I think he meant it in the same way as if I said, regarding the football program at Florida State University, that Bobby Bowden didn't build that.
Of course Bowden had a HUGE role. He took the FSU program from basically not existing, to a national powerhouse.
But did HE, and he alone, build that? No. He had thousands of players who put work into that program. Dozens of assistant coaches. Millions of fans paying for tickets.
Same concept for a business owner. Sure, he gets huge credit, and the majority of credit, for taking the risk. But he wouldn't have made one damn cent if every employee he hired had to be taught how to read before starting work. He would've gone out of business if someone broke into his store every week and stole all his merchandise. Does he get the majority of credit, and the majority of his own profits? Of course.
Does he get to stand on a hill, look down on everyone else, and claim he and he alone is solely responsible for that business having success? No.
Don't forget the speech where Michelle says, "Barack's Kenyan roots".

Actually what she said was far more interesting but is after all what Obama's bio claimed for over 17 years. If you listen to this take note of what Mrs. Obama says at the very beginning and what is the cause of the AIDS epidemic.

Some Guy said:In other words; if you're going to blame the CEOs of large banks for the financial collapse: shouldn't you blame every single person who worked for those banks? Every single branch, all the way down to the janitor? Even the mailman who delivers their mail? They all had a hand in it, after all.
Obama haters still grasping at straws! If you run an espresso coffee shop, did you pick the coffee beans or grow them, did you roast them and grind them, package them and ship them? Did you offer them for sale to merchants who have restaurants and coffee shops? Or did someone else do that and help you do what you do successfully? If you own a clothing store, did someone else manufacture the threads, weave the textiles, make fabrics, make patterns, cut the patterns, sew the garments, ship them and offer them for sale to you the retailer? Or did you do all of this totally on your own? If you are a sucessful doctor, did someone else learn the details you know and then teach you? Did others do research on diseases and medical devices and technology and manufacture/make advanced equipment and medicen for you to utilize in your success? Or did you do that all on your own? If you are any of these businesses or any other, did you physically build the roads and bridges that allow your products to travel to you? Did you build the internet and all the communication technology that allows you to do all the things you do, or did someone else? For that matter, did you create the asphalt and the steel for our roads and infrastructure so your business could thrive in building the infrastructure mostly granted to you by government contracts. 1.5 minutes to destroy the nonsense that Obama meant something other than simply this.
"The point is that, when we succeed, we succeed because our individual initiatives, but also because we do things together."
But go ahead and build an entire campaign on a minor gramatical mistake.

It's really not the same. Government acts on behalf of it's constituents and uses it's constituents' money to build things that benefit everyone. Hence, the word "public."
Quite simply: if infrastructure had anything to do with successful business, then everyone who's ever tried to create a business would have been successful, and we know that's not true. And it's easy to say that "he succeeded because his employees did a good job." Sure. Who hired those employees? Who paid them to do a good job? Who gave them the direction they needed (i.e. responsibilities)?In other words; if you're going to blame the CEOs of large banks for the financial collapse: shouldn't you blame every single person who worked for those banks? Every single branch, all the way down to the janitor? Even the mailman who delivers their mail? They all had a hand in it, after all.

I know it hurts your 2 brain cells to try to think out of the republican box and sends them richoceting off the inside of your empty skull. Most republicans are syncopants so canned responses like this one are the norm. I feel sorry for you!
"The point is that, when we succeed, we succeed because our individual initiatives, but also because we do things together."

It wont be on a grammatical error but years of class warfare rhetoric. That is why this has legs. Get used to hit. It hasnt even reached its second wind yet.
All the left can do is scream "OUT OF CONTEXT!!!!."
