Setting things up for the Obama crew to send in whoever they pick.
Well, kinda.
There's a titanic battle going on in the shadows. Team Obama vs. Team Clinton, other players unannounced or undeclared.
Obama can indict Hillary and send her to prison. She can avoid this by discovering the joy of changing Charlotte's diapers and retiring while Mr. and Mrs. Mezvinsky are out cheating less well connected hedge fund people and buying up Manhattan.
But wait! Hillary can't retire, because she and Bill have collected hundreds of millions of dollars in exchange for promissory notes to foreign thugs and enemies, and if she retires, they will be after both of the Arkansas grifters.
So, to stop her indictment or her assassination by angry Kazakhs (or whoever), she has to take a shot at Obama. Presumably, both Clintons have the birth certificate and all other relevant information.
But they can't shoot at Obama and miss, because then it's the hoosegow for certain.
I think the powers that created "Obama" are planning a Reichstag Fire, with Obama himself in the role of the Reichstag. Once Hillary is nominated (if she ever is), Obama is dispensible AND his violent removal, timed right, the only thing that could guarantee her election.
It's very tough watching the shadow play, not knowing who strikes first, or how much of a mess they will create.
