Increased funding for community-based prevention programs.

Through American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, provided $500 million for Health Professions Training Programs.

In 2009, eliminated the Bush-era restrictions on embryonic stem cell research, which shows promise in treating spinal injuries, among many other areas.


Our way forward is so clear. Huge strides have been made. In health, family, education and yes the support of woman in so many ways.

We finally passed VAWA, wow what a fight that was. A fight for decency, our right to protect our woman, children and other partners, gay, straight, American Indian, or immigrant. It is our right and it is decent. Our President, Vice President and First Lady all fought for this with us. It is our shame as a country that it had to be fought at all.

I appreciate and support this President in all that he has helped to change. For all that he hopes to change.

This passage means a lot to me~

A president is often referred to as the father of the country. He nurtures it, guides it in the right direction, lays down policies that will not only help the country in the interim, but also ten, twenty, thirty years down the line. When his term is done, (the formative years of a child’s life) the country has either regressed or grown in leaps and bounds.


He has indeed changed our present, and better yet he has changed our future. We have grown in leaps and bounds. We will continue to grow.

He has changed our future, our children. They know, Cha.

They are our future and they are Strong!
