McCain is fond of citing Goldwater on the stump. But Democrats don't talk much about Johnson anymore, Dallek notes. Last Aug. 27 was the 100th anniversary of Johnson's birth. But despite the urging of some old admirers, no mention of that was made at the Democratic convention at which Obama was nominated. The reason, Dallek says, is almost certainly the legacy of Vietnam and its uncomfortable parallels with the war in Iraq. But LBJ's star might yet rise again, Dallek suggests—especially if the country's economic woes continue. Then the new Obama Democrats might start to focus more on Johnson's economic and domestic policies—not to mention his effective deflection of the "socialist" label.

    To all those who have supported the constant killing of the unborn, entitlements for those who don???t deserve them, for assisting undocumented illegals, to corrupted politicians, sanctuary cities, to USDA agents forcing the implantation of chips into the livestock herds of America, to those pushing social security numbers and locater chips on newborns, to thieves who forced an unconstitutional income tax on ???sovereign??? American workers, for the loss of privacy, the restraint of second amendment natural rights, to BATFE master search and arrest warrants, to SWAT teams and Taser Thugs in every hamlet in the land, to all of the homosexual rights fanatics and bullies who use their perverted lifestyles to intimidate my grandchildren in school and in the parks, to drug dealers who employ minority kids in Obama???s south Chicago neighborhoods, and the young men and women in our military who are now mercenaries trained to rove our streets when the first shots are fired and produce body counts similar to the ones in Iraq, you have become my potential enemy.

    Obama represents a culture of extreme left wing liberals, with an agenda to reshape the American way of life. He has adopted a Niccolò Machiavelli."The Prince" attitude, justifying any means to achieve the end he desires. His represented positions, with respect to several critical issues, are not consistent with his historical stances, actions, or associations. He is a deceiver of the first class, with a golden mouth with which to fool the people, spewing out what ever will tickle their ears. This man is no patriot, he???s not even un-American, he???s anti-American. Beware Americans, what you see, is not what you???ll get.

    The likely dangers of an Obama presidency ought to be obvious by now. Despite the man???s cool and personable veneer, he is a dangerous leftist who seeks to redistribute wealth, further expand government, and promote a divisive multiculturalism.
