He went because he wanted the public to view that speech as a defining moment in his political career, while at the same time he wanted to invoke the memory of Kennedy and his speech in Berlin.
He is so shallow that in his mind “young, President Kennedy and Berlin” = “young, President Obama and Berlin”.
Remember, he has said Caroline Kennedy would be his Ambassador to Britain, just like her grandfather Joe Kennedy was.
It is all image over substance with Obama and his campaign.
I firmly believe they do these types of shenanigans because the uneducated or ill informed will latch on to the imagery and see him as being presidential. They don’t listen to what he says or ask questions about what he believes. They just sit back in awe of him.
I know there are some educated people buying this but in my world, no one is buying this.
I CAN ONLY SAY THIS: IF THIS COUNTRY ELECTS THIS MAN, THEN SOMETHING, SOMETHING DEATHLY WRONG IN THIS COUNTRY...AND IT’S TIME TO THINK TWICE ABOUT WHAT YOU PLAN ON DOING WHEN YOU RETIRE...
This is not stupid thinking...I never thought I would have to worry about my future living in this country, but the president of the USA leads the world.
Obama will send us down a different path. Many thought at first, that maybe this guy is different and what he proposes is different.
But all now know, that he is no different and in many ways is worse. He’s a product of the Chicago machine politics and it shows.
