Barack Obama and the Fundamental Transformation of America
Robert A. Hall
“We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America.” --Barack Obama, October 30, 2008.
As president, Barack Obama has cynically broken promise after promise, often enough that it’s hard to believe his cognitive functioning is so impaired that he ever thought he could keep most of them. He wouldn’t, of course, be the only politician to make meaningless pledges to get elected.
Unfortunately, his promise to fundamentally transform America is one he has kept. If he is reelected on November 6, 2012, I believe that the transformation from the free Republic we have cherished will be irreversible and permanent. And that the country will then be hopelessly on the road to fiscal, social and political collapse.
