Obama Must Get Running Start, Confront Financial Crisis, Wars

Barack Obama won't have time to catch his breath.

Having won the longest election in U.S. history, toppling two formidable rivals and succeeding in his improbable quest to become the first African-American president, he will immediately begin the arduous work of turning campaign promises into a viable agenda, aides said.

How can Obama help get us out of this CRISIS?


An Answer: HOMEOWNER Walk Aways and bankruptcies are Feeding the banks bad loans which are in turn wiping out the Banks ability to loan!

We do not need another stimulus as that had little effect!

Banks have a choice get 45% to 60% or get next to nothing!

But giving Homeowners a low interest loan to replace a 10% to 15% loan will give people lots of money to spend and stimulate the economy for months to come!

The only way to end this CRISIS is to stop the hemorrhaging of Home Mortgage Walk-Aways!

Every day we wait it gets worse as people walk and homes depreciate!

The best stimulus package is to solve that FIRST!

Technology can also help remove the Mortgage Company layer with automated loans from Fannie and Freddie and provide lower rates to stabilize the housing market!

So pleased Obama is moving FAST!

In the meantime Bush is doing more damage:

1. Signing 90 directives to deregulate many more industries!
2. Mismanaging the $850 Billion Bailout!
3. Not taking advantage of Iraq wanting us out NOW!
4. Not regulating Wall Street and its "TRICKS' that they play every single day, especially Goldman Sacks!

I am sure BUSH can do even more damage in 75 days!

Obama's team must take optimal control of these and other issues and nullify the Bush team's actions for the sake of AMERICA's FUTURE.

Plouffe and Axelrod has helped Obama rewrite the book on campaigning, on divided politics, and on the new age of community organizing utilizing technology like the internet and text messaging, and has helped knock down racial, cultural, and religious barriers.

This is HUGE.

He has ALREADY BUILT an Institution for CHANGE of all types!

Barack Obama has built the most incredible campaign organization in history. So why not KEEP IT and Empower it for "CHANGE" that improves America and Americans' lives. Rename it the "YES WE CAN" organization!

"YesWeCan" should become the best Community Service Implementation Program in History!

It will be a powerful tool in bringing about improvements in peoples lives by serving people in need and making sure no one slips through the cracks.

And it can even be used to bring about positive changes in "Business and Government."

Please keep your "YES We CAN" Organization and find ways to continue with "Not for Profit" funding!
