Barack Obama - The New Face Of American Politics (NEW)

Barack Obama - The New Face Of American Politics (NEW) l 183 pages | PDF | 1.5 MB

Barack Obama's election to the U.S. Senate in 2004 is one of the most interesting and colorful political campaigns in recent history. His rousing keynote address at the Democratic National Convention that same year made his name a household word. The "Obama for Illinois" crusade offers important insights into American politics.

The authors explore the role of money, political party, ethnicity, religion, and the issues facing our society today. Obama's straightforward policy recommendations, message of hope and inclusion, and charismatic style propelled him to the national spotlight. Obama has the potential to shape America and to reshape U.S. politics as he campaigns for the White House. Obama's state senate career and his decision to enter the U.S. Senate race are examined in this book. Despite a primary field of six competitors, Obama received more than half of the Democratic vote, defeating a multimillionaire and the state comptroller, a well-known figure in the Democratic Party.

The general election imploded for the Republicans in the first few weeks of the campaign when it was revealed that their candidate was embroiled in a sex scandal. Alan Keyes, the ultraconservative, outspoken African American who had run for president twice and for the U.S. Senate from Maryland, was recruited to challenge Obama. But Obama, whose skill with the media and whose ability to raise funds was evident even in those early days of his career, easily won the race with 70 percent of the vote. The authors analyze Obama's ability to speak to the concerns of multiple constituencies by appealing to a coalition of voters that transcends race, class, and gender. At the start of his presidential run, Obama gives new meaning to the American dream.

Barack Obama - Unauthorized Biography (NEW - 12 Nov 2008)

Barack Obama | English | 2008 | PDF | 6.5 MB

Meet the REAL President Barack Obama
Front man for the ELITE and NEW WORLD ORDER

There are two books in this torrent, both by Webster Tarpley:

Book #1 - Barack Obama: Unauthorized Biography
Product Description from Amazon.com
Written by the author of the legendary 1992 expose of Bush the elder, this book works from a New Deal point of view.
Obama is exposed as a foundation operative and agent of Wall Street finance capital, controlled by Zbigniew Brzezinski, George Soros, and Goldman Sachs. Obama's mother was an official of the Ford Foundation, the World Bank, and US AID. By all indications, Obama was identified for future political use by Brzezinski at Columbia in 1981-1983, during Obama's secret lost years. Obama has worked for the Gamaliel Foundation, the Joyce Foundation, the Woods Fund, and the Annenberg Foundation as a community organizer - a poverty pimp, a cynical opportunist who uses suffering people as a political commodity. The foundation strategy is divide and conquer, pitting blacks against whites against Hispanics against Asians, to prevent any challenge to Wall Street. Racist provocateurs like Wright and Pfleger, along with Weatherman terrorist bombers Ayers and Dohrn, Obama's best friends, are cast in this mold. Rezko, Auchi, and Al-Sammarae represent the cesspool of Chicago graft and corruption in which Obama cavorts. Schooled in Nietzsche and Fanon, Obama qualifies as a postmodern fascist. An Obama administration would strive for brutal economic sacrifice and austerity to finance Wall Street bailouts, and for imperialist confrontation with Russia and China.

Book # 2 - Barack Obama: The Post Modern Coup - Making of a Manchurian Candidate
Product Description from Amazon.com
Barack Obama is a deeply troubled personality, the megalomaniac front man for a postmodern coup by the intelligence agencies, using fake polls, mobs of swarming adolescents, super-rich contributors, and orchestrated media hysteria to short-circuit normal politics and seize power. Obama comes from the orbit of the Ford Foundation, and has never won public office in a contested election. His guru and controller is Zbigniew Brzezinski, the deranged revanchist and Russia-hater who dominated the catastrophic Carter presidency 30 years ago. All indications are that Brzezinski recruited Obama at Columbia University a quarter century ago. Trilateral Commission co-founder Brzezinski wants a global showdown with Russia and China far more dangerous for the United States than the Bush-Cheney Iraq adventure. Obama's economics are pure Skull & Bones/Chicago school austerity and sacrifice for American working families, all designed to bail out the bankrupt Wall Street elitist financiers who own Obama. Obama's lemming legions and Kool-Aid cult candidacy hearken back to Italy in 1919-1922, and raise the question of postmodern fascism in the United States today. Obama is a recipe for a world tragedy. No American voter can afford to ignore the lessons contained in this book.

These books deal with this to a certain extent, but I'll also put this out there - Obama is a CIA asset at the minimum, and quite possibly an agent.

