Yes. Thanks.
You’re being nice
(WAYNE ROOT: All Roads Lead to Obama. He is the Evil “Manchurian Candidate” and Communist Mastermind of Everything Bad That Has Happened to America and President Trump. And I’m a Witness- It All Started at Columbia University)
There’s some crazy 😧 guy on FR that keeps on calling Democrat Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama as a Manchurian Candidate........
Now WHERE is that guy? 😁😂😆🤣🤪🤪
🔝🔝🔝
He was the perfect figurehead and hologram for deep state leftists and globalist-types behind the scenes
This is exactly correct. I cannot believe how many people think that idiot is a "mastermind." No, he's an idiot. His only qualification was he was "black."
Obama is on camera saying that he’d prefer to be ‘in the background controlling things’ vs being the front man in the spotlight. He also said “the Constitution is ‘too constraining’”.
He was a radical and I believe there’s a massive rabbit hole surrounding him.
I find this assertion difficult to believe. Biden was an idiot before he became senile. Everything he did as "president" smacks of Obama and Obama's minions calling the shots.
Bide was too dumb to think of any of this crap on his own. It was Obama people putting stuff in front of him to sign.
I would think a black one would be easier to remember, especially back in that era.
He would kind of stick out, don't you think?
When Wayne Root first started talking about Obama at Colombia, his main point was that nobody there remembered Obama. Now he starts talking about his going to school there with him like he knew something about him.
Here are the names of some of the people who remember Obama at Columbia.
“• Friend and roommate Sohale Siddiqi, interviewed by the Associated Press in May 2008.
• Roommate Phil Boerner, who recalled sharing a New York City apartment with classmate Barack Obama for Columbia College Today and the New York Times in early 2009.
• Michael L. Baron, who taught the year-long honors seminar in American Foreign Policy that Barack Obama took during his senior year at Columbia and recalled in an NBC interview Obama’s “easily acing” the class and receiving an A for his senior paper on the topic of nuclear negotiations with the Soviet Union.”
If not that many people remember him, it’s because it was a large university, he was a transfer who was only there for two years, and he lived off-campus. Not that many people from U of P in the 60s remember Donald Trump, who was also a transfer and spent much time off campus.
Love The Root!
I’ve tried to tell people/lefties for years that when Zero said we had to “fundamentally change” America, he meant it. He’s a communist that wants to destroy America. He’s perfectly happy to get wealthy off our backs, because he’s a good commie; but what is so bad about America that we have to “fundamentally” change?

Soviet Acknowledged Obama One of Them

The First Time I Heard of Barack
During the period of roughly February 1992 to mid 1994, I was making frequent trips to Moscow, Russia, in the process of starting a software development joint-venture company with some people from the Russian scientific community. One of the men in charge on the Russian side was named V. M.; he had a wife named T.M.
V. was a level-headed scientist while his wife was rather deeply committed to the losing Communist cause - a cause she obviously was not abandoning.
One evening, during a trip early in 1992, the American half of our venture were invited to V. & T.’s Moscow flat as we were about to return to the States. The party went well and we had the normal dinner discussions.
As the evening wore on, T. developed a decidedly rough anti-American edge - one her husband tried to quietly rein in.
The bottom line of the tirade she started against the United States went something like this:
“You Americans always like to think that you have the perfect government and your people are always so perfect. Well then, why haven’t you had a woman president by now? You had a chance to vote for a woman vice-president and you didn’t do it.”
The general response went something along the lines that you don’t vote for someone just because of their sex. Besides, you don’t vote for vice-president, but the president and vice-president as a ticket.
“Well, I think you are going to be surprised when you get a black president very soon.”
The consensus we expressed was that we didn’t think there was anything innately barring that. The right person at the right time and sure, America would try to vote for the right person, be he or she black or not.
“What if I told you that you will have a black president very soon and he will be a Communist?”
The out-of-the-blue remark was met by our stares. She continued, “Well, you will; and he will be a Communist.”
It was then that the husband unsuccessfully tried to change the subject; but she was on a roll and would have nothing of it. One of us asked, “It sounds like you know something we don’t know.”
“Yes, it is true. This is not some idle talk. He is already born and he is educated and being groomed to be president right now. You will be impressed to know that he has gone to the best schools of Presidents. He is what you call “Ivy League”. You don’t believe me, but he is real and I even know his name. His name is Barack. His mother is white and American and his father is black from Africa. That’s right, a chocolate baby! And he’s going to be your President.”
