Politically I am far left of the President.  Every day I receive emails from MoveOn.org, a group that I generally agree with.  Usually the emails are about atrocities that Republicans have committed.  Recently they have been targeting the President.

I dream of an America with universal health care, excellent education for all and a Peace Corps larger than its military.

However, the President governs ALL Americans.  His job is to compromise.  And I think he's doing a damn good job at that.

As of now Obama proudly has my vote and my support.
