America’s Greatest Problems Caused Obama

A friend sent me the following explanation of America’s great decline that notes the error of simply blaming President Obama for all of our many current problems

My attempts to verify the authenticity of following quote have suggested that the author is unknown.

Never-the-less, I judge that the main thesis of this paragraph contains some importnat truths.

“The danger to America is not Barack Obama, but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America . Blaming the prince of fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools, such as those who made him their President.”

The main thrust of this message is that America’s electorate has is no longer capable of effectively governing itself and that this fatal cultural evolution may not be remediable.I pray this is not true, but fear that it is.

I have been researching the decline in the quality of America’s population’s behavior since the 1980’s. Almost every social indicator that I can find supports the main thesis of the preceding paragraph.

The following are several of my personal thoughts in response to the preceding quote.

1. I believe the problem is much more endemic to America than Obama. However, Obama is far from a fool as suggested by the anonymous author. He is a very intelligent, devious and highly skilled revolutionary who is the political point-man, representing indigenous and global forces, frantically pulling the levers of destruction of our Constitutional Republic.

2. It is the great number of American and foreign intelligentsia who continue to support Obama who are the “fools” because they advocate America’s devolvement into variations of the ideologies of socialism and communism, now disguised as “progressivism”.  They are fools because they continue to try the same failed solutions to human problems  over and over again, expecting different and  successful outcomes.

3. The throngs of average Americans who voted to keep Obama in the Presidency after his disastrous first term do in fact, as the author asserts, represent a destructive force that may not be correctable before it is too late to save the Republic. These are the dullards, the irresponsible, the unprincipled, the stoners, the hedonists, the slackers on-the-dole, and the empty-headed “revolutionaries”. Many of these individuals are the refuse of  our broken families, debased culture  and our governmentally corrupted public school systems;  bereft of  spiritual precepts, American history and our Founding Father’s values and ethics.

4. I cannot agree that it will be easy to repair the damage that Obama has skillfully inflicted upon America. Undoing Obama-care, coping with millions of illegal aliens, reversing the growth of our welfare state, restoring local control of our schools, restoring religious values and ethics, regaining respect (fear when necessary) and leadership in the world, and more, will be a very daunting task.  Sadly as the author states, all of this will be easier than: “to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate….”.

5. And, yes, I too fear we cannot save the Republic with the likes of an electorate that awarded Obama a second term as President. Our first indication of whether such a permanent calamity is in the offing will come in November of 2014, when we see if there is a conservative revolution in the Congressional elections. The final verdict will be rendered in the 2016 Presidential Election.

Without a strong conservative revolution at the polls, after 8 years of domestic and international horrors under the leadership socialist Obama, his progressive minions, and other phony conservatives (RINOs) our Republic will likely be lost.

It is past time for America’s “silent majority” to scream “bloody murder” at the polls.
