2. They'll do it to get media headlines, wipe his name out of history, and win in 2016, in that order.

That is what they've said all along, since he was elected in 2008, even before he took office in 2009. They even tried to say he didn't take the oath of office correctly. Anything to not have 'that man' in their 'white' house.

But it's not just about race. The symbolism of the first black president is something which they've always feared. Because it brings out everything that has made this nation lose its soul, slavery. It goes more to the deep truth of America's economic and social system than what was done to natives.

In my strange mind, the dicotomy of black and white is the conundrum by which we rise or fail. We can choose to fail, the Tea Party like Rush, Beck and the Libertarians want the nation to fail, to be dissolved. Easier to take control that way.

I'm not particularly into religion, but to my way of thinking and I admit that I entertain strange thoughts at times, the salvation of the white majority on a spiritual level cannot be achieved without embracing AAs.

Not in a tepid manner, but wholeheartedly. The regressives' worst fear is being exposed because and they know they are wrong. They must share this land, or lose it all.

Obama's open heart and higher purpose drives them crazy. They appear badly beside him, their guilt and bad qualities cannot compete and they know it so they make a lot of noise to divert the attention off their shame.

JMHO.
