Subject: RE: BS: Obama Getting a Bad Rap Here...
The Democratic Party has been corrupted by money and has become the new Republican Party whereas the Republican Party has become the new Fascist Party.

Obama may not have control over this but contributes to this by being a player in the political game.

He has given himself over to the military establishment in the commission of war crimes.

Bradley Manning's verdict will be one of the blots on his presidency. The other will be his
acceptance of the deployment of drones. I suspect he will approve the XL Pipeline unless
he "kicks the can down the road". His misguided support of Lawrence Summers contributes to the false program of "austerity" and "sequester" which is leading our nation into bankruptcy.

Money has corrupted politics and made every politician a suspect, even the good ones such as Bernie Sanders of Vermont, John Lewis of Georgia and Barbara Lee (Texas?) It has corrupted the Supreme Court and made the Congress and Senate ineffectual. Criticisms of Obama are justified and it's racist to say that he's automatically a good president because he is black.

There are many black people who I would like to see president who I think are more qualified.
