Sharon Potter, Iraq War Veteran: "The President delivered on his promise to end the war in Iraq."

Leave a note for the troops: https://my.barackobama.com/sharonpott...

Sharon Potter is the first female in the state of Nevada to receive a purple heart by way of serving in Iraq. She stands with President Obama because of his continuing fight to ensure that our nation's veterans and military families are taken care of.

In Sharon's words:

"As veterans we're the ones that sign on the dotted line with our lives and no veteran should have to come home and fight for their benefits."

Thank YOU, Sharon, and all of our wonderful Vets who have "stood the watch". I am a Disabled Veteran (USMC) who works with Vets and active duty Air Force and Nellis AFB. Every day I work side by side with these troops and other Vets like myself and I can tell that the baton has been passed very well into capable hands. Live on, be well, be safe.....and God bless. Semper Fi!!!!!

Our country does not necessarily have a bright future. But with Obama we can strive to be the best we can by working on things that actually matter. Obama '12.

Yeah. Maybe we did stay too long. We just had to be sure Al Queda was gone for good.

[jacob cooper]

He did end the war, but when running for office he said it would be the first thing he would do......

[Alex Will]

I'm disappointed Obama didn't do this sooner it took him about three years to finally do this and he almost followed bush's plan for this

[WesOrion]

Bush signed the status of forces agreement with Iraq before he left office that proclaimed when the pull out would start and finish.

[WesOrion]

LOL, Bush mandated that all troops would leave Iraq before he left office by signing a status of forces agreement with Iraq.
