Barack Obama responds to criticism from Hillary Clinton and John McCain, at a town hall meeting in Indiana, and reminds both of them who is really out of touch with the American people. America has been without a truly effective opposition party for over four decades and Obama offers the best opportunity for that in November: Allen L Roland

Here's a recent letter to the editor ( New York Times ) from a typical American ~ Mark Cutler, Riverside, Rhode Island ~ and it touches on common truths;

"I’ll admit it: I am bitter, and most of the people I know are bitter. We feel powerless against a corrupt administration and a press that seems to focus on the shiniest object. Please concentrate on the issues that matter: there are two wars, a tanking economy, people without health care and there’s a Republican running for president who doesn’t seem to know much about the economy and who seems much too comfortable discussing the possibilities of starting up a war with Iran. That scares and angers us more than any so-called misstatement about the mood of the country. From what I see, this is a very weary country, and bitterness is not an outrageous assumption."

So Obama is correct ~ people are very bitter over politics as usual in Washington ~ and here is his four minute response to the politicians who do not want to acknowledge that truth. Click on and watch our next president in action ~
