In Barack Obama’s keynote speech at the 2004 Democratic convention, he rebuked “those who are preparing to divide us,” and famously declared, “there’s not a liberal America and a conservative America; there’s the United States of America. There’s not a black America and white America and Latino and Asian America; there’s the United States of America.”
Paradoxically, his unifying speech seven years ago and his divisive rhetoric of today both reveal the president’s governing philosophy, at its very core, is that of a community organizer. The only thing that has changed is the reality of how the economic policies of a community organizer when applied at the national level are themselves, inherently divisive.
Once elected president, Obama’s vision of the United States as a single community collided with one of the fundamental goals of a community organizer, to gain political power for the purpose of transferring resources from those outside the community to those inside the community. By so doing, the community organizer accomplishes several objectives.
First, he serves his community by increasing the resources in that community, from increased government services to expanded payrolls.
Second, the community organizer increases his or her power by direct or indirect control of who benefits from those additional resources and by becoming the spokesperson for the community.
The challenge that Obama faces as president is that the community now consists of the entire United States. When seen through the lens of a community organizer, the vision of a single American community must fracture into those who are inside the community, and therefore deserve favorable treatment, and those who lay outside the community, and who rightfully should fund the community organizer’s goals.

We have to remember that those who elected this amateur are still voting. And I’m not convinced that many of them have changed their minds.
“those who are preparing to divide us,”
Translation:
I’M preparing to divide us.
“there’s not a liberal America and a conservative America;”
Transl:
There’s only ME, America, and those I choose as my fawning suppliers.
At his very core, he is a self-loathing narcissist.
Narcissists lie.
Community organizer? That’s somebody who helps people get more of what’s not theirs. Somebody who encourages and enables people to live as dependent, zombie parasites.
..as Hayek warned in The Road to Serfdom, laws designed to achieve distributive justice must favor some Americans over other Americans.By treating people differently such laws lead to the breakdown of the Rule of Law. As such, the policies of a community organizer at the national level risk sacrificing one of the principles of liberty — that all are equal before the law.
One of the core reasons for American exceptionalism and freedom.
He’s an agitator.
The Alynsky/Communist model is to agitate to the point of conflict, then have the state step in to “provide order”, and the individual subsequently loses freedom.

None of his policies are designed to benefit the US as a whole. They are all designed to cater to groups within his coalition of supporters—unions, left-wing activists, minority groups, gays, trial lawyers, etc. If the Republicans nominate someone too damaged to unite the Republicans and win over the independents, or if Donald Trump runs as an independent, Obama can scrape together enough votes to be re-elected.
