Things do not happen in isolation or by coincidence. The question to ask is what was the predicate for the 2012 shift.
I believe that is clear with what the media and TPTB pulled off in 2008 with the Obama candidacy/election in the face of clear issues with his NBC qualification. Back that up to its predicate, Obama’s fraudulent election to the Illinois Legislature.
“I believe that is clear with what the media and TPTB “
I know what NBC is, but what is TPTB?
Folks, we have plenty of space to type out acronyms.
Also, while the American people aren’t stupid per se, the great majority had been, for many years, too shallow, lazy and self-centered to engage in critical thinking. They would rather have had “the media” do their thinking for them.
However, this appears to be changing. It’s encouraging.
The media found out a long time ago how easily they could manipulate opinions by giving a partial story. I often suspected it before I figured it out, but finally in the Terri Schiavo era (2003-2005) I caught on for real.
The media convinced more than half the country that Terri was brain dead and that she was hooked up to machines that were keeping her alive. None of that was true. Yet they relentlessly pursued a private citizen requesting her death sentence.
Why? Who had Terri harmed? Who had Terri injured? Absolutely no one, but they had to have her removed from this earth. She was a non-person to them. Her living another day, and another year was too much proof that she was alive, though extremely disabled.
She wasn’t fit to continue on to her natural death in their eyes. She had to have her sustenance removed. She had to be done away with. Terri was like a piece of trash waiting to be picked up by the garbage man.
The media had an agenda, of laws they wanted to pass, so they misrepresented Terri’s condition.
By any means necessary. That’s the left’s way of doing things. They don’t tell us the truth, because they would LOSE if they told us the truth.
