Not that Obama is not smart, but I do think Valarie Jarrett is the brains of this outfit.
Sometimes I look at what she has accomplished in just 7 years and I cannot help but admire her. She has steered this Constitutional Republic into something bordering on a Constitutional Monarchy. Without a single change to the Constitution, just by force of will, threats and even a little physical coercion.
And a conspiring, colluding, manipulative national press corpse.
With the shelter of her 24x7x24 years in the cocoon of her protective national press, Hillary would have been laughed out of the 1992 race.
