America's 10 year anniversary of 9/11

1. What was 9/11 all about and how has it changed America.?

     To me, 9/11 was most horrifying day in my existence. I believe it was all about a radical religious movement to undermine and and destroy our very way of life. In a small way, America created 9/11, this dates back to the 1980's when America was supporting Afghanistan in their war against the Soviet Union.
     America changed so much since the 9/11 attacks, we have changed our security, how we view our enemies, and how our enemies view us.

2. Was the September 11 attacks an eye opener for America? Write about America's reaction to the event.

     Of course 9/11 was an eye opener for the United States, it changed everything in our country, from the US creating a new agency (Homeland Security), to the way we live our everyday lives.
Our reaction to 9/11, of course led us into war, first against Afghanistan, and then against Iraq. Another reaction, was the way we viewed the Muslim world, and how religious profiling come into view.

3. Will President Obama be re-elected? Which GOP contenders will give him the biggest challenge?

     I think there is a good chance President Obama will not be re-elected, I base this on the state of the economy, and his promise of change. I believe Obama has not done anything to improve our economy. I believe Rick Perry might give President Obama a run for his money in the next Presidential elections.

4. What is the biggest challenge facing America today, and how can it be solved?

     I believe the biggest challenge facing America today is the economy, and how we need to improve it. With the unemployment rate at an all-time high, I believe we need a President we can fix this problem.
