    WTF??

    http://www.theblaze.com/stories/…

    In a 1995 interview, Obama said:
    "I THINK THE BEST LEGACY OF THEIRS, MY INHERITANCE, IS THE NOTION THAT WE COLLECTIVELY DECIDE ON OUR FATE...
    things like technological change, things like mass media, things like the market, are all subject to our control, that we can make decisions for better or worse and continue to move forward and progress.”

    So what in the hell is wrong with that? It seems like a very true statement! Read the article - they bold the part I have in all caps.

    • The bold isnt too alarming, but in the video, you can sense his disappointment in the collapse of communism.whhipp
    • Which is really what the opposition to him are saying... he wants Communism over Capitalism. Its pretty much plain to see in this video.whhipp
    • to see in this video.whhipp
    • "he wants Communism over Capitalism" you just see whatever you want, don't you?aaux
    • its right there in the video, + tons of other historical facts support this ideology of hiswhhipp
    • I think you say "historical facts" but don't really know what those words meanTheBlueOne
    • "tons of other historical facts" such as? Let's face it, romney had virtually the same stance as obama on almost everything 10 years ago.aaux
    • within the last 8 years. Now he's suddenly the neocon hero. Funny how that worksaaux
    • Question at this point is who is going to do the least amount of damage. This election is more about damage control.yurimon
    • And romney would be good for damage control? More tax breaks to the rich? More warmongering?aaux
    • It's only damage control if you don't like where we're going. I see it as baby steps towards a civilized society.aaux
    • I dont think any one has the answer who is better. Problem is politicians wont solve your problems. What is defined as civil is subjective.yurimon
    • is subjective. Example British considered themselves civil while being an imperial power.yurimon
    • defined as civil I mean in error between 12 n 13yurimon
