Obama Mania



Isn't it funny how everyone in the UK has more affiliation and time for Barack Obama than they do their own Prime Minister Gordon Brown? it's so bad that my sub concious believes Tony Blair is still Prime Minister. There is vague similarity between Tony Blair and Barack Obama. The air punching fist, the rolled up shirt sleeves, charismatic speeches, the family and the love the media has for them.

They both represent change and a positive shift for politics and the countries they represent, and carry their nation on their shoulders - they are both apparently great leaders that are loved an adored across the nation. BBC worldwide did a pole; if Barack Obama was being elected by people from outside the USA, he would have over 80% of the votes? WOW!

PROBLEM!!

If Obama comes into power when the US Economy is in recession, he will be blamed for the fall of the nation! it is quite cynical to think but if you put a black president in charge of a nation with a $trillion deficit, housing market collapse and high energy prices - he won't be able to fix the problem - it will only get worse.

He has to say there is a solution otherwise he wont get elected, but he and many people around the white house know that the problems are long term - the US never say what the long term strategy is to reduce the deficit? instead they use distraction techniques "war on terror" or the "war on rouge states" (which is anyone that doesn't agree with US policy and are too small to defend themselves). China will become the largest economy in the world soon, Russia are too volatile to negotiate with and the UK who are distancing themselves from the US to minimise the public backlash they are facing.

when all of these problem come to a head Obama will be in charge - he will probably be lynched or impeached on some bogus theory linking him to terrorism because of his Muslim roots (another distraction campaign). If it all goes wrong the American public will never want to elect a black leader again - I'm sure many people's true colours will come to light.

It best way to destroy a group is to give them hope and then destroy the beacon of that hope.
