(11,464 posts)Uniting the Core of the democratic party-
while the naysayers are blind to it, the single early event that defines is how
President Obama reached out to Hillary Clinton and 95% of the democratic party came together, and is sticking together
The best thing President Obama is doing (again, the naysayers attempt, but fail to drown this most important point out is-
He is doing things, not for ego(he has no ego), but for the future, he is dotting the I's, and Crossing the T's, and looking 21 steps ahead
or more, to a future where the faux 50-50 is going to be shattered.
He also has united just about every single demographic minority group and with major big numbers
which means the republicantealibertarianconservative have NO voters to win a general election
ASSUMING
that those voters come to the polls and the correct candidate is nominated
(which of course means, if the naysayers end up tossing aside Obama, Cory Booker, Deval Patrick, Michelle Obama, Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton,
there would be no reason to come to the polls for most and that would lead to
President Jeb Bush or President Chris Christie.
While Hillary has all of the blue states, and will get many red states,
unfortunately some radical or unknown candidate could not even assure having NJ or PA on its tallies.
Hillary easily wins NJ
however, Christie could easily win NJ if Hillary is not the nominee
Witness the legendary uber-liberal Michael Dukakis, and how few electoral votes he won.
And 95% of the republican extremist types (ala Ron Paul fans) ain't in a million years gonna vote for any democratic candidate.
They would vote for the ticket of Jeb Bush/ Rand Paul or Chris Christie/Rand Paul.
So that is the greatness of Obama.
He has rope-a-doped the competititon 1000 times over and will continue to do so.
He already IMHO is the #4 president of all time
