> Petition Summary:

President Barack Obama promised to create new jobs and save the U.S. Economy during Campaign 2008, by aggressively initiating state-to-state voluntary work forces.

This should have been started no later than 2009, but there has been no actual attempt even been made to date.

This is nearly August 2010 and banks continue to close with small American businesses following directly behind!

The U.S. deficit has mushroomed from excessive spending through war and bailout packages into the trillions of dollars.

Unemployment lines have been growing along with the unemployment benefit extension being currently denied to 1+ million Americans.

U.S. American families have used up their personal savings and have begun to deplete the savings of their family and friends surrounding them.

It appears as if America is preparing for a national economic emergency, by engaging in executive orders to enable martial law, but not alleviate the circumstances that would produce such a drastic consequence!

There is absolutely no rational reason to allow this situation to continue unabated -- Not In America!

*So please join us by signing and promoting the following petition below:

Thank you for your participation in helping to save America!

*********************************************************

> We the undersigned agree:

We need to immediately help bring middle-class America back from the brink of near-future poverty status; along with the currently poor class as well!

Some people argue that Healthcare Reform must come first, but if the U.S. has no solid economic foundation to rely upon, then everything including Healthcare would soon become bankrupt in the very near future!

Some people argue that rebuilding the United States infrastructure, as President Barack Obama has already promised in Campaign 2008, would bankrupt America . . .  

This is only true if we wait too much longer to off-set the U.S. Housing Market economic collapse, because there is only one conceivable avenue to follow:

Generate massive and immediate employment, manufacturing, and trade increases by immediately engaging the U.S. state-to-state infrastructure reconstruction programs now!!!

* (Note: This should have been initiated a decade ago, and of course in the context of creating Alternative Green Environmentally Safe Energy Markets)!!!

Some are just leaving this up to 'chance', and we thought Obama meant 'change'!?

Economic analysts are still predicting a 50/50 percent chance of a complete U.S. economic meltdown sometime in 2011.

If this were a quarter spinning on its edge, then there would be a 50 percent chance for a complete economic failure.

In the very same token there is also a 50 percent chance of non-failure as well.

We cannot just leave this up to random circumstantial chance!

The Obama Administration seems to be currently listening to, and in acceptance of the more 'positive' forward-looking economic reports and statements!

What kind of proof do we need, or will just some more lost jobs be what it takes to convince us all???

Take Action Now - Please Sign and Forward this Petition Link to Your Friends, Family Members, and Co-Workers Also! -- Thank You!

*********************************************************

> Rebuild America Program Funding:

Please keep in mind that we are attempting to get President Barack Obama to make good on 'his' Campaign 2008 Rebuild America's Infrastructure promise.

The way we have understood this to financially begin, was that the initial government investment-funding would create state-to-state reconstruction projects all across America, which would thereby automatically create a new profitable U.S. Economy.

The key word here for industry and investors is 'profitable'!

This would be phased-in and upgraded as time progressed and would create a moving employment work-force almost immediately.

Manufacturing markets would open up once again!

Trade deals would be struck and this in turn would create circulating financial benefits for all involved!

Thus the rebirth of our U.S. financial pyramid! 

********************************************************

> Closing Statement:

We know alot of people believe deeply in the Obama Administration, but just as sure as this, we cannot just sit around patiently hoping for a positive random outcome!

If Obama's economic decisions are correct thus far, then there is nothing to worry about, however, since our country was already out-sourced and with the possibility of financial failure looming in our face. . .

It only seems prudent that our president should hedge the crippled economic bet, by engaging in massive employment, manufacturing markets, and make trade deals in this regard post haste . . .

If Obama would execute his Campaign 2008 promise immediately, then we could ignore what some feel is his tardiness of a one year delay already.

On the possible chance that Obama has been incorrect, then complete anarchy lies ahead and I know some of you cannot even contemplate that scenario well.

Public activism brings political pressure to achieve results, and what if Obama's plans are slowed down drastically by other unforeseen events!?

Would it not be prudent to hedge our bet and let Obama know through this petition, that we take American infrastructure rebuilding with the utmost seriousness?

We cannot take the lazy and selfish attitude, that allows us to do nothing but believe everything will turn out alright.

I see no harm in sending a hard-line-drawn-in-the-sand petition to Obama, that would insure us of his personal knowledge of our national faith and belief in American reconstruction!

Americans need to see more than 'Cash for Clunkers' and a mediocre "Job Summit" to convince us that our national economy is safe!!!

Due to globalization, every nation now depends upon the Obama Administration's economic decisions being the correct ones!

These actions must be taken now, in order to turn our financial 'Titanic' in the nick of time . . . Unless there are those who wish to see America fail, just by sitting back and taking chances with our national future!?!?

Create New Jobs By Rebuilding America Now

Greetings Mr. President,

> Petition Letter To: President Barack Obama:

Dear President Barack Obama;

Please read our petition and forward copies to the Republican Party and to those in the U.S. Congress who could help us make our resolution come true.

Please help save America now by engaging in your Campaign 2008 promise to rebuild America's deteriorating infrastructure, before it actually becomes too late!

We know this would create jobs!

We realize that Healthcare Reform and all other types of legislation will be made useless without a solid U.S. economic foundation in our nation's future.

Please engage and expedite America's state-to-state reconstruction programs now, because Americans are just standing idle in long unemployment lines waiting!

This new American reconstruction should of course have a clean Green Alternative Energies central core objective.

We understand that due to globalization your economic decisions impact every nation in the world, therefore every signature on this public petition is to be counted as a valid voice of expressed opinion.

Please read the following information for a further detailed explanation, and then please forward a copy of this petition to the U.S. Congress.

Thank you for your attention concerning this extremely critical matter.

Sincerely, We the undersigned.

[Your name]
