It will also help common people to share their views and whatever they think should be done by the new government to put the country back on the track to progress.
The home page of Obama’s new website has a timer on the top showing how many days before Obama takes his oath as the new president. It also shows a quote from Obama that reads “Today we begin in earnest the work of making sure that the world we leave our children is just a little bit better than the one we inhabit today.”. It also invites Citizens to share their ideas and visions with the following text - “The story of the campaign and this historic moment has been your story.

I am a disabled veteran and have been stripped of retirement benefits but I have 20+ years of servie in the U.S. Marines Corp. I fought for benefits and have been told that if I try to use benefits I will be arrested. I worked with Sen. Diane Feinsteins office and won my benfits back. After the Senator office stopped the investigation and the Marines reinstated my benefits they again stopped the benefits again. When I contacted the Marine Retirement Branch the Assistant to the OIC in charge sdreamed at me that they know what they are doing and hung up on me. I am a cancer survivor. 30% disabled from the VA the Marines reduced rating to 10% removed my retirement and said I was 3 months short of 20 years. Presidnet Elect Obama I need your help please. I only want what I earned. I did not support this war and from the beginning voice that opinion. It appears they did reach out to get me. Its sad that after 20 years the worse enemy I would face would be my own country.

Larry,
Thanks for stopping by and taking time to leave a comment here. First of all, let me thank you and others in uniform for your service.
We all know that veterans in this country are not receiving the help that they deserve. The VA is in a mess and needs an urgent rehaul from top to bottom. We can only hope that President elect Obama does something about this and makes sure that veterans are treated properly.

Happy Thanksgiving
I was inspired by your and Michele’s vision,wisdom and practicality on the Barbara Walters interview last night. Thank you.
I thought you would appreciate this quote by Abraham Lincoln if you don’t already know it.
“We have been the recipients of the choicest bounties of heaven; we have been preserved these many years in peace and prosperity; we have grown in numbers, wealth and power as no other nation has ever grown.
But we have forgotten God. We have forgotten the gracious hand, which preserved us in peace and multiplied and enriched and strengthened us, and we have vainly imagined, in the deceitfulness of our hearts, that all these blessings were produced by some superior wisdom and virtue of our own. Intoxicated with unbroken success, we have become too self-sufficient to feel the necessity of redeeming and preserving grace, too proud to pray to the God that made us. “

Abolish Medical Fascism - Protect Health Freedom
Leaders in Washington have been working to restrict our access to dietary supplements - including the safe, effective, and affordable vitamins, minerals, and herbs you depend on for your health. Your hard-won natural health freedoms as guaranteed by the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA) of 1994 have come under attack by the political allies of pharmaceutical interest groups!”
The FDA - Who Do They Really Protect? The US Food and Drug Administration “partner” of the pharmaceutical industry
The percentage of Americans attracted to natural healing methods is growing and threatens the economic monopoly of Big Medicine, the AMA-FDA-Pharmacy cartel, which has for many years dictated health care approaches used in the USA with an iron fist. This appears to be the major reason for the intensification of the FDA’s vicious and murderous war against the natural health movement.
If the AMA dislikes a particular health care approach, they work to banish such methods within hospitals, and to suspend the medical licenses of any doctor who employs them. They have often been able to rely upon state licensing boards and legislatures, and even the US Congress, to pass laws outlawing natural healing methods and the non-MD practitioner (such as midwives, herbalists or acupuncturists). Failing here, the AMA and friends in the drug industry have relied upon their allies in the FDA to aggressively assault the advocates of natural treatment methods. http://www.shirleys-wellness-cafe.com
