The Obama Agenda and the New Global Elite
American Thinker ^ | September 22, 2010 | L.E. Ikenga

Posted on 09/24/2010 7:59:44 PM PDT by george76

By wearing a familiar mask of convention, Barack Obama will continue to dupe the majority of Americans into believing that he is -- at worst -- a run-of-the-mill, far-left liberal, even though he is not.

Picking up on the recent Forbes magazine article written by Dinesh D'Souza, Newt Gingrich concluded that Mr. Obama's ideology is probably far beyond the realm of mainstream American thinking. In an interview done for NRO, Mr. Gingrich was quoted as asking, "What if [Obama] is so outside our comprehension that only if you understand Kenyan, anti-colonial behavior can you begin to piece together [his actions]?"

I once called him the "African Colonial" in that he has essentially turned into the thing that he rails against.

However, for many, the notion that Barack Obama could possibly be familiar with, much less ascribe to, the various propositions of (African) post-colonial theory will continue to be dismissed as preposterous. Any attempt to bring to light, for mainstream Americans, its obscure paradigms as they relate to Mr. Obama's way of thinking will continue to be rejected, in large part, because of these four reasons:

1. Americans tend to use racial stereotypes in order to define anyone who is different in any way. Cultural, religious, and ethnic differences continue to be enshrined in insipid racial terms.

Many Americans supported Barack Obama in order to make history by voting for the nation's first "black American" president. These people's intellect was not subtle enough, nor were their experiences vast enough, to enable them to discern between Mr. Obama's cultural frame of reference and the color of his skin. They will continue to think in terms of decades-old tropes that aid in keeping our dialogues on race and ethnicity in a historical straitjacket.

Post-colonial theory is best viewed as ...two main varieties.

You haven’t read Dinesh D’Souza’s article, have you? Look it up and read it because it perfectly describes why Obastard does what he does.

A well-supported academic tome that validates what we knew in our spirit when we first saw it.

Not America. Reject it now, before we are consumed.

How Obama Thinks.

Colonialism today is a dead issue. No one cares about it except the man in the White House. He is the last anticolonial.

our President is trapped in his father’s time machine. Incredibly, the U.S. is being ruled according to the dreams of a Luo tribesman of the 1950s. This philandering, inebriated African socialist, who raged against the world... America today is governed by a ghost.

Great article!
Isn’t it funny how the leftist elitists, who pride themselves on ‘deep thoughts’ can never manage to muster even one ‘deep thought’ when it comes to Obama...LOL!

The ‘deepest’ they ever go with Obama, is to call anyone that disagrees with ‘a fundamental transformation of America’, a ‘racist’.

I’d love to see an honest Jungian academic perspective on Obama soon. It is sorely needed. Here is mine:

Obama (and his supporters) have cast him into so many archetypal roles..he is bound to self destruct on some puer mountain, as we all look on in horror.

Jung would have a field day studying our collective unconscious, an unconsciousness that handed a unaccomplished community organizer, a person that had a deep animousity to our country and it’s founders, with the car keys to her very survival.

WHAT HAVE WE DONE?!!

Thanks George. This article reminds me of Dennis Bloodworth's book An Eye for the Dragon and its descriptions of the post colonial attractions of self governance with a basis in Western political structures and the animosities towards them in SE Asia. It was a losing battle which is why that part of the world spent the last fifty years in a struggle for each former colony's national identity....and still does.

In science Nature may abhor a vacuum, but gravity does not care. ... neither does it in political science anything goes, on and on with a vengeance.

Just as long as folks can't read, understand and come to conclusions in their individual best interests, the cycle will continue. They'll be serfs, slaves and captives to whatever ideology fills the vacuum. They'll gravitate to the lowest level, ironically, one they hoped to escape.

How's that 'Change' workin' out for ya?

Lest anyone forget, he cut his socialist teeth while at Columbia University. He “sought out” people and professors who were leftward leaning. He went to Harvard to obtain his bonafides to continue in the elite left society, not really to practice law. As he moved on to Chicago, he befriended Bill Ayers and the Jarrett family who took him in as one of their own. All grooming him for their eventual take-over of the USA. They are all members of the New Democrat Socialist Party. They are trying to take down the USA. Valerie Jarrett has no experience other than to make sure Obama turns this country into a Communist one and she and her cronies will become the Oligarchs. Look into her holdings in Chicago public housing - money went to her, housing delapidated to the point of being torn down. It is all about the money with these folks.

He didn't put the bust of Winston Churchill in the basement—he sent it back to Britain!

He is truly living "the dreams of his father" to put Communism in charge—but not just in Kenya.

Thanks for the link. Makes my skin crawl, but it’s dead on. I’ve seen many presidents come and go, but this one is bringing us to our knees like no other in history. God help us.

Our good buddies, the Saudi’s, forked over $350 million to Harvard for a new building (probably for ‘Arab studies’), just when Obama was admitted to Harvard and was made editor of the Law Review, where he distinguished himself by doing nothing. After he became president, the Saudi’s boasted they bought and paid for the White House and control the US. They’re right. Zero is their creation. Mentored by communists and bankrolled by the Saudi’s. He’s a modern day Frankenstein.

Good points all. Hopefully the majority in this country are waking up. Bottom line..something is very very wrong with this whole picture.

” You haven’t read Dinesh D’Souza’s article, have you? Look it up and read it because it perfectly describes why Obastard does what he does. “

Dinesh uncovered Obama for exactly what he is, and clarified all of his motives. One of the finest articles written in many years!

He was also a regular drunk driver who got into numerous accidents, killing a man in one and causing his own legs to be amputated due to injury in another. In 1982 he got drunk at a bar in Nairobi and drove into a tree, killing himself.

He lost his legs, then got drunk at a bar, got behind the wheel with no legs and drove into a tree killing himself? I never knew that about his "dad"

And remember that Hitlery is just much as if not even more evil than he is and far, far, far more intelligent.
