The power-brokers have conned Pres. Obama into thinking that it was they who elected him.
The power-brokers have falsely conned Pres. Obama into thinking that it was they who elected him into office.

They've made him believe that it was their influence, their money, their manipulations and machinations that put him in officce

When in reality they were minor players.

It was his mothers love that got him to where he is today.

It was the love of his wife and children, and grandparents, and friends and family and community.

It was his faith in God that brought him to the heights.

And finally it was we the people who saw reflected in him their goodness, their truth, their lives, this is why WE elected him.

It wasn't the MONEY. It wasn't the bankers. It wasn't the corporations.

THEY WERE BEHIND ALL THE CANDIDATES!

They will lie to and lobby you.

They will make you believe you can't be a great president without them pulling their devious strings.

Just the opposite is true.

They will wield their political tricks until they destroy you. Like they did with Clinton.

You have entrusted to you the awesome power of the American people.

With it you can:

End Poverty.

End Homelessness.

End the wars.

End the inequities that breed terrorism.

Bring an end to global warming.

Usher in the era of green power that will transform the planet.

Rebuild America and the world.

Educate every citizen to the utmost of their abilities.

Bring us single payer not for profit health care.


The power brokers, money lenders, war profiteers and bankers are only here for one thing.

To bend you to their will and make you powerless to effect real change.

They did NOT get you elected, they are NOT empowering you, You do NOT need them.

You only need us, and we need you.

God Bless and Good Luck Barack.

1. He wasn't 'conned'. Wrong heading there. President Obama
told the truth, and that should have told the naysayers to lay off. But no one could believe he was the real deal and telling the truth. That's made a big difference.

5. And they are lying. WE put him there, and he's handling it as best as he
can, and doing a fine job. Fuck anyone who thinks otherwise, or wants to take credit for what they didn't do.

4. Your headline is misleading,
but your sentiments are DEAD RIGHT ON!!!!!!!!!

I was thinking today that Obama has done more good stuff in a bit over two months than Fuckface did in eight years. And Obama has managed to undo some of FF's ugliest moves.

But, he's going to do it all right. I have no doubt of that, because his character is solid and he is intellectually and emotionally honest. I have that much faith in him. I don't agree with him about Afghanistan, but I have to believe that our President knows more than I do, so I'll trust him, even if I don't like it.

He's not conned by anyone, grahamhgreen. Not our President Obama.

Wait until his second term. He'll be perfectly free to do everything, and it will be wonderful.

Thank you for a grand post.
