The 2004 version of Barack Obama, who captured the nation with a dazzling speech about unity and went on to win the presidency on a message of hope, died on Monday. He was 8 years old.
The cause of death appeared to be a bitter realization that he needed to win reelection in an increasingly partisan political environment, a cancer that he had been battling for months if not years.
Obama's illness got the best of him late Monday, as he announced that his campaign for four more years in the White House would be based not on optimism, but rather the shady corporate record of his opponent, Mitt Romney, who ran a private-equity firm that few Americans knew about before this year.
Obama's announcement was a stark contrast to the speech that catapulted him into his party's sights eight years ago, when he electrified Democrats at their quadrennial convention.
"There is not a liberal America and a conservative America," Obama declared to cheers at the 2004 Democratic National Convention. "There is the United States of America.
"We are one people," Obama roared, perhaps envisioning his political future as the crowd rose to its feet. "All of us pledging allegiance to the stars and stripes, all of us defending the United States of America."
And strangely enough, it was in that very speech that Obama predicted his own demise. Just before his climactic applause line, the future president issued a stark warning.
"Even as we speak," he said, "there are those who are preparing to divide us -- the spin masters, the negative ad peddlers, who embrace the politics of anything goes."

It’s the perfect line for ABC news. They are telling us that Obama is a victim of the evil disagreement of people who have divided the nation.
The bottom line is that Obama and his supporters want a Utopian global socialistic government. Romney and his Rinos want a fascist government where the elite rule over us through corporations and we rule over the world. Forty percent want an independent constitutional Republic.
One cancels out the other. You can’t be both socialist and free. You can’t be both fascist and free. You can’t be under the rule of global rule and be free. You can’t be enslaved under elitist rule and be free. There is little compromise in this fundamental disagreement that divides America.
Oh, he wants to bring people together. He wnats to unite Blacks into an army with a mission to "put Whites in their proper place" and then he wants them to come together with Whites on the battlefields of Malls, Streets, Theaters, and anywhere else Whites might be found.
Can't get much more "together" than being in mortal combat.
obama is the sock puppet for the cpusa.
Look at their goals and obama’s actions.
Right down the line same same.
And you bet he is arrogant and cocky.
Ever notice that some of the most cocky people have the least to be cocky about? They have no accomplishments but yet act as if they are something big like the one we have all been waiting for.
ABC did make a serious mistake here.
They forgot to blame George Bush.
guess they are slipping.
lol Got to love the line where they blame conservatives for “Failing” to supporter the leftist agenda. LoL the arrogance.
