Charles Krauthammer, a very measured man whom I admire, believes so:
Mr Krauthammer is precisely correct; Mr Obama is a man, as president, who purposely chooses “America in decline.” America’s enemies are emboldened, Obama is “concerned,” he “monitors,” and has done roughly nothing to hold America in the good light that he swore would return to our nation under his leadership. We are not respected internationally as he said we would be under his tenure.
Further, we have natural gas and oil reserves that can potentially rid the nation of its festering relationship with the Islamic Middle East. We have the capability to rid ourselves of a great deal of Blood or Conflict Oil.
Yet Mr Obama decides we shall not pursue independence. Instead, he chooses social divisiveness over unity and coherence, class and racial warfare over cohesiveness and singularity of national purpose.
As Mr Krauthammer states, Obama is a man who does not believe in American exceptionalism or American goodness. He seeks to place us completely in line with every other nation, no better than Cuba or Luxembourg or Syria or Zimbabwe or Burma. “American greatness” does not exist in Mr Obama’s sphere of thinking.
This philosophy informs every move Mr Obama makes — or doesn’t make.
