Communism is a political system that influences an underlying economy.. Socialism is ONLY an economic system. You ALREADY live under socialism: government supported police/fire/military, government supported education, government support mail service, social security admin., welfare and others. In a perfectly ran socialistic system, free-capitalizm supplies exactly what society needs with no over/under production. America is a poorly ran socialist democracy. Class warfare is needed to get it running better. Having 1% hold the vast majority of wealth is screwing up capitalism here, creating communism in fact but not in name. The GOP vision is much closer to Marxism than anything POTUS Obama could ever dream up.
I do not hate Obama. I hate lying. I hate Marxism. I hate seeing America tank at the hands of apostates swearing allegiance to the Constitution and and getting around it with every vote they make and political position they take.
Plenty of people knew Obama would be the worst president in American history. Has nothing to do with the color of his skin, but the color of his politics - communist wealth redistribution government is god red.
BTW: I voted for Obama partly because he's black. Not because I wanted a black President for any reason, I felt it was good for the country as a whole, both black and white. This country is a melting pot - the white man can't be expected to be too concerned about issues for the minorities which as a group ARE the majority. It's a reality check thang.
I think most people who voted for Obama didn't do it just because he's black.
They did it because of all the hype about the empty promises he made.
People believed him.
I think PART of Obama's problem is he went to Washington thinking that he could work with the Republicans.
He believed that he could find some moderates to get things done with, that they would cooperate, for the sake of the country..
But, there ARE NO MODERATE REPUBLICANS anymore.
They don't give a damn about the country.
EVERYTHING revolves around power politics to them.
He bent over backwards to please them and got nothing for it but their hatred.
I think after a few years he began to wise up a little.
But, lots of folks felt that it was too little too late.
Will his second term be any different?
I dunno.
The do-nothing Republican congress is still there.
I don't know how much he CAN do, even if he really tried.
Which I don't think he will.
