President Obama isn’t on the ballot this fall, but voters say they'll be turning out to oppose him.
Thirty-two percent of registered voters see the midterm elections as a vote against Obama, compared to just 20 percent in favor, with the midterm elections less than two weeks away.
Forty-five percent of voters do not consider the president a factor in their ballots, according to a new Pew Research Center survey.
UNIONS
PARTNER WITH OBAMA AND
WALL STREET TO ASSAULT THE
AMERICAN WORKER WITH AMNESTY

OPEN BORDERS… It’s all about keeping wages
depressed
For
their part, US trade unions such as the United Auto Workers have functioned as
junior partners in the impoverishment and exploitation of the working class,
suppressing any opposition to the attack on living standards.
In
this corporate America has enjoyed the full backing of the Obama administration
and both big business parties, which have slashed food stamps and long-term
unemployment benefits. The White House, which orchestrated the slashing of
wages in the auto industry restructuring of 2009, has made the lowering of
living standards for US workers the centerpiece of its so-called revival of
American manufacturing.

IS
OBAMA BUSH’S THIRD AND FOURTH TERMS ON STEROIDS?
Obama replaced George W. Bush, who left office the most
reviled president in US history. The election campaign was accompanied by an
enormous amount of media marketing, with a candidate who had no significant
political history packaged as the agent of “hope” and “change.”
Upon coming to office, however, Obama pursued the most
right-wing agenda in US history. It quickly emerged that whatever vague
promises he made were insincere, and that his administration was committed to
an acceleration of the policies of the Bush administration—overseeing a
historic transfer of wealth to the rich, escalating military violence abroad,
and deepening the attacks on democratic rights within the United States.