She became more and more smug as she presented her stream of detailed knowledge and predictions so matter-of-factly - as though all were foregone conclusions. “It’s all been thought out. His father is not an American black so he won’t have that social slave stigma. He is intelligent and he is half white and has been raised from the cradle to be an atheist and a Communist. He’s gone to the finest schools. He is being guided every step of the way and he will be irresistible to America.”
We sat there not knowing what to say. She was obviously very happy that the Communists were doing this and that it would somehow be a thumbing of their collective noses at America: they would give us a black president and he’d be a Communist to boot. She made it quite obvious that she thought that this was going to breathe new life into world Communism. From this and other conversations with her, she always asserted that Communism was far from dead.
She was full of little details about him that she was eager to relate. I thought that maybe she was trying to show off that this truly was a real person and not just hot air.
She rattled off a complete litany. He was from Hawaii. He went to school in California. He lived in Chicago. He was soon to be elected to the legislature. “Have no doubt: he is one of us, a Soviet.”
At one point, she related some sort of San Francisco connection, but I didn’t understand what the point was and don’t recall much about that. I was just left with the notion that she considered the city to be some sort of a center for their activity here.
Since I had dabbled in languages, I knew a smattering of Arabic. I made a comment: “If I remember correctly, ‘Barack’ comes from the Arabic word for ‘Blessing.’ That seems to be an odd name for an American.” She replied quickly, “Yes. It is ‘African’”, she insisted, “and he will be a blessing for world Communism. We will regain our strength and become the number one power in the world.”
She continued with something to the effect that America was at the same time the great hope and the great obstacle for Communism. America would have to be converted to Communism and Barack was going to pave the way.
So, what does this conversation from 1992 prove?
Well, it’s definitely anecdotal. It doesn’t prove that Obama has had Soviet Communist training nor that he was groomed to be the first black American president, but it does show one thing that I think is very important. It shows that Soviet Russian Communists knew of Barack from a very early date. It also shows that they truly believed among themselves that he was raised and groomed Communist to pave the way for their future. This report on Barack came personally to me from one of them long before America knew he existed.
Although I had never before heard of him, at the time of this conversation Obama was 30+ years old and was obviously tested enough that he was their anticipated rising star.
Then all these people must be liars: https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2011/feb/14/donald-trump/donald-trump-says-people-who-went-school-obama-nev/
Why are you still here, trolling?
“In fairness, in the late 80s, I’m thinking Obama would have stood out a little.”
Perhaps at Alabama, Auburn, or some small Catholic college. At Columbia, only if he wanted to stand out.
My law school graduation class has ~ 10 to 15 black students. I can only recall one of them.
I was at Columbia at the time Wayne and Obama were there. I transferred to Columbia from a American University that was just as mediocre as Occidental College. The difference was that I went to Columbia University’s School Of General Studies. It was easy to get into GS as it was known then. That’s the way Obama did it. Some of the people in the GS crowd that I ran with at the time remember Obama. He was at a poetry reading a couple of us gave in the jazz room at the West End Cafe. Most of my poetry was about like Obama’s poetry. Not great. But a few of my poems were world class. Why? I put the time into them.
Biden didn’t think of this stuff on his own, but it wasn’t Obama or “Obama people” who were pulling his strings. What you’re missing is that the whole Democrat Party in DC was where Biden was ideologically, and they’d moved far beyond where they were under Obama.
We actually know who was running the Biden White House. Some of them (Klain, Kaufman, Blinken, Richetti) were long-time Biden loyalists. They weren’t going to take orders from Obama, who’d expressed contempt for Biden on various occasions. The others (Monaco, Bauer, Dunn, Zeints, Dillon, Reed) hadn’t risen to the top of the heap to take orders from the former guy. Obama had pretty much checked out during his second term. He wasn’t a detail guy. He wasn’t going to be running things under Biden. He probably had conversations with some of the Biden team, but he wasn’t calling the shots.
Some people have the idea that Obama was more of an ideologue than he was. He was definitely a partisan, and he liked to think he was some intellectual, but he was also a Chicago politician. He’d made his bundle in politics, and he was going to enjoy it after leaving office. “The fundamental transformation of America” was political rhetoric for Obama. Democrats came to take it more seriously than he did and tried to put it into effect.
I believe every word of it
Was it in this same era?
