There are a great many indications that Obama has been employing the Hitler "play book." (And, if you understand Leftist tactics, it makes a lot of sense, why they would employ that formula in America, rather than the Bolshevik. The Nazi revolution, after all, was also directed at a largely "middle class" population--as opposed to the largely peasant population in 1917 Russia.)
Agreed. It is simply a reincarnation of the effort to establish a socialist Aristocracy with a large peasant class, and very few middle class "troublemakers" for the powers that be.
