Obama/Haiti - a Comparison

Lots of aid going to Haiti, which is great - but getting it to the people is proving to be a problem. The intentions are good but there are practical difficulties.

President Obama has the right ideas - universal health care, closing Guantanamo, bringing the troops home, controlling the banks and big business - but delivering these is proving to be a problem.

In Haiti the problem is the lack of infrastructure and governmental control.

In the USA, the problem is the extreme right and the money banks and businesses are able to pour into anti-Obama propaganda.

Don't lose hope, either in Haiti or the USA ! And well done Obama and America for being so quick to help Haiti - pity Bush didn't do it for New Orleans ! And you might try helping your president instead of opposing everything he does.
