Although I believe they are both married, it would definitely be in the realm of possibility.

Men in that part of the world, due to the strict segregation of the sexes, are prone to engage in and rationalize homosexual behavior:

Barak Obama, as someone who was abandoned by his father and virtually abandoned by his mother would fit the profile for someone who would experiment sexually.

I also need a research staff.

I spent quite a bit of time trying to track down Carlos Egan.

Drew mentions that Egan was another socialist professor that influenced Obama.

If anyone has any leads on Egan or Caroline “Gross-Bauman”, please let me know.

THe above team are excellent in finding almost anything.

Here's your assignment if you chose to accept it:

Note that I only heard 2nd hand that he (John Drew) will be on Monday’s show. I didn’t hear it myself or see it posted anywhere. They apparently don’t have a next day’s schedule on the website. Only a schedule for the current day. I hope it’s true. :)

You and I both do not view Obama as charismatic. Fortunately for him, we are not part of his target audience.

John Drew spent a lot of time studying charismatic leaders and speaks of Obama in those terms. My post piggy backs off his ideas.

That being said, Obama’s chief campaign strategist, David Axelrod, is a specialist on running cult of personality type campaigns. While Obama may not appear charismatic to us, you can bet that David Axelrod spent quite a bit of time and money figuring out how to package him as a charismatic leader to others.

Here is a post that I did on a how Obama was packaged for single females (where he had an unbelievable 41 point spread over McCain):

http://johnquincy.blogspot.com/2010/02/obamas-new-math.html

Almost every study of a “charismatic” leader is obsessed with the conditions that led to their rise. It is this obsession that Drew has in regards to Obama. A certain set of conditions need to exist for these leaders to ripen.

Everyone say a prayer for Dr. Drew. What he is doing is very courageous and he can expect nothing less than a severe mauling by the media when this gets out.

If the Republican Party were truly doing anything remotely close to their job not to mention the media, we would not be in a situation where someone like me is sitting at the kitchen table trying to help get a message out along with Dr. Drew.

Here is what Drew says about his Breitbart performance:

“In retrospect, I wish I had been more concise. I’m not ready for prime time. My dream is someone will edit this down to a 3-4 minute piece - legally - that can be easily retransmitted. Nevertheless, I’m grateful I got an opportunity to share what I know.”

Believe me, it was not a simple task to attempt to edit it down.

While he says a lot of intelligent things, they are not tailored to fit the 30 second political sound bite. You can tell he probably gives some interesting lectures but this is a different the showcase.

He does not have anyone to help him package this. Does anyone really believe the Democrats would not be sending handlers to coach and fine tune the message?

Was that “Tweet”, or whatever it’s called, from John Drew himself? Because it might have been someone who saw my posting of it here and then posted it there.(?)

Here is Dr. Drew’s most popular internet post to date:

http://www.resistnet.com/profiles/blogs/who-is-president-obama

“I’m probably going to reach the largest possible audience when I’m on the air with Steve Malzberg in New York City and Washington, DC at 4:00 p.m. EST on Monday, February 15, 2010.”

Carleton professor believed to be among Honduran crash victims
Star Tribune: Newspaper of the Twin Cities - Tuesday, October 24, 1989
Author: Suzanne P. Kelly; Staff Writer

Carlos Egan , a 40-year-old political science professor at Carleton College in Northfield, Minn., is believed to be among 131 people killed Saturday in the crash of an airliner in Honduras.

(snip)

Grow said Egan came to Carleton this fall as a one-year replacement for a faculty member who had taken a leave of absence. He was returning from a trip to Nicaragua to visit his fiancee when he was killed. Egan’s fiancee, Gloria Bacon, is the artistic director of the Modern Dance Company of Nicaragua.

(snip)

Egan had been scheduled to return to the United States on Oct. 16, but was bumped from several flights.

(snip)

Egan, an Argentinian, has been a consultant to the U.S. State Department, the National Endowment for the Humanities, the Commission on U.S.-Latin Relations and the American Assembly Association of U.S. Attorneys General.

Before joining Carleton’s faculty he taught at Williams College in Massachusetts and Occidental College in California, the University of California at San Diego and the University of California at Berkeley.

Carleton officials said Egan is survived by his parents, who live in Wilmington, Del.
