Once upon a time (in 2008) there came a presidential candidate... his name: Barak Hussein Obama. Little was known about him but(funny?), most of the establishment media curiously weren’t very curious about him... it was such a GREAT story, the first African-American (aka: black) with a good chance to be elected president, (no matter he had no birth certificate)! The big media were enthusiastic players (and salespersons)in this political scenario, soon casting aside the normal questions as to qualifications and background and also tossing aside the assumed Democrat front runner, Hillary Clinton... for this "clean articulate" new guy! Wild speculations ensued, tingles went up/down media pundit's legs, and adoring praise was heaped upon “HIM” creating a kinda messianic figure! For a mostly unknown, unvetted first term Senator from Illinois... go figure?(Never lets fact get in the way of a good story!). The excitement generated by the media sales job encouraged lotsa folks to “buy”. Especially first time and young voters... it all seemed SO GOOD! We would have a big lovefest, racism would end, the oceans would recede, the world would love us, cheap “green” energy soon available to all, and maybe even our rent and mortgage would be paid! Good times a'comin'... what’s not to like?

Will voters now “sell”? We must wait to see if a beginning of a MASSIVE sell off begins come November... and if will complete in 2012! But the wealth and freedom lost as a result of the “Barak Obama DotCom Bubble” may be incalculable! More assets became worthless, 401K's bombed and trillion$ lost! Maybe just maybe the sales people were a bit dishonest in all these bubbles... Hmmm??? maybe we need MORE federal regulation!

He can have the most brilliant commentary in the world, however it will be discounted because of the name of his blog. Perception does matter unfortunately in this world.
