I think Obamas references to Lincoln (his travel to DS by his route, etc.) mean more than people realize. It’s not just “Lincoln freed the slaves, and now a black man is president”.

Consider this: Lincoln held together the union. That is, he would not allow states to secede.

So if and when Obama is faced with threats of secession (let’s face it, anything is possible nowadays) he will once again cite Lincoln as his guiding factor.

And the propaganda seeds will already be in place.

“Oath keepers” didn’t exist when Lincoln was president.

And, I hope, secessionists will be smarter this time and just use the “ignore them” strategy until THEY try to come and enforce their will on the state.

(No Ft Sumpter excuse)

At least China has nothing to worry about from Obama. Ogabe will submit to their demands, demean America, get no concessions in return, and grant them every wish they have. He will probably sell military technology to them to finance his 2012 re-election campaign. Obama wants the Chinese to run the World, and to trash America as fast as he can. His wish is to destroy America, which he thinks is the worst country to have ever existed.
