Vote for leaders who won't reduce our children's opportunities

Barack Obama, Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi, to name just three, have two main principles that guide them. One is, he who robs Peter to pay Paul can always count on the support of Paul. Two is one's own success is picking who to blame for your own failures.
If we persist in voting this kind of person into high office, we get only what we deserve. The problem is, our children and grandchildren will get a country of vastly reduced opportunity as a gift from us.
