President Obama will NOT be re-elected if he agrees to cuts in Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security. He will have done more damage to the Democratic Party and all it stands for than any previous administration. I hope that Democratic lawmakers in Washington stand up for the big three entitlement programs and refuse to vote for them. AMERICA IS NOT BROKE. The lie being propagated by the Republicans is hogwash. 400 Americans hold more wealth than half of all Americans combined. 18,000 corporations have a fake address at a four story building in the Cayman Islands that allows them to pay no taxes, to the tune of lost revenue of $100 billion per year. So here is my solution to the so-called debt crisis (and there is no crisis...it's all a fabrication of the conservatives to get rid of the social safety net and to find a way to destroy President Obama): 1. Raise taxes on corporations and the super rich. America provides them with plenty of services, but they refuse to return the favor and pay their fair share of taxes. 2. Close the tax loopholes that allow those 18,000 companies to avoid paying that $100 billion in taxes. 3. Stop paying federal subsidies to oil and gas companies that make HUGE profits without government help, thank you. 4. End the unfunded and costly misadventures in the Middle East. I guarantee that if these four measures are followed that you could recover TRILLIONS of dollars of revenue that would balance the budget in a heartbeat. Please, everyone, contact the White House NOW and demand NO cuts to entitlement programs. As Ed Schulz says in the video above, this is a generational issue. If the conservatives are successful in convincing Obama to cut the Big Three social programs in return for maybe some little concessions from them to close a few tax loopholes, then Obama will not be re-elected. Polls have shown that four swing states, Missouri, Ohio, Montana and Minnesota overwhelmingly oppose cuts to Social Security:

In order to reduce the national debt, would you support or oppose cutting spending on Social Security, which is the retirement program for the elderly?

Ohio: 16% support, 80% oppose
Missouri: 17% support, 76% oppose
Montana: 20% support, 76% oppose
Minnesota: 23% support, 72% oppose

The American People have spoken. No cuts to Social Security, Medicaid and Medicare. I certainly hope that the White House is listening. They'd better be, or else if Obama agrees to go against the will of the people, he's going to find himself easily defeated in the next Presidential election cycle. Mr. President, listen up: you've been warned.
