As of right now, the average amount of time most veterans and their families have been waiting to claim their benefits is over 9 months, an average which is currently rising. This is simply unacceptable. President Obama, we the American People have a duty to the brave men and women who have served for the last decade in the War on Terror to defend our country and the role of democracy abroad. It is an absolute necessity that we ensure these veterans are cared for like the heroes they are. This is a case where there are very few who believe that a complete takeover/ redesigning of the institution by the federal government would be wrong. It is, in fact, held just as much by your opponents as by yourself that this is of the utmost importance. Just remember...that YES YOU CAN!
