Obama's Mile High Fantasy Flight
Dr. Bill Smith, ARRA Editor:
My Opinion! Barack Obama's move to Mile High is an exercise in stagecraft and a smoke and mirror job for the American people.
First, it is an affront to the Hillary Clinton delegates who would have comprised half the room if Obama were to appear at the Pepsi Center.
It is a calculated move to force networks into the very real choice of only covering his speech on the final day - denying the American people a true look at what the Democrat's platform and policies are all about, and denying the American people a true look into the divided nature of the convention.
If Obama's choice results in the networks only covering one day, would they then feel obligated to curtail coverage of the GOP convention? If so, Obama's calculated move then denies the American people a fair look at John McCain.
This begs the question of the true nature of Obama's calculated decision. Is it because he wishes to keep voters in the dark over real issues and only provide them spectacle? Is it because he is afraid Hillary's supporters might not provide applause (or even boo) a speech in a room that wasn't guaranteed to be stacked with his zealous followers?

How many elderly members of the DNC establishment will be huffing oxygen in the Mile High city? Exaustion, failing health, excitement...
Maybe they are having it there hoping that the thin air will also take the oomph out of the rioters’ sails.
Bread and Circus. The best smoke and mirrors in history.
Somebody in the DNC needs to grab him by the collar and “smarten him up.”
Shades of Nurenberg
Behind it all is a militant anti-American and abject marxist who wants the riegns of power so he can indeed effect change on America.
Thanks for posting that on here. Looks to me like Obama wants to be a dictator.
It’s his practice or warm up for his power moves later on. He is seeinghow powerful his cult of personality is.
The more we educate and inform...the better.
I agree with you 100% that he is seeing how far he can go with his cult of followers based on personality not substance.
