One of the tenents of the early Russian Communists seeking to bring down Czarist Russia was the theory that a truly reactionary government minister was better than a liberal one since their actions would so enrage the people, thus bringing on the revolution sooner rather than later.
This sort of pragmatic (somewhat cynical) thinking is not uncommon in dedicated revolutionaries, regardless of their political stripe.
Given what those White Supremecists believe about O, given their world view of the White'Black divide in America, I can see how they might be thrilled having a Black POTUS.
Every problem that he doesn't solve, will be his fault.
They might be right.
A Black POTUS will be a lovely scapegoat for them to point to as the root source of all problems. |
