Politicians that do not act and tell like they mean it, are not meaning what they say and what they do. Such persons do not deserve neither respect, nor trust. they are liars, and voting for them deserves laughs and ridicule: who is the greater fool: the fool, or the fool following him, voluntarily?

Your first statement is false. Neither the United States nor Germany is a democracy. Democracy is two cats and a mouse voting over what's for dinner. We are in Republics, ruled by laws, not democracies ruled by the whims of men. The essence of a republic is protection of minorities from the tyranny of the majority. Only in a republic could a Barack Obama ever be a candidate for president. In a democracy, he would be a slave. All the bull about democracy came up in the US around 1900 when the socialists wanted to push for a so-called progressive income tax. The constitution did not give them the right to make that change, so the idea that the US was a democracy was created, along with the fantasy that the constitution is a "living, breathing document" meaning nothing but what the majority choose for it to mean today.
The result is a country where well over 40% pay no federal income taxes at all, but who for some insane reason have the right to vote money out of the pockets of those who do. It is a grab-fest of non-productive people voting themselves money from the pockets of those who have worked hard to earn it. It is a country where a leading presidential candidate without laughing, proposes to fix the problems of wage earners by crippling the wage payers. It is a country willing to accept that the sole source of our energy, the corporations that generate it and distribute fuel to everyone, are evil and must have half of their profits (they have tinier profit margins that Wal-Mart!) confiscated. It has created a suicidal majority with no stake in the country they unwittingly seek to destroy. It is as if all the stockholders of Toyota attended a General Motors stockholders meeting and were permitted to vote, forcing GM to pay Toyota $200 million. We need to destroy the income tax system and substitute a national sales tax, the Fair Tax, to make all citizens contributers to the government they vote for. No representation without taxation!
In your second point you are spot on. Obama made a big pro woman show at Bethune Cookman College, where he made a huge "women should be paid as much as a man for the same work and government should REQUIRE it!!!" song and dance, while he pays his women $1,900 less for the same job as he pays his men in his personal campaign organization. McCain, who Obama portrayed as anti-woman, seeking to enslave them, is paying his women $9,100 more than the men in the same job description. Who really supports women? Your point is brilliant! Obama deserves neither respect nor trust. And that's only the beginning.
Obama does not have the confidence in his beliefs to tell the truth about them. Why?
