When you can't see reality for the trees!

Good question.  Let's take a quick review just the Executive Branch of goverment.   This is the branch I would feel would be responsible collectively for the smooth operation of our country and all the services it provides to citizens.

Executive Branch - President Barack Obama - have done a tremendous amount of work.  In fact so much work it makes me tired just reviewing it all.

  • Department of Agriculture
  • Department of Commerce 
  • Department of Defense 
  • Department of Education 
  • Department of Energy 
So this post won't be 10 years long let's start with taking a look at one Department.  The winner is The Dpartment of Commerce.  If I had a dollar for every time I have heard the word "economy" over the last few years I could probably retire rich without ever having to work again.

Department of Commerce has the following bureaus, departments, and national services under its administration per Wikipedia.





 Bureau of Industry and Security 
  • Economics and Statistics Administration  
  • Bureau of Economic Analysis 
  • Bureau of the Census 
  • Economic Development Administration 
  • International Trade Administration  
  • Invest in America 
  • Office of Travel and Tourism Industries 
  • United States Commercial Service 
  • Minority Business Development Agency 
  • National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration 
  • National Weather Service 
  • National Oceanic Service 
  • National Geodetic Survey 
  • National Marine Fisheries Service 
  • National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service 
  • National Telecommunications and Information Administration 
  • Patent and Trademark Office  
  • Board of Patent Appeals and Interferences 
  • Trademark Trial and Appeal Board 
  • National Institute of Standards and Technology  
  • National Technical Information Service
Okay that's enough for this department for now.  I really feel enough said.  But for those who still have your doubts check back for a more in-depth analysis before election day.

Don't discount candidates based on their party affiliation.  Ask all the candidates some candid questions and see if they know anything about government administration.  I'm just saying.  There is a wealth of information available for research online.  Learn to form your own opionions and ideas.  Hey in fact I'm the last person who would try and shove my opinion of anything down anyone's throat.  Check out the facts for yourself.
