Obama, the Great
American Thinker ^

History is replete with great men like Barack Obama -- transformational leaders of wide renown, seeking to shape history in their own image, never realizing it is not great men who make history; it is history which makes great men.
Our president has never been more than an epigone of a great man. And the cold glare of history will see Barack Obama for the man he truly is -- and it will not matter what the meaning of "is" is.
"The world will little note, nor long remember" Barack Obama, because contrary to his own opinion, he is the nation's worst president. He is an arrogant, hyper-partisan, race-baiting, committed socialist -- a man whose deliberate attempts to transform the nation into a banana republic, with pictures of himself on the side of every building, have been thwarted only by his need to win one more election.
I can see Jimmy Carter smiling already, having handily won the battle to be penultimate -- if only by default.

epigone |ˈepiˌgōn| noun ( pl. epigones |ˈepiˌgōnz| or epigoni |iˈpigəˌnī|) a less distinguished follower or imitator of someone, esp. an artist or philosopher : the epigone's habit of exaggerating his master's voice. I had to look up this word, so I figured others might have the same problem.

Obama may well be infamously remembered as the architect of America’s destruction.

“Obama may well be infamously remembered as the architect of Americas destruction.”
The right man at the right time. This is the perfect storm. An unconcerned, uninterested electorate devoid of the ability to think critically. A subversive, traitorous media on his side. An opposition more interested in personal wealth and position than in what’s good for the nation. And an individual to do what it takes to bring the great Satan to it’s knees.
Obama will be re-elected. America is finished.

Obama will be remembered as either the pinnacle at the end of our great experiment or remembered as the end of Americas lost decade and eventual revival. It is up to us.

Dumb, probably. His talent is in his narcissistic drive and charisma that is solely dedicated to Islam and the destruction of this country. Lies, to him, are means to the Islamic end. On the way to total Islamic control, his socialist edicts will pit every man, woman and child in this country against one another - it is the means of Islam winning the final prize.
