Obama wants socialism, this is true, but Russia doesn’t particularly want to overrun us. In fact, while they would vie with us over resources, and definitely want their military power back, several times they have warned us against becoming socialist.

They now have a much smaller, professional military, and nowhere near the capability to “force project.” They can barely maintain their country, and are losing control over Siberia by default, which is almost half their country, but very Russian.

They have only 142m people, and their median age is 38 (35.5 for men, 42 for women, which is too old to be effectively militant. (To explain, the US median age is 37, but we have a lot of old people, and our average life expectancy is 78. The life expectancy of a Russian man is 60. So if you lop off a lot of their aged, as a population they are considerably older overall. Source: CIA Factbook)

What is your definitional difference between socialism and communism?

Are they THAT much different? Not by much I guarantee.

Russia/China/N. Korea/Etc..... all rely upon our own people clearing the way for our enemy and allow (THEM) to step in and take control via diversion and deceit.

Thats ok. \

Most Americans wish to stay ignorant and unprepared so go ahead and relax. You will never know what hit you until to late and your response - “Nobody told/warned me”.

Well you are officially forewarned.

If it doesn’t happen it is because people like me dedicated our lives to preventing such an event to happen,
