Never before in the history of the presidency, certainly in my life time, was a man elected who had the potential to the most for our country and the world.
He squandered that opportunity.
Those of us here at FR recognized that the man lacked any experience and aptitude for the job, and let’s be frank we saw thru his facade, but just the same we gave him a chance, like we do all presidents.
Within a few short weeks it was clear that he brought nothing to the table. There was nothing that he was going to teach us as Americans, in fact there was more we could teach him.
In the truest sense he was not this generations’ Jackie Robinson, and like the article says, he was not the ultimate roll model for black people in this country.
He was not the Clarence Thomas, Thomas Sowell, Allen West or Condi Rice to young black kids. He was more like Jesse Jackson.
I agree with the article. He had the greatest opportunity to heal, and perhaps on the world stage to lead Muslims to a more Ghandi like passion.
AFTER HE LOSES TOMORROW, AND LOSES BIG, I THINK WE WILL BEGIN TO HEAR THE TRUTH ABOUT HIM AND HIS PRESIDENCY FROM THE INSIDERS FROM THE SS AGENTS TO THE COOKS AND CARETAKERS, AND PERHAPS FROM STAFF MEMBERS.
Then the news media will find his faults, and report them, starting with the man’s background, school transcripts etc etc....Because to not do this would be for them to admit that they were wrong.
Opportunity to heal? Heal What? Heal problems manufactured and sold by a nitwit empty headed buffoon elected by empty headed self absorbed voters.
Obama was a far bigger problem than any problem that needed fixing.
What every made anyone think his BS could accomplish anything is beyond my comprehension. He’s just a tool.
