Who is Barack Obama? Who really knows? He refuses to release critical information Americans need to understand who is really is. What are his ultimate plans for America? Who knows? He refuses to say. His only actions are to destroy the economic base of America and to appoint Islamic and Socialist radicals into critical leadership positions. Will America still be 'One nation under God' as our Founding Fathers intended at the end of his current term as president of the United States? The greater question is: will his current term ever end? Wouldn't it be great if our president would respect and praise the United States of America for its achievements and contribution to the greatness of humanity - and not apologize to all corners of the world for our shame and disgrace for being unfair and impudent to the rest of the world? Wouldn't that be great for our future Shouldn't that be the goal and a guiding torch to light the way to higher aspirations of our great nation? Every president before Obama struggled to show America as a shining example to the rest of the world, even during times when the country struggled for mere existence and survival. Perhaps all were not totally successful, but the welfare and progress of the United States were the ideals that guided their path and their decisions. Obama's torch seems to light his path to a different direction for the future of America. His doesn't seem to be focused in the same direction as all other American presidents before him. Shouldn't the safety of citizens and the freedom to develop to their highest and best be the highest concerns for any president or leader? He divides the country by rhetoric and deeds, criticizing those who have been blessed by our great nation to achieve higher levels of prosperity and success. That's the success necessary to offer ladders to others to achieve even more success for themselves. Without successful people with enough to invest in opportunities for others America would not be the shining star of the world. Obama's actions have been to extinguish that opportunity ladder by penalizing those who reach those success levels. He uses magnificent rhetoric to extol his virtues as an economic genius and leader who will help those at the bottom rise to middle-class, while at the same time he kicks the ladder of success from beneath them so they can remain at the bottom. They remain at the bottom with no place to go except to the government to beg for more welfare and direct assistance. As Big Brother, in George Orwell's book, he promises them much - until he no longer needs their votes. Then their concerns are shelved until he needs them again. But, those 'proles' will never abandon him - he is their god. Many already worship him. He is clearly a great deceiver. Who else has that gifted ability to smile into one's face while stabbing that same person in the back?
