MOD NOTE: WALTER E. WILLIAMS DID NOT WRITE THIS!!
Walter E. Williams, (born 1936 in Philadelphia , Pennsylvania ) is a conservative American economist, commentator, and academic. He is the John M Olin Distinguished Professor of Economics at George Mason University , as well as a syndicated columnist and author.
Can President Obama be defeated in 2012? No. He can't.
I am going on record as saying that President Barak Obama will win a second term. The media won't tell you this because a good election campaign means hundreds of millions (or in Obama's case billions) of dollars to them in advertising. But the truth is, there simply are no conditions under which Barak Obama can be defeated in 2012.
The quality of the Republican candidate doesn't matter. Obama gets reelected.
Nine percent unemployment? No problem. Obama will win.
Gas prices moving toward five dollars a gallon? He still wins.
The economy soars or goes into the gutter. Obama wins.
War in the Middle East ? He wins a second term.
America's role as the leading Superpower disappears? Hurrah for Barak Obama!
The U.S. government rushes toward bankruptcy, the dollar continues to sink on world markets and the price of daily goods and services soars due to inflation fueled by Obama's extraordinary deficit spending? Obama wins handily.
You are crazy Williams. Don't you understand how volatile politics can be when overall economic, government, and world conditions are declining? Sure I do. And that's why I know Obama will win.
The American people are notoriously ignorant of economics. And economics is the key to why Obama should be defeated. Even when Obama's policies lead the nation to final ruin, the majority of the American people are going to believe the bait-and-switch tactics Obama and his supporters in the media will use to explain why it isn't his fault. After all, things were much worse than understood when he took office.
Obama's reelection is really a very, very simple math problem. Consider the following:
1) Blacks will vote for Obama blindly. Period. Doesn't matter what he does. It's a race thing.
2) College educated women will vote for Obama. Though they will be offended by this, they swoon at his oratory. It's really not more complex than that,
3) Liberals will vote for Obama. He is their great hope,
4) Democrats will vote for Obama. He is the leader of their party and his coattails will carry them to victory nationwide,
5) Hispanics will vote for Obama. He is the path to citizenship for those who are illegal and Hispanic leaders recognize the political clout they carry in the Democratic Party,
6) Union members will vote overwhelmingly for Obama. He is their key to money and power in business, state and local politics,
7) Big Business will support Obama. They already have. He has almost $1 Billion dollars in his reelection purse gained largely from his connections with Big Business and is gaining more everyday. Big Business loves Obama because he gives them access to taxpayer money so long as they support his social and political agenda,
8) The media love him. They may attack the people who work for him, but they love him. After all... to not love him would be racist,
9) Most other minorities and special interest groups will vote for him. Oddly, the overwhelming majority of Jews and Muslims will support him because they won't vote Republican. American Indians will support him. Obviously homosexuals tend to vote Democratic. And lastly,
10) Approximately half of independents will vote for Obama. And he doesn't need anywhere near that number because he has all of the groups previously mentioned. The President will win an overwhelming victory in 2012.
GOD HELP US!

Although I’m not sure the Won is unscathed, I agree with the rest that we take shots at those we don’t like. It’s kinda the point of the forum. We have to distinguish between the candidates and that’s done in a rough-and-tumble way around here, that’s for sure.
I don’t support Trump for president, for instance, but I sure like his aggressiveness and criticize a lot of our own people for their lack of same. So is that a problem?
That’s a very good question that I think can only be answered by the FReeper who posted it here.
And he fills in for Rush regularly - good enough for me!
Thanks for the explanation, I can breathe again.
Unless you are a returnee, your signup date is after the great purge of ‘07 (or was it ‘08?). Suffice to say, sometimes the civil discourse isn’t.
The independents and whites put him in and they are going to take him out. I don’t think there will be many “white guilt” votes out there in 2012. By the time Trump gets through with the Rosie O’Donnell ghetto beatdown there will be no independents left and if Trump runs he will peel off Democrat votes.
By Next Novemeber I’m betting its anybody but Obama time.
The Soros funded MoveOn.Commie pulls a “fake but accurate” bit of fraud and they DARE spin wild tales of “conspiracies to deny Obama’s natural born citizenship status”.
They have their OWN Stalinist fabricators of fraud to steal the 2012 election.
This could happen, but not if we unite behind and help all we can our best candidate. We have plenty of very good ones to get behind. We have more good young talent in the GOP then we have ever had, lets not blow it.
No, I started in 2008. I try to keep it civil. I don't like to fight with other conservatives. I like to work together with other conservatives. I've had enough fighting with marxists and libs to last a lifetime already. FR is great because they zot the libs. I love that!
Busted clock, twice per day, etc. Even though to them it was sarcasm or disinformation (which it isn't).
Those people that Williams mentioned already voted for Gore and Kerry. Percentage-wise and especially their distribution, I think are not enough to have 0bama win by default. Besides, presidential election is still decided state by state. 0bama is likely to lose “Bush States” that he won: FL, OH, NC, VA, MO. My concern is NV and CO, judging from the Senate election last year.
Blah, blah, blah minorities. Back the middle class white vote off 10% in IN, OH, NC, FL, and WI. as see what happens.
Uh, do you even know who he is? Apparently not.
...and hope for (or plant) a Perot-type third-party candidate to split the conservative bloc apart.
Walter E. Williams is a Freeper and a friend of Jim Robinson’s and he is not a “a black, DC-centric Democrat”. Do have a problem with that?
And...don’t you understand all the dissension here at FR is calculated fodderall?
Leftist Obots are running wild in disguise at FR.
Their mission is to tear at the fabric, disrupt any unity, definitely head off any building of critical mass in support of a strong GOP contender.
Look, you’ve never known such low lifes as militant leftists—they will lie, shapeshift, sell their own mother to achieve their objective.
Masking as highly principled conservatives—rigid in their “convictions”, while listing every negative on the strongest GOP contenders under some ‘purist litmus test’ is a cake walk for them.
Their religion is Divide and Conquer.
We are infested with cyber termites, aka Obots, at FR.
Stay keen.
Williams a Democrat? You’re living up to your screen name.
Better let Rush Limbaugh know that his sometimes "Radio show Guest Host",
Dr. Walter E. Williams, is a democRAT..!
