I have been asked this question many times, especially by those who know about my plans to emigrate to the United States. Up until this point I have only blogged about South African politics but since America will be my new home very soon, I’ve decided to start looking into, and sharing some of my thoughts on the Obama administration.
Firstly I would like to make a very clear statement about my thoughts on Racism. I am not a racist, racism is wrong and primitive! I do hate the African National Congress political party of South Africa but that does not mean that I am a racist. I don’t hate them because they are black. I hate them because they are stupid and they are fucking up this beautiful country. If I was a racist I would not plan to move to America which now also has a black president. The color of your skin means nothing! Your intellect however means a lot. With that said, here are my thoughts on the Obama administration:
I think that Obama is doing a great job at making America a better place. Many have raised concern about Obama saying that he is wasting government money, focussing on the wrong areas and making too many changes. Change is exactly what America needs! Obama is doing the right thing by passing new bills for improved health care, transportation, education, and pretty much everything else. Sure it’s going to take a while before we see the after-effects of these changes but rest assured they will be pleasant. People generally fight change because not only does it require them to move away from their comfort zone but they also reject the unfamiliar. Without change America would still be stuck, fucked and slowly losing grip on the general situation.
Since the beginning of this year I have been following the White House blog religiously in order to keep an eye on what’s been happening in American politics. I can honestly say that if you do not like or approve of what the Obama Administration is doing then you should be living in the third world, ruled by a conservative, religious dictator. I think that Obama is doing a great job and I cannot wait to be a proud American Citizen!
So there you have it, my quick thoughts on the Obama Administration. If you would like to debate this topic, or if you have any questions regarding my thoughts on specific bills and changes in America please leave your comments below…
