What Do We Need?

As I watch CNN and MSNBC each night, I become overwhelmed with the constant debilitating arguments amongst Democrats and Republicans about what kind of President our country needs. With the economy in the dumps and our country in line for a recession, it is clear our new President needs to be a realist, to see things for what they truly are and act on it. Optimism at the moment of defeat is moronic. We need A President that represents all of the American people, not just the poor or the rich, in uniting our country. We are a country of broken politics, scandals, and poverty. While the rich get richer, the poor starve and the middle class begin their decline to becoming poor. Home foreclosures have forced families out of their homes, in turn devastating the economy. We need a President that takes care of the issues at home, before creating tensions on foreign soil. America needs change and hope to believe that we can begin to progress as a country once again. We are a divided nation, separated by politics, racial injustice and social classes. Can we endure another 4 years of "business as usual"? I am afraid not. We need a President to focus on the issues that affect each an every American citizen. Politics as usual just doesn't work anymore and we need to move forward as a country. I ask all of you, what do we need in our next President?
