In spite of the eloquence, the government of Hon. Obama is oligarchic and no change is in sight. His only so-called accomplishment is the Stimulus that is putting money in the pockets of the filthy rich at the expense of the Worker. The difference with Bush is only that Bush could not put a couple of sentences together that would make sense. Economically, both have supported Madoff, Paulson and the like, and President Obama persists in calling what he is doing “a change”.
Unemployment is rising, nobody that lost his house has been compensated, the hungry is hungrier and the poor is poorer; President Obama is explaining us that his change is for the worst!
He was elected by the people of America, not by politics with their lobbyists, special interests and financial crooks. The independent apolitical people of America is proud not to belong in the corral of corruption of Washington. But, apparently, Hon. Obama has crossed the aisle and has joined the enemies of the people... What to do, when your children are crying begging for food and the President is dancing mambo-jambo with his pals in the splendid palaces of the G-20 bosses?
There remains still the ultimate form of representation: the Unions. They must cover-up for president Obama while he is partying whenever an eloquent speech pep-talk-like is needed by his colleagues, in Paris, in Moscow, in Ottawa or in Brazilia... Dude Obama is able to cheer-up a corpse!
The Unions must organise all their locals as campaign offices (as affective as the campaign office of Obama himself) for apolitical independent candidates selected locally within the communities, who would formally commit to the electors to represent the interests of the riding, nothing else. The workers of America have enough time until 2011 to ensure that no politico presently in the Capitol is reelected; a local representative must take his place to represent in the Congress and the Senate the people that elected him, back home. Then America would have a representative Capitolio for the people, by the people and with the people. In 2012 President Obama may belatedly pick up the solemn allegiances that he publicized so eloquently in the last campaign.
