In her letter (Sept. 29), Marjorie Rose blames President Obama for “The destruction of the U.S.” She advises people to watch Fox News and vote for Donald Trump, Ben Carson or Carly Fiorina.

I would advise her to watch less of Fox and broaden her television viewing to include CNN and MSNBC. She will find less doom, gloom and Obama hatred.

I was sent a bumper sticker: “Corporate Media: the rich telling the middle class to blame the poor.” Fox news is part of the corporate media.

Rather than destruction, Obama has brought the economy, left by Bush Republicans, out of the worst depression since the 1930s. He stopped an unnecessary war that cost trillions of dollars and thousands of lives.

The Wall Street banks were building up their own bank accounts illegally with millions of dollars.

Trump has said the U.S. should have taken the oil when forces were in Iraq. Invade a country and steal their oil? That is robbery. I shudder to think of him as president.

By broadening her viewing, Rose could learn about:

• The 99 years of Planned Parenthood’s successful service to women’s health (the attacks against the program are a gross misrepresentation and a bunch of lies);

• The evidence that climate change is real is insurmountable; it is happening now and will get worse;

• Voter fraud is a figment of Republican imaginations. To vote, one must be on a computer list shared by the state and town or city governments
