Bubby is Just Warming Up!

Bubby is a 64 year old baby boomer who has a lot to say. There are just so many issues at this time in our wonderful country, which should be dealt with pertaining to and about how this country is or isn't doing. What Bubby feels needs to happen sooner verses later is take action with the easy ones and clear them out of the path of real progress. In this moment in time to improve the general bad behavior and poor condition of the financial, health care and social activities in this country seems imperative.

I truly believe if my generation would work and think together, we definitely could encourage our children and theirs to follow. As good American citizens we could try to re-establish some of the basic traditions of family we were taught growing up. Bring back some of the basic respect and regard we once held for one another. Go back and remember life in Philadelphia fifty years ago, keeping all the progress that has improved and enriched our lives. This could once again be a stronger and better balanced nation. The citizens of the United States of America must work together and create order with our new President, he needs our help.

When I was just a little girl both of my Bubby's had pictures of the President of the United States of America hanging in the house. I was raised to appreciate and hold with extraordinary pride the fact that I was born in the country. My Bubby's were not and they always told me what a lucky girl I was to be an American and I always agreed. We live in a place where anything is possible, where freedom truly rings. I love my country and hold respect for my President. I do not have to think he is right everyday, but, he is and was elected by the people and because of that fact he deserves our respect.

I am very disappointed by anyone who just arbitrarily shoots down a proposed idea due to a party affiliation. When we elect a Congressman or a Senator, yes I know they run on a party ticket but once elected they have a job to represent all the people. You don't have to agree with all the people and yes our elected officials have a job to do, but, it is really not about just what they want it is more about what we need them to do. Being arbitrary and ignorant by just saying "no" because of a party line is not and does not serve the people being represented. This behavior offends me, that is why I am looking for candidates Bubby can believe in. I have simple and direct questions to ask, all I want is the same type of answer.

I am getting my ducks lined up, stay tuned things could get very interesting. Bubby has been quiet for a long time now. My active days as Bubby 4 Obama are just about to start!
