Unwittingly, the President makes a new Party which changes politics for generations. That Party, the Tea Party, undoes all of the social programs of the last 75 years and causes the next great depression.
The biggest problem with Barack Obama is greater than the sellouts of his first and last term as President of the US.
The Tea Party was caused by Barack Obama. The fallout will last decades.
The hatred the American right wing has for Blacks, and non whites in general, has been festering for years. The great Freedom marches and riots are long over but the hatred remains. That hatred isn't merely confined to the South. I have seen it in the North, Midwest, the Far West, and the East and it's been there forever.
When Barack Obama became the Democratic Presidential Nominee the Tea Party became a strong force, as a direct result. That force took the US House and almost took the Senate as well in the next election.
From the day the President took office they decided to stop everything he asked for. Every piece of legislation was watered down and subsequently killed except for a few pieces which were so watered down they could best be labeled, sensless legislation.
The stream of venom coming from talk radio hosts is unending. So is the stream of venom from the right wing.
The hatred of black people will bring the Tea Party an overwhelming majority of both Houses and a right wing President as well.
The long term result will be the demise of Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and all sorts of funding assistance for the poor, students, and more.
The Presidency will go to the Republicans for the next 8 years and, most likely, the next 16 years. If the run the Republicans had with Reagan and both Bush's wasn't enough we may see at least that kind of run again ... unless the depression they create demands an FDR type change.
There are many Liberal, Progressive Democrats who will never again vote for a black President because of the short and long term results the first black President brought us. Equally bad, he caved in to every demand the far right wing demanded while he was President.
Republican control of the US Government began the second Obama was elected President, and the Tea Party, a non start right wing group of fools and thugs, has total control of our Country.
