Another Failed Presidency

Obama is not one of us. That is the main source of his disconnect with the American People.

Aside from the posted article, which is very good, I am reposting a comment from a related thread which I think nails the Obama mindset, formed in his youth. It explains how he could be so disconnnected from the real USA.

Mostly, I think, it was his first 10 years of life that formed his distorted perception of the USA.

Like Obama, I was born overseas of American parent(s). Although I attended grade school primarily in the US, one knows at a very early age that you are somehow different. Just going to the globe and showing where you were born to your classmates puts you in a different category. Obama, for him, was born "overseas" when he started school in Indonesia. His peers would have asked the same questions and he would have shown them Hawaii (after 1959 a state). His peers would not have been just curious but very likely branded America to the extent that little old Barry would have to have gone out of his way to avoid being the "ugly" American. He may have developed his deceitful character that has been so good to him at that time, given he's so expertly sincere when telling Obama's (that's lies, misinformation and deceit to Libs).

As the Jesuits have said, give me the a boy until he's ten and I'll show you the man. His later years in the Land of the Elite Socialists simply reinforced this to the point where he views himself as a historic person out to make America conform to the rest of the world. And thus, he has no real understanding of American founding principles and uniqueness of individual freedoms. Freedom is just a talking point to him.

In the end, Barry is just a little Indonesian boy raised reacting as one should expect as a product of an American-hating society intellectually underpinned through his exposure to the socialists and American-bashing elite of his secondary and post-secondary teachers, mentors and religious leaders. He will not change. He has no basis to compare. He really is trapped in his own mind with no way to deviate nor motivation to change. He will become increasingly bitter and vile as time progresses. After all, the USA is the Great Satan, for real, in his mind.

In my opinion, this whole sordid mess is one more reason to reject this failed "presidency." It is very highly likely that it is also a usurped presidency by one who is constitutionally not qualified. If that were not enough, he lacks the qualifications to lead this nation because he is not a product of this culture. I think the framers of the constitution had this in mind when they required any presidential office-holder to be a natural born citizen, presuming that such a requirement would most likely secure a candidate that was part of the American political and religious culture - part of who we are, and not someone who views us from a cultural distance.

Unfortunately for us in our present situation, we have the worst of all worlds; a person who not only fails the natural born citizenship test, but profoundly fails the cultural test, being a Muslim (in hiding) and a strong rejector of the America we know. He grew up having to defend this nation to people who were incapable of knowing or identifiying with the real US culture - and who were religiously biased against it right from the get-go, and thus he acquired a distaste for and even a hostility for the America we know and love. All the time he never knew us and was not a part of us. He is actually a foreigner - both in the office and in our culture -and that explains perfectly why he projects such a false image of who we are, and who he is. He isn't one of us.

Truly, God help us all. This man is hugely dangerous.
