IS BARACK OBAMA REALLY THE WORST PRERSIDENT IN HISTORY?


A new book soon to be released, “The Worst President In History – The Legacy of Barack Obama,” convincingly makes that assertion with over 200 detailed and referenced reasons.  There have been over 150 books written revealing much of the real truth about Barack Obama--his upbringing, his background, his dubious associates, and why he thinks and acts the way he does, etc.--but few will read those books.


With so little of these facts being raised by the media, we are left to assume that the days of investigative reporting and responsible journalism are behind us.  Therefore, the American people really know very little about our 44th President, the real Barack Obama, and his compatriots.  The mainstream press will never disclose these facts.  Few know that Obama was raised, taught by and associated all of his life, with radicals, socialists and communists who have shaped his character, his thoughts and his actions.   


After seven years as our president, we can see disturbing evidence about the true character of Barack Husein Obama.   All indications is that Barack Obama could, in fact, be the Worst President In History”.  
Consider the issues and the supporting references below:


The preponderance of evidence suggests that if ever a president of the United States deserved to be impeached by Congress and the American people, it is Barack Obama.   The list of reasons are numerous and growing every day.


The most divisive president in the past 100 years.   Rather than uniting Americans, no President in the last 100 years has divided the nation like Barack Obama.  He and his administration have intentionally and systematically attempted to divide the American people by race, gender, politics, religion and income.  Obama and his campaign people used race and lies to get him elected and he and his people have continue to use race to divide America during his tenure as president.


The most deceitful president ever.   Instead of the transparent administration he promised, Barack Obama has lied repeatedly to the American people and gotten away with it.   It is very easy to review speeches that Obama has given, both while campaigning and over the past seven years, and determine how many times that he either lied outright, told half-truths and/or distorted the real truth.  Obamacare is a prime example of his deceitfulness and the mainstream press never calls him out on his lies, even when they are obvious.


Disregard for the Constitution.    Instead of upholding and defending the constitution, which is the oath of the Presidency, no president has ever shown such total disregard for the Constitution of the United States like Barack Obama.  Consider how many times the American people had to go to court to stop Obama from circumventing the Constitution?  How many times have the American Courts ruled against Obama for his unlawful acts against America and the American people?


Total refusal to work with the opposite party in the Congress and Senate.  Instead of working with the opposition to actually get things done in Washington, Obama went into the office of the President of the United States with no intention of ever working with the Republican Party.  His party controlled both houses and he didn’t need to, but even when the American people repudiated Obama and elected Republicans to control the Congress and Senate, Obama continued to refuse to work with the conservative party at any time during his term as president, if the Congress did not agree with him 100%.  Sadly, concerning almost every action Obama has taken, only the most radical Democrats could agree. Obama’s attitude has always been, “my way or no way”.


Instead of recognizing the will of the people, Obama has deliberately and blatantly gone against
the desire of the American people and the rule of law.   Barack Obama has disregarded the will of the American people repeatedly, knowing that his actions would hurt America and the American people.  When the American people elected decidedly more conservative Congressmen and Senators in 2014 to show their dismay in the actions of the President and the liberal democrats - Obama did not blink nor take a step back.  He does not recognize the desires of the American people where it goes against his radical left wing philosophy.  He firmly believes that his socialist and radical agenda should prevail over the will of the American people.  The American people are just too stupid to understand.  The end justifies the means.


The most secretive administration ever.   Again, when campaigning, part of Obama’s campaign rhetoric was that his administration “would be the most transparent ever.”  Another major lie to America.  The Obama administration has been the most manipulative and secretive on record.  Much of the secretive nature of Obama and his administration is based on scandal after scandal, in order to protect himself and members of his administration from being caught in their impropriety and scandals.

National Debt.  When Obama took the oath of office, the National Debt was $10,626 trillion.  Upon leaving office in 2016, the national debt will be over 20 trillion dollars.
While campaigning, on July 3, 2008 -- the day before Independence Day -- Barack Obama said that adding $4 trillion in debt was irresponsible and "unpatriotic.
In his own words, he said,       “The problem is, is that the way Bush has done it over the last eight years is to take out a credit card from the Bank of China in the name of our children, driving up our national debt from $5 trillion for the first 42 presidents - #43 added $4 trillion by his lonesome, so that we now have over $9 trillion of debt that we are going to have to pay back -- $30,000 for every man, woman and child.     That's irresponsible.    It's unpatriotic.
    Since Obama doubled the national debt by adding $10 Trillion during his 8 years - what does that make him?


