The Road Not Taken

As we wind down the 2008 presidential election, I think we will look back on it and ask ourselves many questions about how we ended up with a Marxist-socialist in the White House. This election will have profound negative consequences on us as a people and on the world. As I have stated in previous postings, this trip did not start yesterday, it started over 70 years ago. It will take us at least 70 years to reverse this course, if we can do it all. I doubt that we can, but that does not mean that we cannot -- or I will not -- try.

So, for those of you who are committed to an Obama presidency, I would ask you to consider three decision criteria in selecting our next president: character, experience, and accomplishment. In the business world, these three criteria are generally evaluated through a review of a written resume, validated through a personal interview, and a final hiring decision confirmed through personal references. With respect to a personal resume, you have Obama's own books (Dreams from My Father and Audacity of Hope) and books written about him (The Obama Nation by Jerome Corsi and The Case Against Barack Obama by David Freddoso). With respect to interviews, you have Rick Warren's Saddleback debate, the Presidential Debates, and interviews with numerous cable pundits. However, one is hard pressed to confirm the hiring decision through personal references, as this is not an area the media wants to fully explore. So, I decided to find the most comprehensive list I could so that you could make an informed decision. They are summarized and illustrated through video documentary in the Cloward Piven Strategy - Part 2 - Political Allies and Advisors. As my father told me "You will be judged by the company you keep." I guess this does not apply to Barack Obama.

As for me, I think I will stay on The Road Not Taken (Robert Frost, 1920).

"I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference."
