Barack  Obama's 32 Month Report Card 
Mr. Hope and Change wants to create a  nation humbled; humiliated, casting-aside capitalism and individual  freedoms for one where we the  people are government controlled. This would be a system that  genuflects mediocrity, steals personal aspiration and opportunity, and  punishes those who strive to succeed.
 A gallon of regular gasoline the  day Obama was inaugurated was $1.79 on average in the  U.S. Today that price is $3.59, a 100.6% increase. 
The number of food  stamp recipients has risen since Obama took office from 31,983,716 to  43,200,878, a 35.1% jump. 
Long term unemployment soared 146.2% during  the same 32 month period from 2,600,000 to 6,400,000.  Staggering hope and change isn't it?
American citizens living in poverty  have risen 9.5% from 39,800,000 to 43,600,000, and the number of  unemployed has jumped almost 25% from 11,616,000 to 14,485,000 as of  August 31, 2011. 
 The number of unemployed blacks has  risen from 12.6% at the end of George Bush's term to 15.8% today, a  25.4% increase, and finally, our national debt is up 34.4% from 10.627  trillion to 14,278 trillion

First President to  repeat what the Holy Qur'an tells us, and openly admit the early morning  call of the Azan (Islamic call to worship)  is the most beautiful sound on earth. 
Remember that 32 months of Obama  White House "we the people" have accumulated national debt at a rate  more than 27 times as fast as during the rest of our nation's entire  history, as the Obama's plan their next extravagant  vacation to the Indonesian Island nation of Bali. Hope and change  anyone?