Obama could be America’s first radically Socialist president.   While there is much controversy around whether Barack Obama could truly be America’s first radical socialist president, it perhaps depends upon the definition of Socialist.  If socialism includes the control of industry by government and the control of the individual by the Government, then Obama fits the bill completely.
It appears that Obama could be the first president in the history of America that did everything possible to turn America into a socialist country.  While his supporters will attempt in every way possible to say that Obama is not a socialist, Obama is certainly to the left of Bernie Sanders, who proudly claims that he is a Socialist.  Obama’s close associates and mentors over the years have been socialists, communists and radicals.
Merriam-Webste defines socialism in part as - : a way of organizing a society in which major industries are owned and controlled by the government rather than by individual people and companies  and  "any of various economic and political theories advocating collective or governmental ownership and administration of the means of production and distribution of goods."


Or, in other words, as much government control over the people as possible.
Socialism, according to Karl Marx, “is the transition between capitalism and communism”. To achieve communism, Marx says, “there must be continuing revolution in which the fundamental principal is: The end justifies the means.”  Obama and his supporters within his administration have clearly employed this philosophy.
One needs to read Obama’s guidebook – “Rules For Radicals” by Saul Alinski to grasp Obamas actions.    http://truth4american.blogspot.com/search/label/Alinski


Obama is certainly a “Progressive”, as the press now defines the word.  “Progressive” now means any radical left-wing person or cause.  The term “Progressive” means change or reform.  Liberal Progressives use such terms as “income inequality” which appeals to all who want the government to give them more, which, sadly, is now more than 50% of the American population.   The term now includes Democrats, Socialists, Communists, Marxists, Unions, and any radical left group or cause that desires to remake America into a Socialist or communist country.  The press often uses the term, “Progressive Agenda”.   The “Progressive” strongly believes in big government and more control over the people and that a socialist or communist country would be best for the people.  As illustrated over the past few years, the “Progressive” will do anything, tell any lie, and commit any deceit, as long as it serves the overall purpose and goals.  The end justifies the means.  Examples of such well-known “Progressives” in addition to Obama would be Harry Reid, Hillary Clinton, Elizabeth Warren, Mayor of New York Bill de Blasio, Andrew Cuomo, the Governor of New York, Bernie Sanders, and many, many others.


Obamas Scandals and Controversies -  The scandals and controversies surrounding Obama and his administration just keep going on and on and never seem to stop.  How many of our government offices have had scandals under Obama, and how many has Obama ignored or tried to cover up?
Benghazi,  IRS,  Fast and Furious,  Department of Justice and the Associated Press Phone Records,  Keystone pipeline,  illegal immigrants, Obamacare,  Trade of 5 Taliban Generals for the deserter Bergdahl, Veteran’s Administration,  Eric Holder and the Department of Justice,  CIA, State Department,  The General Services Administration,  Solyndra,  Government appointments when Congress was in recess to circumvent the law, Deal with Iran, freeing over 600 enemy combatants from Gitmo to rejoin the fight and kill Americans, and on and on.


The most dishonest and treacherous president ever.  When America needs a leader to relieve joblessness,  the national debt, and to lead our allies abroad against foreign enemies, Barack Obama, with his illegal actions, cover-ups, numerous  scandals of his administration, and constant lies, has proven to be the most dishonest, distrustful, and the most treacherous president in American history.  His actions during his presidency illustrate repeatedly that he intends to do as much damage to America and the American people as he possibly can.  He is well on his way.  The damage that Obama has done to America and the American people and to the world can never be totally undone.  Any new administration can only attempt to undo some of the damage created by Barack Obama.

WHY WOULD ANY AMERICAN PRESIDENT …


Why would an American President go against Congress and the American people, to trade FIVE top Taliban generals for one lowlife Army deserter and most likely a traitor, unless it was to help the Taliban?  Obama knew that Bergdahl was a deserter and probably a traitor, because he had access to all of the Army files. The files allowed the Army to charge Bergdahl with dissertation and Obama knew that the FIVE generals would rejoin the fight to kill Americans and others.  Obama did this against the desire of Congress and the American people, and against federal law.  Is this the action of a President wanting to betray his own people and his country?  Why would he intentionally disgrace the Army and the Presidency?


Why would an American President go against Congress and the American people, to release all of the insidious murdering prisoners from Guantanamo Bay military prison, or bring them to American prisons where they enjoy full rights including habeas corpus in civilian courts, knowing that their cases probably would not stand up in U.S. courts?   In an article in the Weekly Standard, December 28, 2015, titled “Lying About Gitmo” Stephen Hayes, outlines in detail the 653 individuals that were held in Gitmo and released to date.  Of those, it has been determined that 196 have returned to battle to kill Americans and others.  He also exposes the fact that the President of the Unites has lied repeatedly about Gitmo.
Obama will do everything possible to free the remaining prisoners held at Guantanamo.
Another great way for Obama to assist the Taliban?


