do you seriously think this is the norm? this is one particular case where for what ever reason, she was paid less than her male counterparts. maybe management felt the other 3 men did their job for effectively than this lily ledbetter. but to label an entire country this way is ridiculous. none of you were involved in this particular situation so to have a bill drafted over this is unbelievable. do you seriously think if you were a manager and decided to pay the girls less nothing would be done

if this election was up to the rest of the world, Obama would be re-elected. Please dont look at the economy and make a big mastake with who you vote for. Economic crisis is everywhere. Even Germans still have to battle it although our economy compare to most countries is the strongest. I am German/ Ghanaian and i support Obama. So America please make us all PROUD!!!
