Americans are approaching the most important elections in our nation's history. In 2010 we can collectively apply the brakes on a young president's unrealistic intentions.

President Obama has launched an onslaught on our nation's overall health and unity. His sincerity is marred by his thinking that he's the solution to all of our nation's problems. He is right: We should be acting on behalf of the planet, our nation and our fellow humans. He's wrong to think that such worthy endeavors can be achieved in a matter of months or a couple of years.

He becomes the problem when he attempts to force the achievements on us at the expense of our personal freedoms. Having sworn to honor the U.S. Constitution, he immediately acted in a systematic way to render that document irrelevant.

His intrusion into private business, his ignoring fiscal sanity by piling staggering debt on top of staggering debt and his appointment of czars -- make that commissars -- without any congressional oversight are not in keeping with our form of representational government.

In 2010 the elections will provide Americans the opportunity to rid Congress of fawning cheerleaders who are enabling Obama to ignore the will of the people. Without his near-rubber-stamp Congress, our president will quite possibly join the Americans he's supposed to serve and join us in a moderate approach to long-term problems.

Americans are essentially centrists; we don't need extremists from the right or left.
