Obama Needs to Do this Immediately Right Now.
Or else something is going to happen.
Why he hasn't already is a mystery to me.
I don't know what they're doing over there.

5. He's going to join the ranks of Bill Clinton, Al Gore, and John Kerry
If he doesn't stop making an ass of himself, lets this news cycle die down a little, tikes the high road, and goes out and HITS THEM WHERE IT HURST!

You can't amke the news until you ARE the news.

8. I think it's pretty clear that you're completely missing the point.
Rather than doing that, he needs to completely refocus his entire staff and campaign message to this. How you could possibly consider an alternate solution is just beyond me. THIS is the key to winning this race.

11. We need to get this to them.
I don't have a phone right now but if they have a number
at the office maybe somebody could call him and tell him
and ask him what they're doing over there and when they
are going to get on this before it's too late.

Now this happens and that will smoothly follow. If that is done out of sequence, all of this will fall apart.

But, this, this...he just has to heed...how could he not

as in the Economic-Bolo-Around-Ankles strategy that
tripped up Kirkaz in his 1622 mayoral run in East
Nelsia. See the youtube of the Kirkaz-Dimpler debate.
