..

Elected officials are so exhilarated to take their business elsewhere that you wonder if they ever notice that there is a problem with the economy.  New Jobs numbers show that the U.S. Economy has not grown in any significant manner. These Numbers are dismal at best.  Non-farm payroll is still below average at (+80,000).  The unemployment rate is unchanged at a staggering 8.2 %. This is according to the U.S. Bureau Of Labor Statistics as of June 2012.

The number of unemployed Americans is a whopping 12.7 million . This number is unchanged in the last few months. The unemployment rate for African Americans has gone up since last month its now 14.4 %, rates for adult men where 7.8 % and for adult women 7.4 %. Teenagers came in at 23.7 % unemployment rate. Whites received 7.4 % while Hispanics got 11.0 % unemployment rate. These statistics showed little or no change. The unemployment rate for Asians was 6.3 % (not adjusted seasonally) in June.

According to the Bureau Of Labor Statistics the number of long-term unemployed (Americans without a job for 27 weeks or longer) was unchanged at 5.4 million Americans in June 2012.  The number of part time workers trying to find work was 8.2 million and remains unchanged. In June 2.5 million Americans were marginally attached to the labor force, down from 2.7 million a year earlier. These numbers depict the troubled state of the economy.

Investors lack the confidence and optimism that is needed to get the job numbers higher. However since I'm and optimistic guy. Lets take a look at this from another angle. Lets say investors do have confidence in the U.S. economy. What is clearly lacking is certainty which then makes room for ambiguity to take over! This doubtful and uncertain nature is the root of America's economic problems.

Could it be high taxes that are to blame for the struggling U.S. economy. According to Fox News.com high taxes are to blame for the low job numbers and the sagging U.S. economy. Sometimes I tend to side with this theory, however we all know what happens when we cut taxes and spending, and ship jobs over seas. Other programs start to fall apart! Job security falters, unemployment rises, war becomes the agenda! All of these factors need to be considered.

Now I'm not a math genius here.. but if the unemployment rate is 8.2 % and the number of Americans that are trying to get part time work is 8.2 million. Is there a direct connection here? Could this mean that more and more Americans can only acquire part time work. Where is this capitalist utopia that former President Bush and current "Presumptive" President Obama promised us?

I am still optimistic about the U.S. economy however. All it takes is the right balance of optimism and certainty to pull us all through.

Freedom Of Speech Is Under Attack!

Freedom of speech in America is under attack! Remember the days of Internet chat? Remember the days of Yahoo Messenger and yahoo games. What happened to Yahoo? Where did that all go! Freedom of speech in this country is pretty much finished. I mean for Christ sake I cant even type in more then 4 words after a game of Call of duty modern warfare 2 without someone calling me the N Word. Lets not even mention server choice. All of these basic freedoms are coming under attack!

Are you interested in finding a date on the Internet or on a social media website? Well think again! Its all turning into pay sites! Or in terms of social media overly cumbersome and always changing! That's the problem with social media sites! Even American socialism doesn't work when it comes to freedom of speech! Because its inherently Nazi.

Freedom of speech is turning into a thing of the past. Its almost like we are living in a dictatorship. Especially in America. America is in Collapse because of Mass Consumerism and the sharp decline of the dollar. Too many people are trying to sell out when it comes to keeping freedom of speech Free! It seems like the Mentality these days is to make a fast buck without thinking about personal freedoms! There are too many sites right now that are selling out to Mass Consumerism and the selling of what we know as Freedom Of Speech.

Now lets dig a little deeper.. is Freedom Of Speech actually free? Cause of course you have to pay a price for freedom. It all equates to paying for freedom. Is this the message we want! What kind of a country is this turning into? I don't want to have to pay for freedom and still be called the N word! I already know I'm free.. why should I have to pay for it! I think Communists already paid for it at the end of WW2! God Bless them! The average citizen shouldn't have to worry about freedom of speech issues in term's of combat. yes 9/11 was the end of American Nazism. That day everyone found out America had turned into the police of the world!

That's a huge pill to swallow for a lot of Americans.

America can not be free and at the same time charge for the very basic freedoms to talk to one another. Freedom doesn't work that way! Especially after such a huge time share event such as 9/11! These commanders are crazy they need to take their pills! Their crazy!

It's time for President Oxymoron to take a stand. Hopefully something good will start happening!