Why would an American President go against Congress and the American people to make a deal with Iran, America’s avowed enemy, to actually give them the nuclear bomb capabilities with America’s blessing, and over $150 billion to pay for their reign of terror against America, Israel, and other countries, and lift all of the sanctions placed against them for their evil actions without Iran even agreeing to the deal.  This was one of the best ways that Obama could assist the enemies of America and Israel.


Why would an American President go against Congress and the American people to allow from 10,000 to 100,000 Syrian refugees to come to the U.S., knowing that they cannot be vetted and that ISIS has surely infiltrated their ranks?  Obama knows that there will be those among the refugees that will be radical ISIS and will plot and successful in kill Americans.  

ONLY BARACK OBAMA WOULD DO ANYTHING HE COULD TO ASSIST THE ENEMY AND HURT AMERICA.

“PROGRESSIVE” The Meaning Today in America

 

“PROGRESSIVE”  The Meaning Today in America       
By Andy Petersen  September, 2015    for Truth4Americans

The word “Progressive,” by definition means “favoring or implementing social reform or new, liberal ideas:” (Oxford Dictionaries · © Oxford University Press)  It is now used every day by the press to describe causes and individuals that lean to the “left”.  The “Progressive” agenda, while favoring social reform and liberal ideas, is certainly nothing new.

“Progressive” now includes any far-left individual or cause that reflect the economic and socially destructive philosophies of the Socialist, Communist, and Marxist ideologies, and now appear to represent the Democratic platforms.  The term should be applied with derision to any other far-left (or far-right) individuals and causes which oppose the moral compass and foundations of liberty and democracy upon which the Republic of America was built

The “Progressive” individuals have, in their minds, certain goals that they believe must be accomplished to make their country and the world better.  These goals usually include more government control over the populace and that the people have less control over their government.
They want to change the government structure of their country to make the government strongly dominant over the people.  Or, in other words, to do away with democracy and personal liberty, and establish a socialist or communist government and country, where the government makes decisions for the people.  In America, this is their goal; difficult, but achievable.

An excellent description of “Progressive” today is in Glen Beck’s book “Common Sense”.  
“Progressivism has less to do with the parties and more to do with individuals who seek to redefine, reshape, and rebuild America into a country where individual liberties and personal property mean nothing if they conflict with the plans and goals of the State.”  

In many situations, to achieve the full “Progressive” goal, it would usually involve a revolution in the country and the establishment of a strong dictator.  Examples are Russia, China, Cuba, North Korea, Iran, etc.  After the revolution, the people are then controlled by a strong military force, and in turn, controlled by a Dictator and his handpicked stooges.  

The rights of the people, -- those once deemed inalienable-- are strongly suppressed, and ultimate control is given to the political leaders, usually a strong dictator who puts his cronies in important government and military positions.  Other strong measures are taken to control the people and suppress the possibility of an uprising by the people.  History shows this process repeatedly: freedom of the press is done away with and all press are totally controlled by the government, the confiscating of all firearms, control of all education as dictated by the government and government control and ownership of businesses and religion is extremely suppressed.  Businesses are confiscated and then exist for the purpose of the State.  

The “Progressive” aim to gain control of the people, must, in the process, destroy.  Basic freedoms of the individual must be taken away and the individual made subservient to the government.  To further indoctrinate, textbooks for schools and universities are written and approved by government leadership, with revisionist histories or philosophies slanted toward the radical ideas of the Progressives.

To achieve the long term goals of the “Progressive”, certain things must take place over a period of time.
These changes and the process to make those changes occur are well described in the book “Rules For Radicals”, by Saul Alinski, still used by Progressives today as a guide to accomplishing their goals to create a socialistic or communistic government.   https://archive.org/stream/RulesForRadicals/RulesForRadicals_djvu.txt  

Alinski, in his book, describes in part, twelve points that must be achieved by the Progressive to gain control over the people.  (Alenski)  

Below are 8 points that have been attributed to Alinski, though, in our research of Alenski’s two books, we have not been able to contribute these points directly to Saul Alenski.  Consider how well each of the eight points fit the progressives today.

1.   Healthcare  - Control health-care and you control the people.
2.   Poverty -  Increase the Poverty level as high as possible; poor people are easier to control and will not fight back if you are providing everything for them to live.  
3.   DebtIncrease the debt to an unsustainable level.  That way you are able to increase taxes, and this will produce more poverty.   
4.   Gun control -  Remove the ability to defend themselves from the Government.   That way you are able to create a police state.  
5.  Welfare -  Take control of every aspect of their lives (Food, Housing, and income)  
6.  Religion -.  Remove the belief in God from the Government and schools.  
7.   Education - Take control of what people read and listen to – take control of what children learn in school.  
8.  Class Warfare - Divide the people into the wealthy and the poor.  This will cause more discontent and it will be easier to take (Tax) the wealthy with the support of the poor.

