Newt Gingrich recently stood in front of 2,000 corporate power brokers and other well-heeled Republican campaign contributors and proclaimed that President Obama has "already failed" in his mission of bringing change to America.
He couldn't have been more wrong.
Mr. Gingrich's appearance brought in more than $14 million for Republican efforts to oppose President Obama's agenda. Gingrich has joined other Republican Party leaders like Rush Limbaugh in hoping that the President fails in his effort to bring change to Washington.
Democrats' tireless efforts to rebuild our economy, reform health care, strengthen American security and tackle climate change have to overcome an obstructionist Republican Party bound and determined to undermine the President's agenda and hold America back.
Democrats reject Republican calls to return to the failed policies of the past. We stand with President Obama as we look to a brighter, more hopeful and prosperous future. Show support for President Obama by sharing what you hope to see happen in this country!

President Obama,
I hope for the kind of America we can all be proud of. I hope for an America where EVERYONE has a warm bed to sleep in, food to eat, clean water, quality healthcare, and a high school education. While some have much more than they need, many others are left struggling. Those in prison are cared for better than many in this great country. It's time for change.

No more timidity. Now is the time to be a bold progressive! We want action, whether the GOP is with us or not (and we all know they will never be). Focus on keeping Democrats together. Health care is so close! Keep it up!
P.S. - Nuclear energy is NOT clean energy. Go solar & wind! Here's hoping for a brighter future.

Mr. President,
I hope that you continue on your path. America needs hope not fear. America needs nationalized health care, what we have now sure isn't working. We need a middle class and the Free Choice Act would help us achieve that better then anything the Rediculous Right has proposed. Thank you for caring about my America.

Ignore the Party of NO if they do not want to work in a bi-partisan way for the benefit of the country! It's time for Democrats to get some steel in their spines.

Time to fall back on all those that supported your campaign and your office, and do something for them. The Slave State Republicans have shown you time and time again, they want you to fail, and instead of doing something about it, you're only losing ground. You once had a huge majority of this country, rooting for you and your promises. Instead it seems you tried to take a middle ground that is less compromise than conciliation. If you haven't learned by now, we helped you because we had high hopes you weren't just another talky politician. Go back, go bold, or go find some courage, you’re doing what politicians do best - nothing really. We don't really have too many more chances to solve the problems that already are going to paint our tomorrow.
