<p><strong>Can President Barack Obama Give Us Our Financial Freedom?</strong></p>
<p>When President Barack Obama took his position as the President of the United States, it was very refreshing for a lot of us.  One of the reasons we were happy to have President Obama as our President was simply because we were looking for our troops to finally come home and the war to be over, but as you can see that is not happening too quick.  It is understood that the war was started and must be finished; however, we must allow President Obama handle his duties and we must handle our duties as the war goes on, make sure we take prosperity into our own hands.  We are responsible for our financial freedom.  This country is based on being free and making money is one of the greatest opportunities within America.  Jobs were never meant to be part of our goal of achieving wealth.  Jobs have nothing to do with becoming wealthy.  By chance, one can get wealthy, but there are a lot of challenges looking to get wealthy working for other people.</p>
<p>&lt;p&gt;It is time that Americans change their thing pattern and realize that we have a choice to become a successful person.  It is okay to be a part of political parties, but politics cannot stop our prosperity.  So many months have past since President Barack Obama has been in office and Americans are already complaining about what he has not done.  There have been polls to evaluate our President&#8217;s performance, instead of Americans looking at their own performance. Have you ever took time to think about how you are performing on a daily basis?  Have you took responsibility to change your own living conditions, which might not be so great.  You may say, oh yes, I&#8217;ve tried to find a job and I cannot find one.  That&#8217;s the problem, you are looking for a job, instead of mastering your own wealth.  You are looking to get an employer to hand you a paycheck.</p>
<p>On a daily basis, how do you spend your time?  Do you spend your time looking for work to pay bills?  Possibly, you already are spending all your time on a job that still does not pay you enough money and you do not even know how long you will be able to keep your job.  Your job is never promised to you.  Jobs are only temporary, because they are never permanent positions, although you may pass your 90 day probation period.</p>
<p>You need to start spending at least 3 hours a day, figuring out how you will someday be able to give yourself a lucrative income.  None of your time should be spent on the latest news regarding on President Barack&#8217;s progress unless it is good news, simply because if it negative news regarding jobs, then it will cause you to only focus on jobs and not financial freedom.  This is the very reason why we do not have people postively making progress, because they constantly tune into negative press coverage that takes the focus off of success and prosperity.</p>
<p>If you are the type of person who is always blaming each and every President for the conditions of our American society, then it is a good possiblity you will began to support our President when you take responsibility of getting your financial freedom.  You will become optimistic and began to wonder why people are complaining about the job shortage. The negative conversations you usually hear regarding our President will began to sound strange to you and you will choose to focus on prosperity, rather than negativity.  You will also began to discover that prosperity was always in your control, all you had to do was transform your mind and your manage your time.</p>
<p>          ]]&gt;</p>
<p>President Barack Obama will continue to do his best to see that America gets more jobs, but as you know, jobs is not his sole interest. He has other matters he has to regard on a daily basis.  He takes care of more than what we have to worry about.  If we were in his position, we probably would not even have time to enjoy our paycheck and could not handle all tasks he was left with, after Bush ceased his position.  You see, people spend a lot of time complaining, but would never imagine what it would be like in the position as the President of the United States.</p>
<p>Our job is to make sure we are not only decent citizens, but our job is to create a lucrative cash flow for ourselves and if we can do so, create jobs for other people.  We have a responsibility to make sure we are happy, so we can make a positive impact on other American citizens and in doing so, this can help create a better society. One of the main reasons why our society has been jeopardy, is simply because the error of the average American&#8217;s mindset and daily focus. This relates to the first subpoint and/or main point 3 In conclusion if you make a wise choice to focus on success and prosperity, then you will began to view job scarcity at a minimum problem within America, because you are not a part of the majority who places blame on the President.  You will finally experience the dream of financial freedom and make positive solutions to minimize poverty while choosing a prosperous life.</p>

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama and GOP lawmakers, hundreds of billions of dollars short of their goal and seemingly trapped in inflexible bargaining positions, are struggling for agreement on $  2 trillion-plus in budget cuts as the price for maintaining the government&#8217;s ability to borrow.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Beverly Hills, California (PRWEB) November 8, 2010
<p> The Victorino Noval Foundation, founded by Victor Noval, aka Victorino Noval Jr, sent an open letter to President Barack Obama today calling for the passage of H.R. 4645, a bill that will end restrictions for Americans wishing to travel to Cuba as well as allowing for the sale of agricultural commodities to Cuba. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Noval launched the Victorino Noval Foundation, headquartered in Beverly Hills, in the memory of his father to improve relations between Cuba and the United States. He hopes that through lobbying and media attention the government will end the trade and travel embargo against Cuba. H.R. 4645 is the next step in accomplishing this goal. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Last year, President Obama lifted restrictions on Cuban Americans wishing to travel home to Cuba. Noval contends that this is not enough. Within the letter Noval states, ?The country of Cuba deserves to be treated with the same diplomatic consideration as other non-democratic or former adversarial countries such as Vietnam, China, Russia and Iran.? </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>H.R. 4645 would also improve trade relations with Cuba, affording the United States new economic opportunities. The letter explains, ?According to the chairman of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, an organization that has been energetic and outspoken about the need to remove the embargo, U.S. corporations want the embargo to be lifted.  Americans want to trade with Cuba.?  </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The ever-present need to find new oil reserves is also a reason to pass this important legislation. Noval states, ?Cuba?s recent massive oil finds (20 billion barrels), could easily equal today?s U.S. reserve? Lifting the embargo and partnering with Cuba could be like doubling access to oil supplies.? Cuba has given signs that it is interested in such a deal!</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>On a humanitarian level, Noval urges the government to consider that Cuba has already created countless medicines that U.S. citizens do not have access to.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>By soliciting the support of President Obama, the Victorino Noval Foundation hopes that H.R. 4645 will pass without incident, paving the way for an end to the Cuban Embargo. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>About the Victorino Noval Foundation:&#13;<br />
<br />The Victorino Noval Foundation was created in memory of Victorino Noval Sr., who was born in Asturias, Spain, and died Los Angeles, California, May 7, 2010. Victor Noval, aka Victorino Noval Jr., runs the foundation in loving memory of his father and to carry on his father?s dreams and legacy to improve Cuban-American relations. &#13;<br />
