“But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand,) then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains...”
Mark 13:14

(I realize its a prophecy about Jerusalem but it is still the verse that immediately comes to mind when you say Hillary might actually be elected after Obama.....Gawd save us all!)

Not quite, what we would have is lots of totalitarian states all over the world. The concept of freedom will be forgotten for if it dies here, in the US it dies everywhere.

There will be 2 classes, as there were in the middle ages, wealthy land owners and peasants.

If the LoFos elect Slick Willie’s wife, there will be no rescue of America. It will be officially over.

Yeah, I think this polity is a component of Babylon at that point.

Yes and no. I would phrase it “if the dims are allowed to steal another election as they did in 2012....

There were allot of “interesting” situations that year.

If patriots cannot get the word out about the federal government’s constitutionally limited powers by 2016 then they deserve Hillary.

The world was fortunate that after the collapse of the British and French Empires, we were the ones to step into the gap. That bought the west a good 60 more years that was then squandered the time on socialism, and cultural marxism.

It’s too bad India is in no shape to step up, and that we stupidly emasculated Japan. That would have bought us a couple of decades to get our stuff together.

We’ll we up crap heap if we elect Hillary or a GOP McCain type warnut who wants to be a wartime President. We’ve had 100 years of war with the costs of blood and treasure. We have piled on to that trade deficits, a warped view of the Constitution where wars are not declared and sodomy, which was once a crime, is now a right, a government ruled by lobbyists and a population being diminished by our best and brightest unwilling to marry and create.

What we need is USA nationalism. Build the USA with strength in defense and rebuild our economy. That means screw the world. Another war is existential for us. We have traded China into a powerhouse. We have ignored Russia, a potential ally. Engaged in boots on the ground warfare in Asia and the ME. No matter which side we back, we lose. Others keep clamoring for us to set red lines, to back their efforts at revolution, or to settle century old problems.

No more foreign wartime Presidents. We protect ourselves only or we fade from history. A return to the Christianity of our forefathers would be very welcome.

In a nutshell.....NO MORE BLOOD FOR ISLAM!

One will know when America is lost.
It will be the day the Dem/Repub/Marxist(Obama) leadership sign Amnesty into law.

Tens of millions of foreigners will flood the USA, vote Dem for gimmies and the Dems will have a One Party Socialist/Fascist Dictatorship as they have desired.

There will be USA serfs trying to escape to more free places soon after (China, Russia, Cuba?).

Freedom will be stabbed thru the heart by the “Dems”.

My Take: A Post American world will have a Russia almost as big as the old USSR, China too will be larger. Europe will be broken into 45 nations. Even South America will be broken up. Africa will belong to Russia and China. America will be five nations, Canada, three, Mexico three, Brazil four. Middle class will not be large. Islam will not be very important in this world. Vietnam, Laos, Burma will all be part of China. Much of eastern Europe, Turkey, syria will be part of Russia.
In America we will have a Presidents for life, and no rights as we know them today.

The USA has gone well over 100 years without a Civil War. If the Cow gets elected, that streak may well end.

I almost agree with your bottom line. I don’t think Russia will be in Africa, barring the remote possibility of North Africa. Africa will be cut up by shakily growing Chinese authority and shakily waning European authority.

President for life in America may be in the rump US. In Dixie, such a president would have a hunting accident. We’d be back at the Celtic warlord model. Affable if possible, Hatfield and McCoy if not.

We are each day approaching a Social War. It has to be unless Americans are willing to go under and become subordinate to the Third World demographic as illustrated by the clown and his aides currently residing in “OUR” White House. The occupant of the White House and his aides are symptoms of an underlying malaise. I hope the disease can be cured. Time will tell.

Those most immediately affected by the decline of the United States will be the Asian and European countries that outsourced their defense to the United States after WW2.

It's all bad if another democrat follows Obama...

The tipping point for the post-american world occurred 10-20 years ago, courtesy of the Baby Boom generation.

Obama is just putting the nail in the coffin.
