The next president has spoken - hopefully

Friday, July 25. 2008

I´ve viewed the Berlin speech of Barrak Obama yesterday evening on CNN (the german networks had terrible translators). I really think, i saw the next president of the United States. From my perspective it was a good speech. Refreshingly different than the other politicans i saw before (the US ones and the german ones as well). I really hope, your get it right this time, dear US voters ... i really had some doubts about the mental status of the US people at the last election.

BTW: I don´t think that this age is a problem. Long and vast Experience is often not much more than an excuse for stubborn narrow-mindness. You have advisors for this task, knowing much more about an issue than you will know ... you just take care, that your advisors haven´t an own policy (but Bush (the younger one) got even relected with such advisors).

Too bad Barak Obama is owned by the Israel lobby, AIPAC. Too bad he is full of platitudes. Too bad he is talking about spending more money on social programs and bailouts in a time where the dollar is weakening due to inflation and derivatives (weapons of financial mass destruction) are destroying banks and funds all over.

Too bad the only guy with a sensible approach to fixing all of this was Ron Paul, he predicted all of this, even telling the Fed of this eventuality in 1983, yes, 1983. ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6epCVUppjJM )

Yes we want to listen to the feel good charismatic platitudes of Obama? I suppose we have to, because the other candidate is a rubber chicken headed traitor keating 5 retard.

We have a retard and an idiot to pick from, its the worst election in American history at this point.

"i really had some doubts about the mental status of the US people at the last election. "

You realize the US media is totally complicit with promulgating government propaganda? You realize that the Democrats and Republicans are a singular entity, a occupying force that works for the military industrial complex, mega-corporations and both are working hard to destroy US sovereignty, destroy our founding ideals and principles, use banking to control the world when possible, and kowtow to the Israel lobby at all times?

The US has been hijacked. And the propaganda machine made the US citizen, who has been robbed, raped, and jobs taken away and imprisoned without habeus corpus, our friends in Europe attack the people when we have rigged elections?

Its not fair. The Sequoia end Deibold voting machines simple change election results. (Princeton University did a documentary on this : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5WMG34cv0zM ) Everyone hates Bush's presidency, but hates the congress here worse, 9% approval. We elected Pelosi and the demoncats to stop Bush, but they are ONE PARTY behind closed doors.

WE HAVE BEEN HIJACKED! And the rest of the world blames the US people as we suffer under this regime, its not fair.

So forgive me if I take umbrage at the insinuation the US public is mentally impaired. We have been hijacked by a propaganda machine that is using media and government to lull the people to sleep?

Sound familiar?

Hi,

I doubt that there are any fundamental changes in the relationships between the US of Amerika and Europe/Germany if Mr. Obama becomes the candidate of the democratic party and if he becomes the next president one day. A lot of people seem to be enthusiastic about him. But every new face can do this job at the moment I guess.
