Obama's Woes


Obama had the light
Light of hope
Light of the poor
Hope would Come

That light has become grey
Grey of the light
Is there light
Light of Hope

Light of the Oval
Oval in surrender
Light of the Left
Light no More but SURRENDER

The WINNER is JFK

Gallup: Has done a poll on the popular rankings of US Presidents in the last fifty years, the winner was President Kennedy, but 2nd was Ronald Reagan. One has to wonder what a Kennedy vs. Reagan election fight would have produced, who would have won, lets recall in 1960 Kennedy won a narrow win over Richard Nixon, so how would he have fought a Hollywood Star at the time, interesting what IF of history folks. That’s a challenge to some history programme, get to two ads agencies to run a Campaign over a month, see who would win, enough historical material for the ads, come on reality TV, do something interesting like that, it would be informative and a challenge.
 

The Dark Side of Richard Nixon

The New York Times: Reports on offensive remarks by the late President Richard Nixon when it comes to people of race and religion. Lets be honest Richard Nixon didn’t like people in general, and Liberals the top spot for his loathing. But also lets be fair, which President spent years having a racist preacher, the very same preacher who got him to Chicago politics. The very same President who was critical of the police when it involved his friend, and told Republicans that they would have to sit at the back of the bus, a reference to African - Americans pre Civil Rights who has to give up their seats to white people and sit in the back of the bus, lets see who would be that President, YES, President Obama, no wonder there is no reference to that in this article.

Obama and the Liberal Left


The White House: Reports on President Obama’s weekly address to the American people and his support for the tax cuts. The Obama White House has a great fear that POTUS will be challenged in 2012, thus President Obama stated the following on the Bush 43 tax cuts,Now, I recognize that many of my friends in my own party are uncomfortable with some of what’s in this agreement, in particular the temporary tax cuts for the wealthy. And I share their concerns. It’s clear that over the long run, if we’re serious about balancing the budget, we cannot afford to continue these tax breaks for the wealthiest taxpayers – especially when we know that cutting the deficit is going to demand sacrifice from everyone. That’s the reality. " In basic politics folks Obama cant go in to an election in 2012 with the pledge to raise taxes, the last Democrat to do that was former Vice - President Walter Mondale and he lost 49 states to Ronald Reagan. In essence Bush 43 has won, Obama will have to keep Bush 43 tax cuts or lose in 2012, does President Obama really want to be a one term President.

The Upstaging of a President



Why do they do it to themselves, today we have former President Bill Clinton in the White House, he looked Presidential, who would have thought when compared to President Obama. This is not new, when former President Ronald Reagan met Bush 41 it according to sources drove Bush 41 up the wall, there was the Reagan the President, then his former VP who was President but the light was on Reagan. One would think the White House would have someone who knows history. I guess people repeat the same mistakes.
