Why is it mainly wealthy seniors that oppose Obama?Afraid of making a million less next year? But poor seniors

Question

and seniors with average incomes love Obama, with VERY few exceptions. I don't blame seniors for loving Obama. He is the closest to an honest man that we have ever seen in politics. If you were completely honest, you would never get elected, so a few white lies may get through, but Obama has revealed that he tells the whole truth where it really counts!

Answer 1

Remember; Barack is a relative "Newbie". He doesn't have a LONG Economic "track record" for older- wealthier- folks to go by. If You have a lot of $$$ NOW, & you hear someone claiming they're gonna make BIG Changes to everything, it's gonna make You alittle "Nervous" about "What's this Young Guy gonna DO with MY money- if He gets into Office..?" They've got LESS to Gain- if Obama becomes President, than Poorer Seniors -who have nothing to Lose... ... .

Answer 2

wealthy people are republicans...working stiffs are democrates.  Wealth protects wealth[ Bush]

Answer 3

Well, I must be the exception. I'm 69 years old. And I'm an upper-middle class American. Senator Obama is a political hack out of the party machine in Cook County. He has not authored one piece of legislation during his time in the Senate. His voting record in that body would probably have earned a salute from Karl Marx. As for white lies, they go a bit beyond that definition. His great aunt worked in an aircraft plant during World War Two which never existed. His great uncle helped liberate a concentration camp in Germany even though the man was in the Navy and spent the entire war in the Pacific! Sorry. I'm looking for a President prepared to recognize and carry out the duties of the office as set forth in Article Two of the Constitution. Not a snake oil salesman.

Answer 4

Seniors don't want Marxism or terrorism . Why would we vote for it ? We've been around too long to know a slick talker when we see one .We had a taste of what he is made of when we heard the hate rantings of his long time preacher . "Obama has revealed the truth"? What is this - the second coming ?

Answer 5

.So too did the present resident nitwit in the Whitehouse.At least until he was elected.

Answer 6

Uhh maybe because people with money busted their a$$ to get it and they don't want to hand it over to some lazy slob in a well fare line.

And as far as you assumption that hes honest is scary. Politicians CANNOT get to where the are, in our present system, without being a liar and lining their campaign pockets with lobbyist money. They lie to anyone who will hand them a bank roll, then lie to us that they would never do a thing like that. Our currant system is broken, therefore so are the men/women "working the system".
