> Petition Letter To President Barack Obama:

Dear President Barack Obama;

Please help save America now by engaging your Campaign 2008 promise to rebuild America's deteriorating infrastructure, before it actually becomes too late!

We realize that Healthcare Reform and all other types of legislation will be made useless, without a solid U.S. economic foundation in our nation's future.
 
Please engage and expedite America's state-to-state reconstruction programs now, because Americans are just standing idle in long unemployment lines waiting!

Please read the following information for a further detailed explanation, and then please forward a copy of this petition to the U.S. Congress.

Thank you for your attention concerning this extremely critical matter!

Sincerely,  We the undersigned.

***************************************************

> We the undersigned agree:

Some people argue that Healthcare Reform must come first, but if the U.S. has no solid economic foundation to rely upon, then everything including Healthcare would become bankrupt in the very near future!

Some people argue that rebuilding the United States infrastructure, as President Barack Obama has already promised in Campaign 2008, would bankrupt America . . . 

This is only true if we wait too much longer to off-set the U.S. Housing Market economic collapse, because there is only one conceivable avenue to follow:

Generate massive and immediate employment, manufacturing, and trade increases by immediately engaging the U.S. state-to-state infrastructure reconstruction programs now!!!

* (Note: This should have been initiated several years ago, and of course in the context of creating Alternative 'Green' Environmentally Safe Energy Markets)!!!

Some are just leaving this up to 'chance', and we thought Obama said 'change'!?

Economic analysts are still predicting a 50/50 percent chance of a complete U.S. economic meltdown, sometime after August 2010 and into 2011.

If this were a quarter spinning on its edge, then there would be a 50 percent chance of a complete economic failure.

In the same token there is a 50 percent chance of non-failure as well.

We cannot just leave this up to circumstantial chance!

The Obama Administration seems to be currently listening to, and in acceptance of the more 'positive' forward-looking economic reports and statements!

Take Action Now - Please Sign and Forward this Petition Link to Your Friends, Family Members, and Co-Workers Too! --Thank You!!!

******************************************************

> Rebuild America Program Funding:

Please keep in mind that I am attempting to get President Barack Obama to make good on 'his' Campaign 2008 Rebuild American Infrastructure promise.

The way I have understood this to be, was that the initial government investment funding would create state-to-state reconstruction projects all across America.

This would be phased-in and upgraded as time progressed, and would create a moving employment work-force almost immediately.

Manufacturing markets would open up once again!

Trade deals would be struck and this in turn would create circulating financial benefits for all involved!

Thus the rebirth of our U.S. financial pyramid!

http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/obamarebuildnow/

*****************************************************

> Interim Statement:

I know alot of people believe deeply in the Obama Administration, but just as sure as this, we cannot just sit around patiently hoping for a positive random outcome!

*(Note: This is the only explanation for President Obama to completely ignore the rising unemployment numbers for his entire first year in office . . . and that is taking into account the economic theory of it being a lagging indicator, which it is).

If Obama is correct, then there is nothing to worry about, however, since our country was already out-sourced and with this possibility of financial failure looming . . .

It only seems prudent that our president should hedge the crippled economy bet, by engaging massive employment, manufacturing markets, and make trade deals post haste!

If Obama would execute his Campaign 2008 promise immediately, then we could ignore what some feel is his tardiness of a one year delay already.

On the possible outside-chance that Obama is wrong, then complete anarchy lies ahead, and I know some of you cannot even contemplate that scenario well.

Public activism brings political pressure to achieve results, and what if Obama's plans are slowed down drastically by some other unforeseen events!?

Would it not be prudent to hedge our bet, and let Obama know through this petition, that we take American Infrastructure Rebuilding with the utmost seriousness?

Too many U.S. citizens wish to take the lazy and selfish attitude, that allows them to do nothing but believe everything will turn out alright.

I see no harm in sending a hard-line-drawn-in-the-sand petition to Obama, that would insure us of his personal knowledge of our national faith and belief in American reconstruction!

Unless there are those who wish to see America fail, by just sitting back and taking chances with our national future!?!?

http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/obamarebuildnow/

*****************************************************

> Closing Statement:

You know Obama's Campaign 2008 promise to rebuild America!?
 
Is 'Cash for Clunkers' and the mediocre 'Job Summit' the very best as Americans that we can expect from the highest office in the land, and for our economic future?

This petition has been designed to inform President Obama of exactly where 'we the undersigned' stand on this critical U.S. issue!

So please take action below!
