"Change, We Need"

Barack,

I'm confused by your signs.

Change
We Need

Is this a lame attempt at Yoda speak? Did you want to say "We need change", but wanted the "Change" part to be bigger and bolder?

In any case, "Change" is too easy and too dangerous. Different for the sake of different should not be confused with progress. Change is just entropy, not a way forward.

Your speeches frequently describe to your audience how your policies will benefit the individuals whose votes you seek.

You seem to want to invoke JFK's exhortation - "Ask not what your country can do for you, but rather ask what you can do for your country!"

When you say the words it sounds like "Ask not what you can do for your country, but rather ask what your country can do for you!."

Ask more of your government. I could support that idea.

More - efficient
More - forward thinking
More - useful
More - humanitarian
