Yes, and the comparison is very apt. Obama has repeatedly copied what one might describe as Hitler's "playbook."
For my original observations on this, see Leftwing Chickens Coming Home.
Consider the many, many parallels. The use of many of the same stadium speech techniques. The demonization of a targeted 1% of the population--a technique urged by Karl Marx as long ago as the 1840s, and clearly adopted by Hitler against the Jews (also Marx's original target.) The willingness to repeat the same lies, over and over again, until they have credibility to the susceptible. The purging of career military personnel, who show any independence of thought. Etc.
Call it a strength of the American system which allows tyranny to progress at a much slower pace, requires regular elections and puts more checks and balances on the head of state from becoming a dictator.
Obama has been issuing all sorts of Executive Orders, by the way, which more and more show where he would like to go. But my point is not that we are there; or that Obama has been as successful in terminating American traditions, as Hitler was in terminating German traditions. But his approach to the power seeking game was remarkably similar--and continues to be such--even down to stirring up mobs in the street.
IF the Lord allows us to even have a chance at electing a President and Congress in 2016 and take office in 2017, who will truly hold to the Constitution and the Amendments AND do what the Word of God tells them to do, Dr. Ben Carson will likely serve as Surgeon General, as he would be a perfect choice.
I don’t think that Dr. Carson is being one bit wrong in voicing his very frank diagnosis of 0; he is being truthful, and if the American people can’t deal with a potential President that speaks the truth, then once again they are horribly in trouble of electing an even more evil personage to the WH.
You have a valuable treasure trove of links on your Freeper page. I’d rather have you in my corner than 10,000 shallow thinkers.
I agree he’s not Presidential timber. If Rubio runs for POTUS he can not run for his Senate seat in 2016. Dr Carson retired o south Florida somewheres and that would be an excellent place for him to begin a political career.Run for Marcos senate seat. Both Charlie Crist and Debbie Loud Mouth Schultz say they are not intrested. Florida has so many northern immigrants moving down here the state won’t stay RED statewide for long. But in local elections outside of heavy democrat areas it will do just fine.

The arguments that I employ are battle tested. Nothing devious, just intended to cite often over-looked bits of reality that the Left generally ignore in their cloud-borne wish lists.
Cheers--to the extent there is anything to be cheerful about in today's trials.
“I take it you disagree with Carson? Or is it that he isn’t politically correct enough”
Neither. A majority of conservatives barely know who he is. Yes, he’s working to change that. But “darling” implies something different.
“BEN CARSON: OBAMA IS A PSYCHOPATH
No argument from me.”
Nor me!
