My biggest fear is - who will be writing the history.

Historians write history by quoting each other.

I believe a hundred years from now Obama will be known as America's illegitimate president and will serve as a warning; something to guard against. Otherwise, he will be a forgotten president.

Donald Trump on the other hand will rank with George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. He will be known as one of America's greatest presidents. The man who Restored America.

History can also be wrong, very wrong, sometimes.

Case in point is McCarthyism. Despite 'Blacklisted by History' and other sources trying to rectify things, the prevailing "history" is wrong.

Another case, perhaps entering its own "blacklisted by history" phase, is Watergate. The recent March Imprimis explains. Watergate trying to repeat itself with Trump...

“I’m willing to let history determine what’s historic.”

That’s a very nice sentiment.... as if “history” is somehow guaranteed to be honest, objective and agenda-free.

Unfortunately, today’s fake news becomes tomorrow’s fake history.

Who decides which versions of events - witness accounts, research analysis, evidence, etc.. - will be selected for inclusion in the history books of tomorrow and taught as “history”?

Are tomorrow’s history professors, scholars and researchers somehow immune from the Leftist agendas that produce today’s fake news?

I think not.

Yeah, I recall how the media breathlessly reported on Brak having “an historic poo”.
(Mild exaggeration, but not by much.)
