Recently a misinformed friend complained of
the high cost of shipping the President to various
countries on his recent tour. The cost of shipping a
president for any reason has always been expensive
but for political/economic expediency it often is
cost effective.
There was never a complaint about the cost of shipping
Bush around in spite the glaring fact that the results were
mostly never cost effective. The cost of shipping an intelligent
president or an idiot is about the same. Why the flap? it
seems that whatever Obama does vultures await in the
shadows to pick his bones, correction, his "black bones".
Please realize that culturally we are racists in the
United States , hiding behind a very thin veils basking
in the dark behind prejudice and ignorance. We simply
prefer a white president and not a black president.
I would like to point out that Obama is a glass half
full of black and white, however it is a full glass. Since
slavery one is considered black in the U.S. if one drop of
blood exist and can be traced back to a relative who is black.
In most peoples minds he is black. Which suggest to them
ignorance, possible culturally deficiencies and a preference
for supporting black issues and the dreaded creep of
imagined socialism.
The Civil War that fought over slavery still rages. Perhaps
sometime latent, ingrained by years of indoctrination
by history and politics. My admission to this fault is self
incriminating since when strolling I unconsciously cross
the street when I see a black man approaching me. This
is not a one party fault since Democrats and Republicans
alike share my cultural faults.
Globally racism sadly continues to run free in most
countries. Often it is now based on religion as well as
political formats. The United States does not have
the monopoly on this epidemic that seems to increase
daily.
The pathetic fact is that most of the banks and
corporations are run by lily white folks. Universally
it was white people who got us into this mess. Could
a black or even a white man turn around 15 or 20
years of greed and legalized usury in one term.
Think about this!
We rapidly approach the Presidential election, and we
shall see what goes down. What will happen if there is
a substantial decrease in unemployment?
Prediction, the idiocy and faulty policies will march
right back into the white house even if the failing
economy steps out of the closet and shines. We
will return to the old format of the privileged
running the banks and economy. This will result
in a slow recovery and we will blame the
"black man"for the lag and jettisons him in a
blaze of ignorance, never mind if his attempts
fail or succeed, the political process is in motion,
Obama will likely serve only one term. It would
be difficult to halt the freight train of misguided
citizens with that amount of political fat aboard.
The public will probably deny any progress and
return to the antiquated political processes
that will spell out an undefined future for most
Americans , especially those who are not a part of
the "privileged white class".
The rest of the world now views us as arrogant,
over privileged and generally fat and greedy. If the
shoe fits wear it with stupid pride.!
