3. Dear Mr President -
Edited on Mon Sep-07-09 08:48 PM by truedelphi
Why do you keep insisting on being all bipartisan? If you really wanted to be THAT bipartisan, why didn't you simply concede during the early morning hours of Nov 5th 2008. You should have bravely stood before the American people and said, "I am a very conciliatory person, so conciliatory that I cannot bear the pain of keeping Mr McCain out of the positions that he and Sarah Palin sought. They worked very hard, and although my people worked hard also, I don't feel like inflicting this amount of pain on the 38% of all Americans that wanted McCain/Palin.

So to assuage their grief, I step aside. Undoubtedly this means that Director Gates will remain in his position as Secretary of Defense, and that troops will remain in Iraq and Afghanistan for a long time to come. Undoubtedly this means that the investigation of Cheney/Bush for their war crimes will be cast aside. Undoubtedly this means that there will not be anything like Single Payer Universal Health Care, even though this plan has the support of some seventy five percent plus of the nation's populace.

Anyway by my remaining President - I create too much division. And the nation cannot endure that.

Far better to concede, even though I was victorious, than force the Republicans to figure out how to act even crazier than they were during the Cheney/Bush years.

Anyway, thank you for your vote, if you were someone who voted for me. And if you were NOT someone who voted for me, please forgive me for entering this race against McCain and Sarah Palin. May God bless America as they rule the nation and bring her away from the awful policies of the last eight years.
