No one can deny that Barack Obama is a highly skilled politician, at least by the measure of election outcomes.
Just how highly skilled do you have to be to benefit from:
the press giving you a pass
the republican party self-destructing
the scandals that are right there in front of everyone's noses going unaddressed
the media playing house with him, and not reporting anything negative
nobody addressing election fraud or actually taking it seriously
nobody taking his history seriously
nobody listening (if it's anti-Obama, it has to be propaganda, dismiss it)
anything they can't dismiss, is attributed to racism
the opposition candidate actually endorses you...
I'm convinced we could go on for hours...
A supremely apt comparison.
His method is to pass draconian laws, rules and regulations then curry favor by exempting select elements. Simply put Extortion.
You nailed it!
