2008 Barack Obama came off to many as an honest to goodness Washington outsider who intended to work to better the lives of everyday Americans regardless of skin color, sex, social status, or belief system. He promised his presidency would improve our standing in the international community. He promised to extract our troops from foreign wars and return vital resources to our honored veterans.
The media convinced millions of Americans that if they elected Barack Obama, we would forever explode the reigning notion that the United States is an overwhelmingly racist country- effectively removing hundreds of years of racial fear and mistrust.
Alas, everything Americans hoped for in the Obama administration proved to be false. His policies placed America’s interests after the interests of other nations. Unemployment deepened under Obama, and his cheap Obama phones did not do much to fix that. We were sold an even deeper and more poisonous narrative of race hatred, including a wholly false depiction of all police as racist murderers.
Now, after a presidency marred by 2,929 days of ceaseless war and bombings- Barack Obama is on the campaign trail for the midterm elections- pushing the same anti-American agenda he has always pushed.
But he has proven the depth of his hatred for America with a sickening list of endorsements. What’s most interesting is which Democrats he left off his list (and which ones he added in).
