There will be fighting in the streets if Obama is re-elected. First of all, I really DOUBT that, but who does he think "he" will be fighting against? His daughter who has joined the National Guard? No, she will not join the insurgents, not only because she took a oath to defend the USA, but she is actually VOTING for Obama! So, who else? Me? Your other daughter? Your son-in-law? NONE of us, and many, many other people, want to overthrow the government because Obama is our President.

Their silly second "civil war" won't happen because the PEOPLE of this country won't WANT it.
