   • $6 trillion in new national debt under Obama…after he promised   
   to decrease the deficit.   
      
   • Obamacare — A massive and incredibly convoluted bill which   
   exponentially increases the federal government’s control over   
   our personal lives…which neither Obama nor a single Democrat   
   even read before passing, and which will likely bankrupt the   
   nation.   
      
   • In both the 2008 and 2012 presidential elections, the Obama   
   campaign purposely disabled the credit card verification system   
   for its Web site donations, allowing anyone from any foreign   
   country to donate with no limit and no proof of identity; in   
   both elections it was demonstrated that people overseas and   
   people with obviously false identities were able to donate to   
   Obama campaign, in direct violation of several laws. To this day   
   it is not known what percentage of Obama’s campaign funds are   
   illegally obtained, since there is no documentation.   
      
   • Billions of taxpayer dollars gambled on “green” companies like   
   Solyndra, NextEra, Ener1, Solar Trust and many others — all of   
   which went bankrupt.   
      
   • An intentional refusal to enforce federal immigration laws.   
      
   • Unemployment at or above 8% for almost his entire term in   
   office (which was actually closer to 15% actual unemployment).   
      
   • Operation Fast & Furious — a government-sponsored illegal gun-   
   running scheme designed to purposely go awry so as to induce   
   public outcry for gun control.   
      
   • Spent 20 years listening to a racist anti-American pastor   
   (Rev. Jeremiah Wright), whom Obama described as a mentor. On   
   March 18, 2008, Obama gave a speech in which he said “I could no   
   more disown Jeremiah Wright than I could disown my own   
   grandmother” and “[Wright's church, Trinity United] embodies the   
   black community in its entirety.” Now Obama tries to pretend   
   that Jeremiah Wright doesn’t exist, and that his extremist anti-   
   white philosophy didn’t influence Obama’s worldview.   
      
   • Increased the percentage of Americans dependent on food stamps   
   to unprecedented levels (now over 15% of the nation’s   
   population).   
      
   • Militarily intervened in Libya in 2011 without the   
   Congressional approval required by the War Powers Act —   
   technically an impeachable offense.   
      
   • Before he entered politics, Obama worked as a lawyer suing   
   banks in landmark cases, forcing them to give home loans to   
   unqualified minority borrowers — a practice now understood as   
   one of the primary initial causes of the eventual housing bubble   
   and market collapse.   
      
   • Handed out over 1,200 waivers to politically connected donors   
   exempting them from the onerous requirements of Obamacare.   
      
   • Greatly expanding the number of unaccountable “czars,” which   
   essentially amounts to unilaterally adding new federal   
   departments with no congressional oversight — leading to a true   
   “bureaucracy” in the original sense (rule by unelected   
   bureaucrats).   
      
   • Using taxpayer dollars to bail out the private pension funds   
   of autoworkers’ unions at GM & Chrysler.   
      
   • Illegally ending the welfare-to-work requirements passed by   
   Congress.   
      
   • Doling out $800 billion in stimulus cash for “shovel-ready”   
   jobs that didn’t exist — the money just evaporated with no   
   measurable economic benefit.   
      
   • Alienating and isolating Israel, our strongest ally in the   
   Middle East.   
      
   • Apologizing to Islamists and terrorists for offending them.   
      
   • Under Obama’s watch, for the first time in history America’s   
   credit rating was downgraded, due to his poor economic policies.   
      
   • Stopped American oil drilling in the Gulf of Mexico, allowing   
   other nations with worse environmental records to drill instead   
   — thereby managing to both weaken our economy and damage the   
   environment simultaneously.   
      
   • Proposed in 2008 to intentionally bankrupt the coal industry —   
   and now lies to voters and workers in coal-producing regions   
   about his true intent.   
      
   • Pretends to be concerned about skyrocketing energy prices,   
   when in fact he vowed to increase them on purpose (so as to make   
   alternative energy schemes more competitive.)   
      
   • In a primary debate against Hillary Clinton in 2008, Obama   
   said he would never force people to buy health insurance, since   
   those without it couldn’t afford to buy it. Less than two years   
   later, he rammed through Obamacare, which does indeed force   
   people to buy health insurance.   
      
   • During the 2008 campaign, Obama repeatedly promised that if he   
   was elected “No family making less than $250,000 will see any   
   form of tax increase.” This promise was broken over and over   
   again once he was elected.   
      
   • In 2008 Obama vowed if elected to increase security along the   
   U.S.-Mexican border — and then in 2010 stopped construction of a   
   “virtual fence” on the border and re-routed money earmarked for   
   border security to other projects.   
      
   • Cash for Clunkers, which doled out taxpayer money to anyone   
   who wanted to replace their old cars, but which mostly only   
   ended up subsidizing the puchase of foreign-made cars by people   
   who could have afforded them on their own anyway; meanwhile, the   
   traded-in cars were all destroyed, creating a shortage and   
   thereby increasing the cost of used cars, hurting the   
   pocketbooks of poor people.   
      
   • Violated the U.S. Constitution by authorizing assassinations   
   and drone strikes to kill American citizens abroad — without due   
   process.   
      
   • Was caught on a “hot mike” promising the President of Russia   
   that he would cave in to their demands for a weaker missile   
   shield — after he was re-elected and no longer had to keep up   
   the pretense that he sought to defend America.   
      
   • Appointed Van Jones, a former avowed communist who supported a   
   “9/11 Truth” petition, to be “Green Jobs Czar.”   
      
   • Appointed Anita Dunn, who said Chairman Mao was her “favorite   
   philosopher,” to be White House Communications Director.   
      
   • Appointed John Holdren, who perviously entertained the notion   
   of forced mass sterilzation to stop overpopulation, to be   
   Science Czar.   
      
   • Appointed Steven Chu, who openly advocated an artificial   
   increase in gasoline prices to $10/gallon (and similar increases   
   in other energy prices) to be Secretary of Energy.   
      
   • Appointed Kevin Jennings, who led a group that promoted X-   
   rated “sex-positive” textbooks for 13-year-olds, instructed   
   teenagers at a conference how to perform “fisting” (anal   
   penetration by fists), who refused to report instances of   
   statutory rape, and who expressed admiration for a member of   
   NAMBLA, to be America’s “Safe School’s Czar.”   
      
   • When states voted to enforce the federal immigration laws   
   which the federal government refused to enforced, Obama sued to   
   stop them.   
      
   • Blocked continued construction of the Keystone Pipeline,   
   thereby intentionally reducing energy resources for the US and   
   forcing Canada to sell more of its oil to China.   
      
   • Repeatedly changed his position on gay marriage over the   
   years, depending on what was politically expedient at the moment   
   and which intended audience he was addressing.   
      
   • Before he was president, Obama staunchly opposed raising the
