Reply #26: I didn't mean to imply that I was doing "so well."

What does the President being "mixed race" have to do with anything?

My family and I are struggling. I have a baby on the way and I don't know how in the hell I'm going to afford child care. We don't qualify for any sort of assistance and are barely meeting living expenses (my husband was out of work for 8 months).

I'm just saying we need to take a closer look at helping each other survive these tough times, while holding our elected officials accountable. We don't have a lot, but we share what food and necessities we have with those in need. We need to be checking up on friends and co-workers who may be struggling. Sometimes it helps just to know there is someone out there who cares.
