Barack Obama called, Wednesday, April 20, mobilization for the 2012 presidential election. He acknowledged that some hopes for the 2008 campaign had been run into the exercise of power, but urged his supporters to help him finish what he started. In two election meetings in the evening in San Francisco - the first from wealthy donors in the Democratic party in a private residence, the second in a large auditorium, in front of an enthusiastic audience composed mostly of young people - Obama has adopted a tone offensive.
"We knew it would not be easy" to make the change promised during the successful campaign of 2007-2008, he noted. "The change, for real, it's difficult," he exclaimed, admitting to be "sometimes frustrated" because of the difficulty in advancing reforms. He took the opportunity to applaud the successes of his administration, including the safety of the U.S.
automobile industry, the passage of the reform of Medicare, the overhaul of rules governing the activities of banks or the abolition of the law on discrimination against homosexuals in the military. At the first meeting, where donors Democrats had paid $ 800 to 35 the right to dine with the president in a small group in a musical performed by Stevie Wonder himself, Mr.
Obama is again taken away the budget plan advanced by Republican majority in the House of Representatives. These are demanding cuts in the funding of social and new tax cuts for the rich. "It does not take much imagination," said Mr Obama. It is the headquarters of Facebook, Calif., that Barack Obama has defended his budgetary strategy, urging young users of social networks to mobilize again.
"The Republican budget that was presented was quite radical. (But) I would not classify it as particularly courageous," Obama said to the side of Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, 26. The 2012 budget presented by the Republican chairman of the Budget Committee in the House of Representatives, Paul Ryan, provides for severe cuts in major social programs to try to resolve the issue of long-term deficits.
Obama has advocated a more "balanced" and reiterated his wish to face Mark Zuckerberg, a tax reform "that allows people like me, and frankly, like you, Mark to pay a little more taxes. " "It does not bother me," replied the CEO of 26 years at the head of a personal fortune of 6.9 billion, according to the latest Forbes magazine rankings.
