Interesting that the last 2 Democratic Presidents have both had “issues” about being abandoned by their fathers.

Yes that is an interesting observation. It makes me appreciate Ronald Reagan and his achievements even more. He had an imperfect dad as well. Many Americans have grown up without fathers, due to misfortune, abandonment and other causes, and have not parlayed that into traitorous behavior against this Republic. No way could Obama have been elected without the concerted effort of a myriad of forces, international and home grown, bent on destroying this country for their own particular purposes. His background made him the perfect candidate to front for the powers behind the teleprompter.

Excellent point. The entire democrat party has ‘father issues’. That’s why they are always trying to replace the father with government. Government becomes the father archetype. Isn’t it interesting too that while the leftist dems decry colonialism/imperialism elsewhere, their policies are actually the very definition of colonialism/imperialism at home. They want the government to be all powerful and ruling over the ‘peasants’ of America.

Actually no one really knows who slick Willie’s father was. I am not so sure about Obama either.

Further complicating the matter is the fact that Obama almost certainly didn't write Dreams From My Father. Instead, the book was William Ayers' doing.

Conceivably, Obama could have romanticized the father who abandoned him and he never knew. But Obama's anti-imperialist views aren't far removed from Ayers', either.

Partly why they’re both heroes of the left. Their litmus.
