How will you help America and President Obama?
Yes, I already posted this question, but many seemed to misunderstand. I wrote that I will do MORE volunteer work but I guess the cynics missed that word. In fact I have been volunteering since the 1960's as a tutor, friendly visitor, telephone reassurance caller, soup kitchen worker, quilt & afghan maker and other programs too numerous to list. I also raised a son, worked, paid taxes, and like most people had a hard time making ends meet. But I have always felt that I had a responsibility to my faith and my country to give and not just receive. I was saddened by the nasty, cynical responses that I received to my first post but I still have hope. So I again pose the question, will you help America and President Obama.

Thanks for your thoughtful answer (both times) and I couldn't agree with you more!
Same thing I've been doing. I help feed and cloth the homeless, I take an active role against child abuse and neglect, I clean up after litterbugs, do what I can to live a green life, I live and preach personal responsibility and lead by example. I also take an active role in politics on a local level.
It's good that you are going to take action too. Don't let these dolts diminish what you are doing, they didn't spring from their mothers with a pen in hand signing up to volunteer. We all get the call from someplace whether it comes from within, inspired by what we have seen, or it comes from inspirational words. What is important is the action.
