About 18 months ago there was a fascinating piece (memory fails where I read it) about the marketing of Obama by Axelrod. Basically- it all came down to selling and hyping the brand, Obama. It’s hard to think of a greater con job perpetrated on the country...but it was nonetheless brilliant and effective.

Obama, the clerverly produced infomerical...all glitz and shine. When you got the product home it did not perform as promised. He is a lemon and a leftist, Marxist lemon at that. Now ALL of us have to suffer for it. Vote him out of office!

You’re correct, but always remember the Mainstream National News Media helped push Obama and covered up his past. Without the help of the Media, Obama would still be in Chicago doing what Community Organizers do - uh - whatever they are suppose to do.

I agree. More over, several people I know were eager to buy the hype. They used their vote as an opportunity to pat themselves on the back, as if to say, "Look at me, I believe that the candidate best suited for the job of President is the one with the least amount of leadership or executive experience because I know he will serve as a role model for fatherless black young men".

I don't buy that brilliant etc anymore than I did about Clinton being a great politician

Without the MSM covering for both of them they are NOTHING
