What planet does Barack Obama live on? Recently he claimed he is going to get people to volunteer and help to make the world better.
I think every Democrat that has been volunteering in various places should vote Republican, as Obama insulted every person who has for years volunteered. Now Obama is going to convince people to volunteer and make the world a better place?
My 81 years of volunteering started when I was in my teens and volunteered to read to young children at a library. I volunteered in school during my teen years until I graduated and got married and then volunteered to help serve banquets to help finance a volunteer fire company. I did volunteering in Parent Teacher's Association fund raising's to help finance children's outings to educational experiences, was a Den Mother to Cub Scouts for years. It continued throughout my life in various ways.
My daughter started out being a candystriper for years, and then after college started volunteering at the Special Olympics. She has been volunteering with special needs children for over 30 years and loves every minute of it.
This has happened for the past 50 years or more for many women and their daughters. They should feel insulted by a man who wants to be elected president.
When our daughter went to college one of the criteria for getting into that college was that through her youth she volunteered; not knowing that when she volunteered as a candy striper it would help her get into college. She has been out of college over 35 years now. Obama does not know this is one of the criteria for getting into some colleges?
Obama sounded like he was inventing volunteering, when volunteering has been around all along. My mother volunteered all through the years I was growing up.
