Communists? Socialists? In America? You're just kidden, don't you?
Even if Obama would be communist, socialist, capitalist... it wouldn't change a thing.
If TPTB want communism, they'll get communism (but they don't want it)
If TPTB want socialism, they'll get socialism (but they don't want it)
If TPTB want fascism, they'll get fascism (that, they want very bad)
The president merely can change the surface, the image. Obama would be liked more abroad then McCain, that's for sure. Ok, that's something.
The many PTB have their scenarios ready, all fighting to get theirs through. With Bush in place for 8 years, one scenario has had the advantage: the installation of fascism (search here or Google for Noami Wolf, Noami Klein and if you cannot help it: Alex Jones).
Is this fascism a goal in itself or just the means to achieve something else? Difficult question.
If we see the global financial collapse, the economic collapse; maybe also sudden climate changes, pole shifts or other possible catastrophes, then maybe you can understand why they want Martial Law in place to maintain law and order.
Maybe they fear the public will come to realize how they have been used, exploited, enslaved, stolen from... for decades; so they fear an upraising, revolt?
The things they see in the future are bad in their eyes, so they need Martial Law?
It also could be fascism is the ultimate way to continu milking the people dry?
Whatever. Fascism is being installed slowly but firmly.
If you keep this in mind, what difference will it make, what president you have. And if it makes any difference, what president would you want?
For instance, if you're convinced Martial Law is on it's way, what president would you want in that case? A hardened military man (with the risk Palin has to take over)? A softy family man?
Hard times are coming anyhow. Who do you want?
If you're thinking about communism, socialism... now... I believe you're really missing the point.
