President Obama Is My Favorite Conservative

President Obama is my favorite conservativeYou read that right. President Obama is my favorite conservative - at least in the 21st century. I know Fox News and the Tea Party keep telling you that he's a Marxist and a Socialist...and Communist...but that is all rhetoric. President Obama is actually a moderate Republican who just happens to be the leader of the Democratic Party. Don't believe me? Did Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck tell you something different? Believe it or not, just because you consider yourself a Republican or fiscal conservative, you don't have to despair. In fact, you're in luck! The country just elected a moderate Conservative just like ol' Ronald Reagan used to be!  Let's look at some of the clues to our President's secret leanings to the Right...

But who do you vote for if you aren't amongst the political base?  The decisions can be difficult, especially if you don't follow politics.  All sides have their strengths and weaknesses.  To make the choices a little bit easier, I have created a SWOT Analysis Of The Presidential Candidates.  A SWOT analysis is a marketing term that is an acronym for  Strengths, Weaknesses, Oppositions, and Threats.