---Obama's mother was a CIA officer/asset (Worked for two known CIA fronts, The Ford Foundation and USAID)
---Obama was one of 8 students selected to study sovietology in Columbia's IR program under Brzezinski, one of the CIA's top-ranking officers.
---Obama went to work for a known CIA front, Business International Corporation (one of whose specialties was recruiting leaders of domestic left-wing organizations as CIA assets).
---Obama ran for state office and his opponent quit the race before the election. Obama ran for US Senate, and his opponent quit the race before the election.
---Obama ran for Pres., and his foreign policy chief was, who else, one of the CIA's top officers, Brzezinski...

Does Obama have CIA ties.... Oh, I don't know ! :o

Let's also not forget that no one in the mainstream knows much of anything about Barack Obama -

His college records and transcripts from Occidental College... sealed, not released.
His college records and transcripts from Harvard... sealed, not released.
His college records and transcripts from Columbia... sealed, not released
His former Client List at the Law Firm he worked for... sealed, not released.
His official birth certificate... sealed by the Governor of Hawaii, not released.

Change Has Come

As the posted electoral numbers climbed towards 270 on Tuesday night, a strange thing happened. People called faraway family members, wanting to bond with them. It reminded me of the moon landing when families wanted somehow to be together at this historic moment.

The polls had said Obama was going to win, but who believes the polls. Suddenly there was a new reality. During the campaign it had been commonplace to say that race was not a factor, that Obama was transcending race, that this was a post-racial era.

But in truth it was all about race, not in the "Goddamn America" of the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, but in the God Bless America of Barack Obama. This was the America that made the Rev. Jesse Jackson cry, almost in disbelief that this milestone had come.

One could look back on the road that had been traveled. President Truman integrated the armed forces and President Eisenhower sent troops to Little Rock to enforce integration at Central High School. President Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act and then the Voting Rights Act. President Reagan named General Colin Powell as his national security advisor, later to be secretary of state. And President Bush appointed Condoleeza Rice as his secretary of state.

We all knew that someday there would be an African-American in the Oval Office, but we didn't know when. And when it happened, suddenly America was a changed place. Black people displayed a new pride, and white managers greeted black employees with a new deference. It had taken a long time for "all men are created equal" to reach its ultimate reality in the highest office in the land.

Soon we will begin to consider what the 44th president will do about the financial crisis, about the environmental crisis, about our exposed positions in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan.

But for now just let it sink in. An African-American president of the United States of America.

SBY congratulates Obama

 


President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono congratulated Barack Obama after the U.S. senator successfully won the presidential elections Wednesday.

In a statement delivered at the Presidential Palace, President Yudhoyono went on to congratulate the American public for the successful running of the elections, Antara news agency reported.

"At this opportunity, I would like to congratulate Senator Barack Obama for his success in being chosen to become the President of the United States in the coming term and I also congratulate the American public who have exercised their political rights by participating in the presidential elections," Yudhoyono said.

Yudhoyono added he was looking forward to enhancing bilateral relations in a just and constructive manner so as to deliver justice and prosperity for both parties under the Obama administration.

Yudhoyono said he was also hoping Obama's connection with the country -- Obama resided in Jakarta for part of his childhood -- would facilitate a new chapter in U.S.-Indonesia ties.

The congratulatory address was given right after Senator John McCain conceded the election.

Yudhoyono applauded the political maturity of the American public, whom he characterized as politically ethical.

What Obama's Win Means

Obama's chief strategist David Axelrod told me he asked Barack Obama before he got into the race what he thought he could bring to the White House.

The next thing he said was: If I can win the White House I believe rest of the world will look at us and say a big part of the American dream, the part that says anybody can grow up to be president, is not a myth.

Obama has proved tonight that one part of the American dream, that part that says that anyone can work to be president, is true.

--George Stephanopoulos

20. "Gwen, we don't know if this climate change hoozie-what's-it is man made or if it's just a natural part of the 'End of Days. But I'm not gonna talk about that. I would like to talk about taxes, because with Barack Obama, you're gonna be paying higher taxes. But not with me and my fellow maverick.

And also, too, the great Ronald Reagan." ―Tina Fey, impersonating Sarah Palin in the vice presidential debate.

21.

And a bonus quote, which can be filed under just plain laughable:

"I'm sure I'm not the only male in America who, when Palin dropped her first wink, sat up a little straighter on the couch and said, 'Hey, I think she just winked at me.' And her smile. By the end, when she clearly knew she was doing well, it was so sparkling it was almost mesmerizing. It sent little starbursts through the screen and ricocheting around the living rooms of America. This is a quality that can't be learned; it's either something you have or you don't, and man, she's got it." ―National Review editor Rich Lowry, reacting to to Palin's performance in the vice presidential debate.

For added amusement, watch Keith Olbermann's dramatic reading of Lowry's love note to Palin and wait for the kicker at the end)
