I'm always curious when someone from the right-wing fringes states something like this. How is it that you support a President that is actively trying to quiet the press, actively trying to quiet the experts, is known to be the most dishonest president in our modern history, and who ACTIVELY tries to stop people from fact checking him because he openly admits that if he can't lie, his speech will be limited.
HOW can you say anyone is trying to "completely change the US form of Government" when this buffoon is actively doing just that, and bragging about it the whole time?
And FWIW, I agree with the second statement, I think most Americans (regardless of affiliation) agree with it. It's the best, but it's not perfect. There is nothing more Patriotic and American than wanting to improve our system that is already "best in the world", and there is nothing more American than being able to disagree with our leaders without recourse, yet our current POTUS is so meek and thin-skinned that he's trying to Trash the Constitution, and you think Obama and the Left are the ones trying to change our country?
The ignorance displayed in your posts are astounding.
So you did your best to one up me on ignorance !!! And succeeded too !!! Charming !!!
Listen to the Marxist Harvard professor Dr. Cornel West and tells us what he got wrong !!!!
The thread is about him and what he said !!! Did you know that ?
That quote is taken out of context, and you damn-well know it. He said:
He was talking about the greatness that is America, and the opportunity it provides to anyone who wants to build their business. His quote CLEARLY states that the thing they didn't build was the environment that is America. And it's such a simple concept. Nothing is done without help, inspiration, or influence from others. There is no iPhone without the Microchip. There is no modern rock as we know it without the Beatles, and so on. It doesn't take ANYTHING away from the creators, it just pays respect to the idea that it is part of something bigger.
Obama was not saying the person did not build their business. He's saying they built it, but that they did so, IN PART, because they were fortunate to be in the best country in the history of earth, with the greatest opportunity, and the greatest resources to build upon.
Why would you, or the entire right want to lie about this. It's as if you don't believe Obama when he constantly said America is great. It's almost as if you believed Lying Donnie when he constantly told us what a disaster the USA is, and how ONLY HE could make it great. Surely you don't beleive the US is a disaster, like Lying Donnie told us, do you?
What do you think a transfer of wealth is that Obama championed ?
Many socialists hate Obama for his support of free trade and bailing out the banks. Anyone except for the most deluded conservatives should realize that Obama led a pretty centrist presidency.
I happen to like Obama and most of his policies, but many people of the left think he didn't push back hard enough against Wall Street and the military.
No surprise, Obama is sitting in his mansion, kids going to Ivy Leagues and dating white men from rich families, while his former constituents are still in a war zone in Southside Chicago
It was just a matter of time before blacks turned against their “self elected” race hustlers and handlers.
Harvard professor Dr. Cornel West - traces US unrest to Obama failures: 'Black faces in high places' couldn't deliver
Everyone knows by now what a failure Obama was !!! Nothing left of his legacy but overwhelming corruption of his admin. !!!
This Harvard Professor is not all wrong but is always for something that has proven to be a failure where its been tried !!!
Any doubts that the left wants to completely change the US form of government ?
Any truth we have a bad system but its better than all the rest in the world ?
Kinda puts a damper on whitey must stand aside, its our turn now !!!
"The Black Lives Matter movement emerged under a black president, black attorney general, and black homeland security and they couldn't deliver," West said about the Obama administration during a CNN interview Friday night.
Are you agreeing or disagreeing with Cornel West? Yes, he said BLM started during Obama's administration. He also said it was a failure of capitalism and the American system:
West noted that "black faces in high places" were not able to create needed change because they succumbed to the "capitalist economy" and "militarized nation-state."
So you agree with him that Obama was a failure and we need a socialist revolution??

The bold !!! The facts !!!
The reasons can be debated but the facts are the facts !!!
If this highly educated, deep thinking, Marxist can get it why can't the rest of the leftist ? Puzzling !!!
Did they not pay attention in class ?
