Poll question: When will Obama endorse the Wall Street Protesters?

[shraby]

1. If he endorses, that will change the dynamics..this is a

people's movement from the bottom up, his endorsement would make it a top down all of a sudden.

[ChandlerJr]

2. Maybe after it's too late.

27. A Hopi Elder speaks:

"You have been telling the people that this is the Eleventh Hour, now you must go back and tell the people that this is THE HOUR.

And there are things to be considered...

Where are you living?

What are you doing?

What are your relationships?

Are you in right relation?

Where is your water?

Know your garden.

It is time to speak your Truth.

Create your community.

Be good to each other.

And do not look outside yourself for the leader.

Then he clasped his hands together, smiled, and said, "This could be a good time! There is a river flowing now very fast. It is so great and swift that there are those who will be afraid. They will try to hold on to the shore. They will feel they are being torn apart and will suffer greatly. Know the river has its destination. The elders say we must let go of the shore, push off into the middle of the river, keep our eyes open, and our heads above the water. And I say, see who is in there with you and celebrate.

At this time in history, we are to take nothing personally. Least of all, ourselves. For the moment that we do, our spiritual growth and journey comes to a halt.

The time of the lone wolf is over. Gather yourselves! Banish the word struggle from your attitude and your vocabulary. All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration.

We are the ones we've been waiting for.

8. LOLOL

I imagine around the same time he holds the previous misadministration accountable

[pnorman]

9. And if it costs him the 2012 election?

Little matter! The important thing is that he stands tall for core values! Only then can we truly rally around him! Otherwise he'd be only the better of two evils! We've had our fill of that, thank you!

10. He preemptively endorsed participatory democracy while campaigning and since inauguration day.

Will he specifically speak to this, directly and explicitly?

No, a president wouldn't do that.

He might, however, have something to say about it, maybe indirectly or maybe in response to a question at a presser.

We shall see.

12. I would have voted for 'lol'

13. Same here.

16. Stop scaring him,his pissing his pants already.

Leave manny alone!

25. You may well be wrongly on the secret list, yourself.

There is no way you know or to correct the error.

The odds are much higher that some innocent middle eastern person is targeted. We will never know and we will never know why we even made the error.

Closed loops with no oversight are always the wise way to protect the innocent.

Rest well world, in this area alone we are incapable of error, misuse of power no matter who is elected in the future, and of course there is no way possible that there would be misuse or abuse EVER. Definition and/or mission creep is utterly impossible.

15. Wall Street doesn't need to protest for an endorsement by Obama. They say jump and Obama does. -nt

[bermudat]

17. Never

Obama not getting involved in Wisconsin or Ohio made the movement stronger. If he
had been involved, he would have capitulated. When Kasich said he wanted to talk after he
realized his clock was going to get cleaned in November=the Ohio movement said take his bill off the table and they'll talk. Obama always caves from a position of power.

:rofl:

23. While righteous people protested, Obama was cavorting with he enemy

He'll ignore it. He won't say anything about it. When asked about it in a press conference, he say something vague and inoffensive, like "This is America, and our citizens have the right to protest." But a White House flunky will the protesters "retards" or something like that.

24. Unlikely. He knows who he works for. You don't bite the hand that feeds you. nt

26. As a wholly-owned subsidiary of Goldman Sachs,

I'd say this Administration is pretty unlikely to endorse this movement. The banksters and their enablers are not going to cede an inch of territory until their hand is absolutely forced.

[Whisp]

28. has there been any President in the past that did so?

and if not, why is it Obama has to?