To see how well Obama has accomplished these goals see:  8 POINTS TO DESTROY AMERICA

How well have the “Progressives” done over the past 10 years?

The “Progressive” is usually so passionate about their cause that any means justifies the end.  This includes lying, demonstrations, placing Progressives in government agencies, controlling the press, and having strong influence over the courts.  The Progressive considers lying to the people to achieve their goal is simply a very normal and worthwhile means of accomplish their goals.

Barack Obama and the Democrats lied over and over to the American people about Obamacare.  They promised health care rates would not rise and that Americans would not lose their preferred coverage. Both were categorical lies.
These lies were apparently perfectly OK because, their lies justified the end results.  Obamacare was passed only by the “Progressive” Democrats with lies and deceit while not a single Republican voted for what is measurably the most destructive bill to come out of Congress in years.

Obama has lied to the American people and Congress over and over about the “Iran Deal”. A terrible deal for America and for the world.  Like Obamacare, the Iran deal will get passed because Obama has enough “progressive” Democrats to override a veto.  The majority in Congress does not believe that the deal is good, the majority of Americans do not believe that the deal is good.  But Obama believes that it will be good for him and for Iran.  So he will get it done.

Barack Obama is the leading radical “Progressive” to ever be in American leadership.

Harry Reid, the Senate Majority Leader at the time, openly and deliberately lied to the American people during the 2012 presidential campaign, and did so from the Senate floor on public television; He publicly accused about Mitt Romney of not having paid taxes for 10 years. A proven lie.

Later, when confronted by the press about his lies he bragged to the CNN reporter,  “They can call it whatever they want. Romney didn’t win did he?

Reid, a real “Progressive” had the perfect and honest “Progressive” answer to the press and the American people.  He disgraced himself, the United States Senate, the State of Nevada, his church and he slapped the American people in the face.  But, it is all OK.   The means justified the end.

Note:  Reid knew full well what he was doing by making a slanderous statement that Romney had in fact not paid taxes.
He knew that he could not be sued by Romney since Article I, Section 6 of the Constitution states that members of Congress shall "be privileged from arrest during their attendance at the session of their respective Houses, and in going to and returning from the same; and for any speech or debate in either House, they shall not be questioned in any other place." The only exceptions to this rule are for treason, felonies and "breach of the peace."

The “Progressives” will use any means necessary to accomplish their goals.

One would think that the Progressives in America would never have the strength and power to radically change America toward a socialist or communist society-that it simply cannot happen in America.  America is strong, very democratic and the people control the government.   

But, look at all that has happened to America over the past 10 years.  

We have seen it as a result of “Progressive” individuals being elected to public office, and placed in strong government positions by those whom we elect, and weld their power to radically change America.
The Progressive has little regard for the real desires of the citizens, or for that matter, the government bodies, and courts, if those government bodies and courts go against their goals.  When placed in a position of power, the “Progressive’ will do anything and everything he or she possibly can to put individuals with the same far-left desires into powerful positions in government.  
In the United States, this would include virtually all government agencies, like The Department of State, the Department of Treasury, (Internal Revenue Service), the Department of Justice, the Department of Defense, Department of Health and Human Services, Department of Labor, Department of Veterans Affairs, the National Labor Relations Board, Department of Education, the Department of Commerce, and others.  Now all controlled by “Progressives.”

It can and is rapidly happening in America.

We have watched “progressives” stage sit-ins and riots, instigated, controlled and paid for by “progressive” left-wing individuals and organizations.  For example, the  “Occupy Wall Street” was organized and controlled by James Jones, and avowed communist that Obama had previously made one of his Czars.  “Occupy Wall Street” seems to have died down at for a time, but expect it to arise in full strength in the 2016 presidential campaign.  The “Black Lives Matter” movement is another great example, said on the news to be partly financed by, George Sores, a radical, far-left “Progressive.”  The purpose of this movement will be to disrupt any and all Republican meetings, conventions and candidates attempting to speak to the American people.
Often, such far-left movements are supported by unions who pay individuals to show up for the demonstration or bus people in.

The press is excellent in labeling “Progressives” as they are usually easy to identify, and will usually mention the word “progressive” when referring to them, or their causes in articles or newscasts.  Unfortunately, the meaning of the term is lost on the people and we are left to imagine only good can come from such a positive-sounding word.

Sadly, the progressive movement is taking control of America, slowly socializing the United states.  This is not difficult to do because once the majority of the people realize that they can live off of the government, receive government handouts, and do not have to work for these handouts, they will support any government that will give them the most.

Benjamin Franklin foretold,  “When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic”.




"The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But,
under the name of 'liberalism,' they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program,
until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened."
