I think people give them too much credit. The only essential ingredient in the "plan" was a black guy who could pass for competent. (which he isn't.)
I said back in 1992 that our next presidential candidate needed to be a black guy. (I was favoring Alan Keyes at the time) I *KNEW* he would get an automatic 60% of the black vote, and if he just got an ordinary Republican vote, it would have put him over the top in a landslide.
The media would have had much of their wings clipped in regards to the nastiness they would have been able to direct at him, and he would have won hands down. He could have been able to enact an actual conservative agenda, and there would have been far less pushback against him than there would have been against a white President.
Any efforts to thwart his will would have been hammered with the "Racist" hammer, just as Barack has been getting away with for a long time.
My point is this. There is no particular brilliance in any "plan" to get Barack Obama elected. The only essential ingredient is a Black guy who is passably intelligent and well placed enough to secure the nomination. We could have done this first, and the Liberals would then be pitching a b**ch about how a secret conspiracy pushed this guy into power.
If people had listened to me, we would have done immense good to the nation by beating the Liberals to the punch, but instead we let them do it first.
