Obama warns: if America stays so divided, our democracy and economy won’t survive
Business Insider ^ | 5-26-18 | Julie Bort

Posted on 05/28/2018 7:23:01 AM PDT by dynachrome

Obama believes that one important way we can maintain and increase a national identity, where citizens view themselves as Americans first, rather than members of a particular tribe (like our political party, or race, or gender) is by sharing stories with each other. The more we can do that, the more we'll see each other as fellow humans, rather than as caricatures representing some other tribe.

The very concept of the role of “Community Organizer” is to be a divider: to create an us vs. them environment.

Obama lives in a fantasy world with absolutely no self awareness.

The division in this country today is Obamas creation, and IS the last remaining legacy of the biggest mistake this country has ever made.

The hyperbolic hysterical hatred started before Obama though. GW Bush experienced it. Even during his first election when Florida was contested and Gore didn’t gracefully concede.

In fact, the hatred and evil may have originated with Bill Clinton’s presidency, and not with Bill, but Hill...

“Is that the Caliph’s sage prognostication or a threat?”

That’s what I was thinking.
This sounded more like a threat than advice.

That’s a dog whistle if I ever saw it.

The socialist’s solution is for normal people to surrender. No, thank you.

My solution is to follow the Constitution of the United States - the real, written one that means what the words say. If they comply, we are no longer divided. If not, then I would refer the globalist/thug class to the Declaration of Independence.

What a ditz!

He did all he could to cause and keep the country divided.

He did all he could to cause and keep the ‘new normal’ economy of low production, high unemployment, massive increases in welfare type programs, disappearing industries, etc.

The only thing he accomplished was being a worse president than Jimmy Carter.

This coming from the guy who did all he could to divide us along race and sex.

Liberals are horrible people.

he challenge Americans face today is "how do we maintain that sense of common purpose, our 'in it together,' as opposed to splintering and dividing?

One can not combine the irrational divisive leftard ethics of sacrifice, collectivism, and force with the rational politics of egoism, individualism, and God-given natural rights. They are incompatible and contradictory.

“Obama believes that one important way we can maintain and increase a national identity, where citizens view themselves as Americans first, rather than members of a particular tribe (like our political party, or race, or gender) is by sharing stories with each other.”

So the way to join as one and do away with “diversity,” is to point it out at every opportunity. Why not try doing something for America together that doesn’t point it out. You don’t join by the recognition of separation.

We will just never ever get rid of this Muslim/Marxist usurper, will we?

I am SO sick of him. Why can't he just retire somewhere and shut his lying mouth?

Yes and he caused it. That is why we must destroy all things Obama and not leave a trace.

Amen. It's a commandment in the Torah to blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven, "you shall not forget it".

Remember his Flag Day "vow" on the WTC 1 beam in 2012 (which was DJT's birthday, haha)?

We remember. We rebuild. We come back stronger.

Destroyer-in-chief Barak meant that brazen triple curse *for* America. Instead he caused a triple blessing to be permanently installed on the top of the tallest building in America, same as what happened to Balak when he hired Balaam to curse Israel. Balak - Barak.

America in Bible prophecy is right in plain sight where nobody is looking.

1776 ft = 541 m, the numeric value of Israel. For starters.

On May 10, 2013, the final component of the skyscraper's spire was installed, making the building, including its spire, reach a total height of 1,776 feet (541 m). Its height in feet is a deliberate reference to the year when the United States Declaration of Independence was signed. The building opened on November 3, 2014;[3] the One World Observatory opened on May 29, 2015.[4]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_World_Trade_Center

The 104th floor of the tallest building in the western world features steel signed by the president.

BO, cut down to the ground by the tower-builder man from NYC named Trump. You can't make this stuff up.
