Barack Obama’s plan, and the Democratic plan, is to continue to keep minorities a slave to the system through handouts in the form of free housing, food vouchers, substandard public schools and other government freebies. These social policies have addicted the poor and minorities to the benevolence of the government as the provider of their basic needs rather than encouraging them to find a job and work like everyone else.
This country was founded on work ethics. You don’t work, you don’t eat. That made our country strong and independent.
The Democratic Party’s and Obama’s plan is to simply keep people in those communities to live off the largess of those handouts. The basic American principle that made our country strong was that all people have the same opportunity as the rest. The trouble with Obama’s plan is that subscribers to that policy believe that it’s all about equal material possession regardless of the ethos that went towards obtaining them.
Neither the Democratic Party nor Obama do not represent my views or represent me. I believe in the concepts of a strong work ethic, self-reliance and individual merit, and economic ascendancy. That’s why I am voting for John McCain and the Republican Party.

It’s been my experience that has shaped me as a person and shaped my values. I, like the author of this letter, value hard work and I value a job well done.
When I look at the two presidential candidates I see one who was born into privilege and the other who was born into more modest circumstances. Obama has had a harder row to hoe than McCain. He has surmounted more adversity to get where he is today.
I believe his experience will be translated into meaningful policies. Policies that will reward hard work. In his years as a Senator, McCain has only rewarded the well-off. I don’t see that changing if he becomes President.
