Reader Supports Romney And Ryan

Editor, The Herald:

In a few days we will elect a President and Vice President for the next 4 years. This is the most serious and important election of my life. We have seen and felt the effects of the false promises of the last four years. Will you fall victim to the easily made promises for the next four years? Our poverty rate and government dependency, loss of jobs, etc. are the highest on record and our national debt has increased by $6 trillion in four years and if the present President goes back into office the prediction is another $4 trillion plus dollars.

I am not easily swayed by the Democrat-leaning in liberal media that is so forgiving towards the President, the false ads and individual statements, such as the editor of The Farmville Herald to refer to quotes in the Bible to justify his endorsement and support of President Obama and to vote for President Obama. Can you visualize if for whatever reason Obama, if elected, would become incapacitated, we will have Vice President Joe Biden as President. I am a Christian and believe in my Bible without question or doubt. I would consider myself a hypocrite if I were to endorse or subscribe in any manner to a President, Vice President or anyone who openly supports homosexuality, gay marriage with the same benefits as a legally married couple. President Obama and Vice President Biden both endorse and verbally support same sex marriage. The Bible is very plain and clear and it teaches against such. The former pastor and mentor of Obama, Jeremiah Wright, does not say God bless America, but “God damn America”. I realize the countries that are not friendly to the US, support President Obama because they feel he is the weaker and can be manipulated to their advantage. I will now close with this thought: that we should elect a President with an open agenda to work toward a strong economic recovery and relieve the entitlement programs. We should maintain a strong home security force and our military strength so strong that no nation would dare challenge us. I truly believe that Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan can best accomplish these goals and work toward reducing the great debt our country is placing on future generations. At present, to erase our national debt every man woman and child would need to pay $50,000 each. Every dollar the government now spends, .30 to .40 cents is borrowed money. I remain a product from the greatest generation.
