I am not faulting you or hating on you for your affection for the 44th President, it is obvious in retrospection it is a universal affliction without contrition to the reality of socio-economic restrictions of the poor and oppressed. I just want you to keep your eyes on the prize so you will not be surprise by the lies, alibis and distortions that comes with the White House territory, with all of its political contortions and false glory. You see, the situation requires more than an address to impress that change will manifest simply by being professed at press conferences, in a cabinet or a town hall meeting, when the greedy continues exploit in capitalist elation void any hesitation because CEO’s believe they are safe with no fear of incrimination. 

You say give him time to unwind a stimulus plan, while the  Republican’s continue to make demands to undermine retooling of America. They being obstructionist seeking to slow the rush in us to live better lives. Yet, those in the know knows this is no time to repose when economic woes cascades like Niagara falls leaving the lower classes under black and white kaffiyeh shawls of socio-economic malnutrition. They starving for relief that welfare and food stamps can’t ease the lack of funds that has undone middle class dreams of prosperity. For clarity it should be reiterated the stimulus package will result in Barack being demeaned, prompt the implementation of new schemes, to ensure the plutocrats continue to govern with Obama as the leader of their economic team. However, in his State of the Union speech in an effort to teach, Obama sought to distinguished  himself from the general political leech. But not since LBJ and MLK has government policies supported minorities in any significant way.  So, don’t blame me for being cynical when U.S. political history towards people of color has proven to be criminal. 

I only ask that you consider the pathology of a polymorphous pertinacious politician, a chameleon of kaleidoscopic proportion posturing as a people person whose policies are dictated by the highest bidder. A transmitter of the ideals of homogeneity with the proclivity to speak with a silver fork tongue, when all is said and done, the plutocrats will have gotten more money and run.  Another multi-billion dollar bailout from one who may not epitomize the proverbial sellout with a charismatic smile. I am just exclaiming progressive young folks need to keep a watch-out all the while, since poor people are hanging on to his every word as he gesticulate like a puppeteer with a messiah complex having no fear, urging genuflection to enhance his Presidential career, steering the masses to support him for another 4 years. 

As this seemingly ubiquitous incestuous system of avarice, continuously carnivorously nourishes on seasoned American workers, on the putrid green altar of capitalism, in the Temple of the Federal Reserve Bank, where they ritualistically proclaim “In God We Trust.” “We The People” must discuss and organize our collective disgust of this global economic bust. Globalization has taken its toll, manufacturing has slowed, the stock market has foretold that conspicuous consumption has closed. Common folks produce the wealth, but have no say in how it is shared, their lives in disrepair full of despair with foreclosures, pink slips and no way to spare a dime in this clime, void a collective survival mode there is no extol of a humanitarian code that we are all suffering together.  So, how can I blame you for falling for a White House color change, after being told Americans could once again compete, after recovering from this global economic retreat, even though the name of the game remains the same, class struggle should now be claimed, if progressive folks take the reins, and forge a mass and popular movement including a national agenda to upend the capitalist-imperialist reign. To demand reparations and redistribution of the wealth, now that is a stimulus plan without the stealth, can it be said such notion is like magic portion, that only a social revolution can dispense without suspense, by applying a little common sense. Putting the money directly in the hands of the oppressed masses, unfortunately, such idea passes as socialist. But it is often said if common sense were common, all of these Fools would have it.  Obama-mania has claimed you! But can you see the forest beyond the tree? “We The People” must take a stand, and free the land of political leeches, with their speeches blinding us with rhetoric about bipartisan unity. I am not splitting hairs, it is just that I care that we learn to share when it comes to our socio-economic affairs. Damn the politicians with their flair, because it makes no difference when they don’t dare to hold capitalist institutions accountable. Mass mobilization, general strikes, taking the fight to D.C., demanding the end of imperialist wars from sea to shining seas, for public ownership of the means of production, that will cause a reduction in capitalist greed. For big agri-businesses, the building of cooperative farming like, Victory Gardens would be alarming, bartering and trading no longer delaying our collective voices must be heard. If market forces and consumer spending is the engine of this machine, then, “We The People” must take control, reclaim our revolutionary souls, like in the laws of the natural order of things.

Remember: We Are Our Own Liberators!
