Obama Brings it in the Fourth Quarter
The last time I spoke to the President, about 5 months before the election, I was convinced that he had a brilliant mind. I also felt that whether he played chess or not, his was the kind of thought analysis that could set the Republicans up every time they turned around. It reminded me of what I was told the day I entered High School at the age of 10. My mother said to me: "Son, you have to be three times smarter than the rest of them because of the color of your skin. Remember now, if you are just average they will always put you last, and find every excuse to take away any opportunity for success. You may not understand what I'm saying now, but you will."
What the Right don't know is that the President is three times smarter than they are, and has set them up. Having shown the kind of vitriolic, money-grabbing, charlatans that they are, the Republicans find themselves in a kind of quicksand hole that keeps getting wider and wider and wider as they sink lower and lower and lower. Not only has the American public seen that they openly favor corporate profits over people, but even World policy-makers and diplomats now realize that President Obama is light years ahead of any Republican when it comes to statesmanship.
"Oh!" they say, he wastes his time on Healthcare when he should be concentrating on Afghanistan." But no, the others say, he doesn't care about the American people and keeping costs down because he wants to spend more money in Afghanistan, besides, he is a Socialist, Communist, Arab Muslim who was born in another country, and has come here to destroy America. What dribble . . . and what hypocrites!
I heard some diplomat friends say when I was overseas recently that everyone in London and all Blacks and Whites in the Caribbean are hoping that 25.6 million Blacks and 26.1 million Hispanics combine to vote against the Republicans and lock them out of American politics for generations to come. Is that possible? Yes it is! Why? Because Obama has set them up.
The Republicans led by Michael Steele are, as Scripture says, "wise in their own conceits." Those who grovel at the feet of Rush Limbaugh, Sarah Pallin, and Glen Beck are so out of touch that they do not know a few simple facts of life in America. They do not know:
(1) That statistics are showing that the increasing U.S. Population are all below the $250,000 annual level, which means that the poor and working classes are increasing by leaps and bounds every year.
(2) They are so 'smart' that they can't see that the political strength is now in the hands of college-age students who do not want to pick beans and fruit for a living.
(3) That the millions of young people who were between 14 and 17 in 2008 will be of voting age in 2012, and will be less inclined to vote for old reactionary rich people who won't even admit that people are more important than corporations. What?
Good work Mr. President. This is the fourth quarter, let's take it to them. They are so far out in left field, it will take a brand new political coalition to win at the polls. Besides, youth resents being dictated to, and there is not one Republican leader who has a conciliatory spirit--especially not the Wonder Woman from Alaska.
For What it's Worth . . .
