The wisdom of Barack Obama is finally coming into focus. Conservatives had a field day pointing out ignorant and inaccurate things Mr. Obama has a habit of saying: “57 states,” Austrians speaking “Austrian,” Hawaii being “in Asia.” Barry Soetero, ne’ Obama, has demonstrated rather loose connections to hard facts, but those are not where his ‘wisdom’ lives.
Perhaps his first wise move was marrying Michelle Robinson, by far the smarter of that couple. It is Prudent to assume that Michelle’s advisements to her husband overrode and were superior to many of his own ideas, including with whom to surround himself. We suspect that this included having Joe Biden serve as his Vice-President. Biden would never upstage her husband and would serve to make him seem normal to suspicious Whites. Barry’s wife was/is far more popular than he was… or is.
Barack’s life is mainly a closed book, the details of which are purposely obscured; Michelle’s is far better understood in comparison. Mr. Obama is unable to even prove his birthplace after spending literal millions to stop constitutional demands for that proof. Prudence suspects that there will eventually emerge proof of non-U. S. birth for this enigmatic man, the legal implications of which are fascinating. Back to the wisdom part.
Obama’s wisdom is political, and little else. He’s not an historian or an economist, certainly no military expert and he can’t throw a baseball, but he understands propaganda and manipulation, both short and long term. Prudently, he has destroyed the Clintons as part of his oft-stated intention to “fundamentally transform” the United States. First, he defeated Hillary head-to-head, but made her Secretary of State where she could bear the brunt of the wild and wishful foreign policies he was planning.
In that role, Obama allowed stories to exfiltrate that it was Mrs. Clinton who pushed for the destruction of Libya, for example, which hardened feelings against her in some quarters, essentially ruining any residual veracity she may have had. He allowed her – possibly helped her – to profit from “pay-to-play” schemes involving the Clinton Foundation, essentially buying her loyalty. Additionally, he permitted by acquiescence, her use of an illegal eMail system, forcing her into a legal corner almost guaranteed to ruin her candidacy for president. Trump, in reaction to the dangers she finally appeared to represent to ‘normal’ Americans, was the electoral result. But liberal-socialists need not have worried, the groundwork had been well-laid in the waning months of Obama’s administration to hog-tie the new president, and take over the opposition, once the Democratic Party.
To make certain that the Clintons would be destroyed, Obama’s friends, Jim Comey, Peter Strzok, Eric Holder and Loretta Lynch… and others, added as thick a patine of sleazy dealings and advantageous treatment for Mrs. Clinton as could be applied, assuring her electoral failure. That was job one.
Job two is destroying compromise between the two parties while guiding Democrats so far leftward that there is no suitable descriptive name for them any longer. In a political blink of an eye, Democrats have swarmed to challenge Trump with what appear to be outrageous propositions (in the eyes of conservatives and other ‘normal’ citizens) not least of which is the invasion across the southern border.
Trump, never more than imperfect, somewhat glaringly so in certain arenas, was elected as much a ‘not-Clinton’ as a recognized expert in foreign affairs, economics, military power or diplomacy. He has surprised many by persevering through a mugging of a thousand cuts, and shows some decent instincts, but has yet to comfort the skeptical. Despite good approval polling, Trump is made more vulnerable by the nature of the multiple representatives of socialist idiocy arrayed against him.
The Democrat candidate he will face is not yet in the race, is our Prudent opinion.
One recalls the burst of excitement during the few days that it seemed possible that Oprah Winfrey might get into the presidential race. Finally, supporters thought, a “non politician” we can get behind. They already loved her and Prudence suspects that there were virtually no criticisms of her that would have stuck. She isn’t going to run for president.
Back to Barack Hussein Obama’s political long march to transform America. He and his backers have prepared the ground and ‘fertilized’ it well. All he needs, now, is to plant the right flower. And he will. It is impossible for him and for his fellow travelers to recede into the background. Their struggle to overturn freedom is a daily one. The master they serve never sleeps and never relents. Trump is going to face Michelle Obama, who will announce with Oprah at her side and a fawning press at her feet.
Hillary Clinton was a minor quiz; this Constitutional Republic is about to be sorely tested.
