Although Obama never conceived himself as playing a universal role when he launched his presidential bid, he awakened at some point in the campaign to the realization that he was no longer running merely for president of the United States. He was being selected for the much grander “office” of leader of a new world community. His credentials for this position were impeccable. Humanity as a concept formally includes everyone, but it is especially favorable to those who have previously been excluded from full recognition. (The old aristocrats, in Comte’s description, were hardly part of Humanity.)
Having decided as a young man to identify himself as African-American, Obama was in the category of the dispossessed, a member of a race against which some of the greatest crimes in history were perpetrated. This fact immediately commended him to Western intellectuals at the same time that it enabled him to be the plausible representative of the teeming masses of the Third World. No one from a privileged race could ever have fulfilled this role. Just as important was the fact that Obama is not purely African-American, but a product of amalgamation, what the French approvingly call métissage and Harry Reid describes less felicitously as being “light skinned.” Obama is postracial or, as he himself put it, a “mutt.” This look, favored among international fashion models, represents physically the common denominator of humanity. Religiously, too, Obama, though a Christian, has ties through his father to Islam, a fact he proclaims on some of his overseas trips. He was the embodiment of all men. Finally, while holding these biological qualities of both the dispossessed and of humanity, Obama is a member of the clerisy of the Religion of Humanity, having been credentialed at Columbia, Harvard, and Chicago

Utopian Horse Manure! Obama is a high priest!
How many remember this pro Obama video “American Prayer”?

This article is somewhat tedious but boils down to: we’ve been had.

Reactions to Obama being selected to a grander office of "leader of a new world community"....
And from the general public...
Yep!

After saying, "Well, bless his soul..." she couldn't hold back...
Shoving aside the media pap, the roots of Obama worship came from a single photo in 2007: A shirtless Obama running up the beach out of the surf. The mainstream media went into a frenzy of homosexual and lesbian masturbation, Chris Matthews leading the pack. “First Black President” is their holy mantra, as first black or first gay or first woman or first crossdresser demonstrate their values.
A Community Organizer?
Moreover, Obama is not a Christian.
He belonged to a racist "church" of Black Liberation Theology - which is not the worship of Jesus Christ.
Well, of course. That's inevitable when one believes he can replace God, which is the ultimate result of any follower of "the Religion of Humanity."
Ah stuff it, Bozo. Obama never saw anything like those things and he had everything handed to him on a silver platter including the office he now holds.
Winging jackasses, no one's listening anymore. And as for “greatest crimes in history”, THAT is way debatable
One can't escape the sense of religion and Obama as diety that his campaign and his administration has fostered.
More important, though, is the assessment of his followers -- the worshipful. Literally, children of Comte.
“we’ve been had.”
LOL, thanks for summarizing it for us.
This is a singularly vital understanding of the Obama effect.
Progressives believe that traditional American values and Terrorism stem from the same root. The "Bush did it" mantra captures the belief system of antidemocratic forces across the globe.
Obama's embrace of every dictator and his repudiation of every leader of the free world demonstrates his intolerance of constitutional guarantees and his insistence upon leadership by elitist fiat.
This is easily the most dangerous man to hold high office in the history of our republic.
A succinct evaluation of the situation.
He's not a blithering incompetent, like Jimmy Carter.
He's not the soul of corruption, like Bill Clinton.
He's much more than either. And both.
