...you should strongly consider posting it as an original post. Incredible.

I agree that Obama could have done all of that. However, I do believe that he is
dealing with powerful, global forces who would do ANYTHING to maintain their
power grip and to continue their crimes--which have been happening for decades.

I agree with you. Obama had choices. He did have an army with us. I was one
of his precinct captains and I would have marched to Washington or whatever--if he
had led the charge to end this Fascist takeover of our government.

I think the people doing this to our country and to our world are all interconnected, powerful
and I believe that they wouldn't hesitate to kill or destroy anyone who got in their way.

They could trump up a fake scandal, frame someone for horrible crimes or kill people or
their loved ones.

For Obama to play along--I'm assuming that these animals must be more disgusting and
evil than we can ever imagine.

I know what you're saying. I've spent months pointing out Obama's choices and criticizing
his horrendous moves. What has happened to our country is disgusting, and these bullies have
made tremendous progress toward their Fascist goals while Obama has been at the helm.

You're right--Obama could have been the one to save our Republic. Again, please consider posting
your response as it's own post. It's worth reading and others, I'm sure, would like to read and comment.
