Barack Obama is a clever fellow who imbibed hatred of America with his mother’s milk, but worked his way up the elite ladder of education and career. He shares the resentment of Muslims against the encroachment of American culture, although not their religion. He has the empathetic skill set of an anthropologist who lives with his subjects, learns their language, and elicits their hopes and fears while remaining at emotional distance. That is, he is the political equivalent of a sociopath. The difference is that he is practicing not on a primitive tribe but on the population of the United States.

He seems to be saying that anthropologists are the anthropological equivalent of a sociopath.

Hmmm... Saw the Powers flick, BTW. Nightmare Alley was an amusing look at a hard-scrabble hustler who, after taking from everyone around him in his little carny world, reached for the big money trying to con the very rich with spiritualism, only to find psychology had beat him to it in the form of a femme fatale legit psychologist who took him to the cleaners. A very cynical movie; I can see why this Spengler chap liked it so much. But to borrow a cue from the movie, I think (let's hope so, anyway, 'cause he's better than even money to be the next POTUS!)he is projecting his hatred of America on O'bambi. Check out Putin for President ... of the United States

You never know for sure ... but I doubt that an Amendment would be passed to allow a foreign born to be President. I’m cautious with that statement because people are becoming more and more irrational. I point to the Obomination as evidence of that.
