    It's funny that you think the economy is going to get much better.

    The jobs are gone. They've all gone overseas. No such thing as careers anymore. You can either join a labor union or you can get an entry level service/sales position.

    Sounds pretty hopeless, Ridge. With that perspective, this test just won't work for you. I designed it for folks who think theres's still hope left that the state of things in this country have the potential to get better.

    There is no hope when your two options are both going to do whatever they can to make a buck at your expense.

    Still Romney. Plenty of seriously important reasons to get the Big O out! However, we will be fighting for gun rights no matter who the president is, so we would fight for those rights. But, if there isn't a country left or the Constitution is completely thrown out there won't be much to fight for.

    Neither of the two realistic options in November are exactly palatable, regardless of which positions you switch.

    I'd prefer not to have another four years of Obama. Romney hasn't indicated he has one single idea other than not being Obama (not altogether bad, but is this really the best the GOP has to offer?!).

    Agreed. Also when he acts like a douchebag and says stupid ass things like a hyper conservative Joe Biden.

    Let me answer your question with a question:

    Would you rather lose your 2A rights or the country?

    Given Obozo's performance the last 3 1/2 years it is clear he does not hold America's being a global power economically, militarily, spiritually or any other way in high regards.
    Four more years of his policies and this country will be reduced to a has been. We will become Greece/Italy.
    Is that worth keeping the 2A rights of individuals as we know?
    Even though Romney is far from a Reaganesque individual I believe he has the best interest of the country in mind.
    Become the global example that we once were and sacrifice traditional 2A or become a second rate country and keep the 2a?

    Crummy choice to make.
    The most important thing to be learned from those who demand "Equality For All" is that all are not equal...

    Bravo, BP, you've framed the question perfectly. Luckily, it's a choice we don't really have to make, but there is a point to this thread.

    Our country is at a crossroad. Too many voters are prioritizing smaller personal pet issues that benefit them, over the big picture issues that will determine the fate of the country. If the country falls, all the personal pet issues will suffer and fall along with it.

    This thread was meant to give us a taste of having to sacrifice and put country first, in front of self. It's a choice many are going to have to face and take the high road on if we're to save ourselves. Especially true when half the country is not paying taxes, becoming more and more dependent on the crumbs thrown to them by a government seeking to enslave them.

    Bert,

    I'm not following well, this may need to be explained in-person when I drop off the next barrel to be threaded...my mind is slow like that.

    I reduced the question to its most basic terms (in my mind) to what he was asking:
    Keep 2A and continue the downward spiral we are in with BHO at the helm.
    Sacrifice 2A and at least have a chance to pull the country out of the swirly pool we are floating in with Romney holding the reins.

    Like I said, crummy choice.
