An average American, I served two years in the Army (Korea) then spent 40 years in business before retirement. For the first time in my adult life, I fear for the future of this country and my grandchildren.

I read for myself what President Barack Obama says about himself in his two books, and I researched Romney's career, family and religion.

In this election, our Christian nation could lose the battle against socialism, the welfare state, Middle East oil and Islamic extremism. If so, we will be dependent on centralized government, losing freedoms won by our forefathers, grandfathers and fathers, those for which our sons and daughters are being killed in Afghanistan.

Study where both candidates will lead our country. Read Obama's book Dreams from My Father or see the 2016 movie before you vote.
