Millions of people, not limited to just Americans, are asking this question. Who is this man? Where did he come from? And, where is he taking the United States? Too many questions, and not enough answers. Truly the man is a mystery, an enigma. He is a contradiction at multiple levels, and for someone that claims his administration will be one of transparency and accountability, all this make him a paradox.
Obama suddenly burst on the conscience of America less than four years ago, and more recently the world. Before that, he was a little-known state Senator from the Midwest. Prior to that he had worked in Chicago as a local neighborhood organizer, where he caught the attention of questionable people with his ability to speak well, convey an air of confidence, and get things done in the local community.
If you trace his origins back even further, the mysteries surrounding Obama increase dramatically. As you attempt to pull back the veil and peer behind it, you will be met by a complete darkness that seems to have a life of its own. This living darkness guards its secrets very well, muting any attempt to shine light into it.

“this has been posed. No one is paying attention...”
Then pic it up and post it everywhere else you can think of... MAKE THEM PAY ATTENTION!
I'm sorry, but anyone who doesn't do enough research to know who and what they are electing is a useful idiot.
If you aren't informed enough to recognize that media of all kinds (print, radio & television) is liberal to the core and against everything that honest, hard-working people stand for and that's what you use as your information source, you shouldn't be voting.
These people are useful idiots. The damage already done in 2 months is astronomical.
I disagree. I know folks who just don't use computers (my grandmother, for one, is unwilling to pay for cable/satellite or internet - to her, they are luxury items and too expensive). They would never have voted for Obama to begin with, and were excited as heck over VP Palin. These folks, had never heard about the issues because the press never put them out in the main forums (print, t.v., and radio). Rush didn't even touch on the BC issue.
These folks stay as informed as they can within their means. I would not call these folks (i.e. my grandmother) useful idiots.
I disagree. Just because there is a 'good reason' that people are uninformed doesn't make them any less a useful idiot. If you haven't figured out by now that you aren't going to get unbiased information from media (conservative or otherwise), then you are a useful idiot.
Heck, everybody's got a 'good reason' for their ignorance. Only those who make the effort to educate themselves can escape being useful idiots.
In short, just because you have a 'good excuse' for being a useful idiot doesn't make you any less a useful idiot.
Did you think I was talking about people who didn’t vote for him?
My examples were of that. It sounds like we were on the same track, just in different trains.
