" ........ Barack Obama is nothing more than an old school African Colonial who is on his way to turning this country into one of the developing nations that you learn about on the National Geographic Channel. Many conservative (East, West, South, North) African-Americans like myself -- those of us who know our history -- have seen this movie before."

"One thing that the British forgot to mention to their Nigerian constituents was that one day, the resources that were being used to engineer "progress" (which the British had confiscated from the Africans to begin with!) would eventually run out. After WWII, Western Europe could no longer afford to hold on to their African colonies. So all of the counterfeit countries that the Europeans created were then left high-and-dry to fend for themselves. This was the main reason behind the African independence movements of the1950 and 60's. What will a post-Obama America look like?"

” ..... Obama has been living on American soil for most of his adult life. Therefore, he has been able to masquerade as one who understands and believes in American democratic ideals. But he does not. Barack Obama is intrinsically undemocratic and as his presidency plays out, this will become more obvious.”

"The African colonial politician (ACP) feigns repulsion towards the hegemonic paradigms of Western civilization. But at the same time, he is completely enamored of the trappings of its aristocracy or elite culture. The ACP blames and caricatures whitey to no end for all that has gone wrong in the world. He convinces the masses that various forms of African socialism are the best way for redressing the problems that European colonialism motivated in Africa. However, as opposed to really being a hard-core African Leftist who actually believes in something, the ACP uses socialist themes as a way to disguise his true ambitions: a complete power grab whereby the "will of the people" becomes completely irrelevant."

"Barack Obama is all of the above. The only difference is that he is here playing (colonial) African politics as usual."

(my bold)

I get the point about “old school African Colonial.” But I grew up in San Francisco during the height of the Black Panther movement. While they have similarities, the BP movement was only related in spirit. The BF movement was rooted in Communism (until they gain control, of course).

I think that Obama is a pure Crony Communist where HE decides who will will and who will lose. FDR was the same way, as was Clinton.

These Elites (almost always from Harvard, Yale, Berkeley, etc) have this Utopian vision that leads to a ruling class and the masses. Of course, the biggest redistribution is to the ruling class.

Obama, Hillary, Bill. They are all the same. Multi-millionaire progressive elitists.

Our constitution forbids such a man from becoming president.

Why aren't we enforcing it?

What will a post-Obama America look like?

That may not be the question, perhaps, if there is a post-Obama American, what will it look like? might be closer to the real question.

The above just fits better when looking at the last and most significant part of the cogent article. “Also, understand this: the African colonial who is given too much political power can only become one thing: a despot”.

He’s definitely a Marxist. But I think the author is right: he’s not an American Marxist, but a Third World one, who is trying to impose exactly that type of African Marxist thug dictator government on us.

Will Obama become America's Idi Amin?

I totally agree.

For years I have been referring to people like them as ....

"Castle Communists".

I wish the phrase would catch on. People like them are real happy with communism as long as they "get theirs".

No doubt whatsoever.

To convince any doubters just refer to the images of our DL bowing to those leaders he respects; and to the actions he has taken against democratic leaders that he does not respect.

“Western thinking has become conservative:
the world situation should stay as it is at any cost;
there should be no changes. ....
The communist regime in the East could stand and grow due to the enthusiastic support
from an enormous number of Western intellectuals who felt a kinship and refused to see
communism's crimes. And when they no longer could do so, they tried to justify them. In
our Eastern countries, communism has suffered a complete ideological defeat; it is zero
and less than zero. But Western intellectuals still look at it with interest and with
empathy, and this is precisely what makes it so immensely difficult for the West to
withstand the East.”

[Aleksandr Isayevich Solzhenitsyn at the Commencement, 8 June 1978, Harvard University]

I disagree with the point.

his cultural identity........ The key to understanding him lies with his identification with his father,

I think the key is understanding who he married. Michelle is a manifestation of how the wants others to think of him.

No doubt whatsoever.

Which gives pause to ponder, what in the hell are the crowds of adoring obamabots thinking? If we can call it thinking.
