http://www.cleveland.com/opinion/index.ssf/2012/10/on_the_basis_of_sound_leadersh.html

Today, we recommend President Obama's re-election. He has led the nation back from the brink of depression.

In Ohio we must get rid of gerrymandering by voting yes on issue 2. Everyone should support issue 2 because if passed our representatives wil have to actually represent us not just big money or they cannot be reelected.
