Obama, Clinton Want To Enforce 'Correct' Thinking In America

[yoe]

What happens when the public does not wish to live out the utopian dreams of its elite leaders?

[snip] How, then, do politically correct planners force the people to think and act properly when they push back?

Extra-legal executive orders can help a president bypass supposed troglodytes in Congress and among the public.

Obama granted blanket amnesties, proposed rules that would lead to the closure of many coal plants and arbitrarily chose which health or labor statutes should be enforced and at what times.

A filmmaker was even jailed on a trumped-up probation charge after making a video about Islam.....

[snip] As Obama put it: "We're going to have to change how our body politic thinks, which means we're going to have to change how the media reports on these issues, and how people's impressions of what it's like to struggle in this [economy looks like."

Given the First Amendment, how can the president "change" the media?........
