“Unprecedented” is the most valid description of President Obama and I predict that it will define his entire presidency. How much more appropriate can it be that a leader described in such manner has unparalleled plans for our nation? I’m referring to the “more-than-massive” spending budget he has proposed. It represents a larger than life ambition to resuscitate our hemorrhaging economy. Despite this aggressive approach, we are all aware that a passive option will promise our nation a deep depression. Fortunately, the current leaders agree about the importance of an economic jolt.
At first glance it appears very counter intuitive that spending will restore the status quo. My doubt (not reasons) is mirrored because there are many “nay sayers” on the proposed course of action. Obama will have to over come a daunting task of pushing the proposed budget through an unmatched legislative fight against special interest groups and lobbyists. The projected budget and the battle it will endure to become enacted resembles Obama’s unprecedented profile. Pushing our nation’s deficit to a record 1.75 trillion, President Obama’s budget personifies a notion that “one step back will lead to two steps forward”. Such an immense debt is by no means desirable, but if it restores stability then it is the correct course of action. I have come to reaffirm that since our nation now stands in a never before seen or rivaled mess, our unprecedented leader is the appropriate man. I am not sure what is larger- the proposed budget spending or our hopes that it will work.

Although I see where your opinion is stated on the issue, I think you would have been able to make a more solid argument through this post. The ideas and facts are clearly presented but your attempt to validate them are a little weak. If possible maybe try writing another post on this issue but present a stronger claim on what you think Obama's budget proposal is doing to our economy. Look at the issue from two sides so that youre audience can better compare and contrast it's opinions to yours. Give a solid reason behind your idea and I think you would get a lot more responses. Your facts and detail are great, it was an overall good post. Maybe just think about taking it in a different direction.
This post does seem to wander around and not make a clear point. It's more of an attempt to inform, but if so, there needs to be more solid information in it.
