After eight years of buffoonery and disastrous policies, it is time to elect Barack Obama.

After eight years of unilateral aggression and fear-mongering, it is time to elect Barack Obama.

After eight years of stumbling, bumbling domestic and foreign policy, it is time to elect Barack Obama.

After eight years of deception and corruption, it is time to elect Barack Obama.

After eight years of corporate pandering and CEO wallet-padding, it is time to elect Barack Obama.

After eight years of disenfranchising the poor and enriching the wealthy, it is time to elect Barack Obama.

After eight years of turning a blind eye to humanitarian crises and waging unjust wars, it is time to elect Barack Obama.

After eight years of greed masked as Reaganomics it is time to elect Barack Obama.

After eight years of the Bush Doctrine: It is time to elect Barack Obama.

Oh Captain! My Captain!

The masses are waiting--

Our fight is nearly done--

The night is closing upon us--

Lead us into the light.

Oh Captain! My Captain!
