"Change will not come if we wait for some other person or if we wait for some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek"-- BARACK OBAMA

"The Communist Party USA views the 2008 elections as a tremendous opportunity to defeat the policies of the right-wing Republicans and to move our country in a new progressive direction.
The record turnout in the Democratic Presidential primary races shows that millions of voters, including millions of new voters, are using this election to bring about real change. We wholeheartedly agree with them."

After the election....
A Landslide Mandate For Change
A breakthrough election
Congratulations on an extraordinary history making election!
We can think back with pride to decades of hard work toward our strategic goal of a big enough, broad enough and united enough labor and all-peoples movement that could overcome the ultra-right blockage to all progress. That all peoples movement has come to life, it is dynamic and it has the potential to keep growing.
The election of Barack Obama and a strengthened Congress creates new conditions in our country. There is now the possibility to shift gears and move forward. This new day requires us to further develop our tactics in order to continue to deepen and broaden labor and peoples unity.
There are thousands of experiences that we all have had in these momentous days, some large, some small, all of which express the enormity of change in thinking and readiness for involvement that is underway and that steels us for the battles ahead.
The tears of joy we all shared as crowds gathered to watch the election results here and throughout the world dramatize the new moment we are in.

Change is Here, Change is Coming
Sam Webb, National Chair, Communist Party, USA:
Let me begin with a simple observation: If the last 30 years were an era of reaction, then the coming decade could turn into an era of reform, even radical reform. Six months into the Obama presidency, I would say without hesitation that the landscape, atmosphere, conversation, and agenda have strikingly changed compared to the previous eight years.
In this legislative session, we can envision winning a Medicare-like public option and then going further in the years ahead.
We can visualize passing tough regulatory reforms on the financial industry, which brought the economy to ruin.
We can imagine the troops coming home from Iraq and Afghanistan while U.S. representatives participate in a regional process that brings peace and stability to the entire region.
In the current political climate, the expansion of union rights becomes a real possibility.
Much the same can be said about winning a second stimulus bill, and we sure need one, given the still-rising rate, and likely long term persistence, of unemployment.
Isnt it possible in the Obama era to create millions of green jobs in manufacturing and other sectors of the economy in tandem with an attack on global warming?
Cant we envision taking new strides in the long journey for racial and gender equality in this new era, marked at its beginning by the election of the first African American to the presidency?
And isnt the overhaul of the criminal justice and prison system a system steeped in racism no longer pie-in-the sky, but something that can be done in the foreseeable future?
All these things are within reach now!

His ancestry is Kenyan Mohammedan.
Not African American.
That makes him more likely the descendent of slave traders than of slaves.
Mohammedans in much of the world still practice slavery and dominate the world slave trade to this day.

Would be much more accurate to say "many Americans cringe."
I suspect we're right now close to the classic thirdsies divide.
1/3 cringe, 1/3 are more or less unconcerned, 1/3 still think he is great and are thrilled when he speaks.
He is not one of us and neither are the people who sent him and set him up in business at the White House. They are the Ruling Class (I call them the Parasite Class) and they DO NOT WANT TO BE LIKE US OR WITH US.
An interesting graphic I remember from the 2008 election- From polling data, 20% of Conservatives voted for him (normally conservatives vote 1-3% Democrat). Some of that may have been skewed, but I truly believe many Conservatives believed him when he said he wanted to use the best ideas of both sides to forge a moderate coalition. He's not about to get that benefit of a doubt.
All I know is- when Bush was President, unemployment was 4-5%, my family had a 6-figure income, and we were buying gas for $1.60/gallon. Under Obama, we lost our home, we're on Food Stamps, my wife and I are working 2 jobs each, and gas is $3.50 a gallon.
Well D’uh. You put a kenyan born moslem in the whitehouse and of course he’s not going to suddenly change into an American
I know he is not a natural born citizen and I strongly suspect he’s not a citizen at all. When is the secret service going to fulfill it’s vow to protect the Constitution and take the garbage out?
BO loves America like OJ loved Nicole.
His behavior is normal and consistent for an individual whose background is non-American. A reminder that those Founding Fathers knew EXACTLY what they were doing when establishing requirements for the office of POTUS.
Now the real question.
How do we expose enough of this to make the Dems suffer even worse losses in 2012 than they did in the past election?
If it was all effectively exposed this would be the END of the Dem Party of Traitors.
The problem is the MSM shills who carry the water for covering for Barry the Commie Bastard.
If you've found something that Obama isn't awkward and uncomfortable talking about (without his teleprompter) that's your real story.
For many of us, "being an American" was a normal part of our collective upbringing. We learned it in school. We said the Pledge of Allegiance every morning right alongside our teachers. Even in liberal Southern California the day began with the Pledge often followed by singing "God Bless America" or "America the Beautiful." Annual "Flag Ceremonies" were held with quotations from the Declaration of Independence and patriotic songs performed by the student body, in public, for parents and passersby to enjoy. There were even songs that mentioned God. Christmas was celebrated, in school. It was understood that God was integral to the founding of America and that The Creator was the true source of our liberties. Schools reinforced parental authority, being a good citizen, and responsibility to God. Religion was never preached or taught, but it was also never denigrated and never censored.
That's going back a while now. A lot of younger people never lived there.
Barack Obama does not sound like an American because Obama's heart and soul are not American in nature. His thoughts are not American. His attitude and philosophy are not American. He cannot speak from the heart about America because America does not reside there.
Well, maybe, but the assumption looks a little flawed. Even people who are very patriotic can have trouble summoning those feelings for public display.
I'm not saying that's Obama's problem. He's uncomfortable talking about everything when he doesn't have a script in front of him.
But the idea that it's easy for people to talk about the things that matter most to them goes against the way things are.
PING!
Obama hates America and it shows. He cannot hide it no matter how hard he tries. He is a disgrace.
