DEAR EDITOR:
President Obama's plan to fundamentally transform the United States of America into a non-exceptional, humble and ordinary nation with a world program called "Leadership from Behind" has as a result opened the door for China, Russia and even Brazil to fill the void and assume world leadership.
The administration ran up almost $5 trillion in additional dept over the last four years, and forecasts are for $4 trillion of debt in the new four-year term. Between printing new money and selling debt to foreign countries, our debt service costs will bankrupt the country. The American dollar will be worth very little, and inflation will be rampAnt.
If Americans had done their homework, they would have discovered Obama's leanings toward anti-colonialism and the teachings of his father and his mentors. The result of all this is redistribution of wealth, a decreased standard of living for all and the downsizing of the Untied States of America. Good luck, and God bless America.
