[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, what concerns you about Obama?  [/quote]

Admittedly now, I don't know every political issue through and through. So I might show some of my ignorance here. I'm not a fan of his green initiatives. I'm not necessarily one of those "There's no such thing as global warming!" people and I do think we need to do something about the environment. The green initiatives seem to just have been huge wastes of time and resources though, with minimal benefits. I think he made some really poor choices with his cabinet- specifically, Eric Holder. Was the war in Libya necessary? Does he cater too much to Israel? (Full disclosure: I need to make it a point to read up more about Israel and our position with them and how this affects our relationships with other countries. Same with the UN. I know way too little about these issues.) Selfishly, I know my family will personally be negatively affected by his tax plan. That's not a deal breaker for me, it just sucks. I worry that he will raise taxes but will not cut enough in terms of spending to make much of a difference, so that we'll be swimming in debt (thanks to the cost of war and Obamacare) AND paying high taxes. I took a test at isidewith.com and it told me I side most with Jill Stein. Socially, I'm liberal. Legalize gay marriage, legalize marijuana, all of that's cool. Fiscally, I think I'm a little more conservative. [/quote]
