Dem. President & Congress


I hate discussing politics but since this an assignment I have to complete let me comply. There is no quick fix to the pestilineal problems that America's society is enduring right now. However, being that America is now under a new system of governance with both a Democratic President and Congress there is much to think about. Could this also mean too much government?

I do not think it has so much to do with the same party President and senate. I think it's Obama's appeal to both parties that will make a difference, if any.I hope there will be more money for schools because the youth will need this for OUR future. The next four years will definitely be challenging for us all. Having a Democrat President and senate does not mean that the Congress will support the President. The Republicans also have the liberty to stop the Democrats from passing certain laws because senate does not have 2/3 votes to do as they like.

These were the same senate and President who were with President Clinton and they created a system that caused all this financial crisis now. I figure also that a lot of 'big' government will be getting even more involved in state government.

Also I think many people will stop saving, if they have not yet done so. In previous years American saved up to 12% of their money over year. This changed when Clinton took over; and this may happen again in the next four years.

My prayer is that it all work out for the benefit of us all.(Even though we are expected to separate church from State: We will pray in secret). When everything on earth fail, we have to turn a spirit. What's your take? I understand that the spirit may not be able to help us during these four years but... it will worth a try.

To end I think both Congress and President will work to stimulate the economy but it dos not mean that all is well because they are of the same party (majority in Congress). Let's see...
