I’ve been trying to figure out who Obama reminds me of. He struts around with an arrogant self-confidence which is eerie when you consider that he’s only 46 years old with little political experience or accomplishments. He must have an enormous ego that allows him to behave without any modesty or apparent self doubt. He reminds me of Louis Farrakan and the Nation of Islam flunkies that follow him around. The same strutting with the chin in the air, the same superior manner. I think this is enormously appealing to people who derive their sense of identity and belonging by attaching themselves to charismatic figures who promise to take care of them. A David Korish, or Jim Jones, or some of the fascists of the last century.

Isn’t anyone in the news media beginning to feel a little uneasy about this guy? All of these hysterical people falling at his feet almost worshiping him. Is this what Americans want as a president? Some messianic figure who excites this kind of mass adoration? It’s scary.
