Obama sounds a little nervous about what has happened to the Democratic Party

[Moonglow]

You people can sit here and point fingers all day long yet the two parties do not have much of a split between them, they both still legally support illegals entering the nation, both parties support the illegal drug war on its citizens and the violation of the rights through the drug war. There are more examples of how much they are alike than not the same..The radicals are there because they have always been there in a minority status.

 

[petro]

Well, he fundamentally transformed the Democratic party.
Congratulations ?

Dear geniuses.....

Please ask yourself a few questions and answer honestly. You will then see that this hair on fire
story line about the Democratic Party going FAR LEFT since since 2012...is just weak BS.

If the law allowed and Barack Obama could run again...would he win the Dem nomination?

Was the last person to win the Dem nomination for president a FAR LEFTY?

Does a FAR LEFTY currently lead in 2020 polling?

Is nancy Pelosi a FAR LEFTY?

Chuck Schumer?

Tom Perez?

The Dem party is primarily mainstream....and the policies that come out of their leadership are
in alignment with what the majority of Americans say they want.

It is a great narrative....but it isn't reality.

Did the MSM tell you all that ?

Oh, this is a hopeful sign. If no one of significance stands up to the illiberal authoritarian leftists who have taken over the party, this all just gets worse. I'm hopeful something like this could create some momentum back towards sanity.

Obama: I worry progressives may undercut Democratic allies

"One of the things I do worry about sometimes among progressives in the United States —maybe it’s true here as well — is a certain kind of rigidity where we say, 'Uh, I’m sorry, this is how it’s going to be,' and then we start sometimes creating what’s called a 'circular firing squad,' where you start shooting at your allies because one of them has strayed from purity on the issues. And when that happens, typically the overall effort and movement weakens," he said.

"So I think whether you are speaking as a citizen or as a political leader or as an organizer … you have to recognize that the way we structure democracy requires you to take into account people who don’t agree with you, and that by definition means you’re not going to get 100 percent of what you want," he added.

He's arguing for actual liberalism to return to the party. Here's hoping.
.

Nope.
Barack is the primary cause of most of this mess, and he's trying to wash his hands of the results.

I think that's partially true. He may have created a monster, or at least played a role.

He didn't govern as a hardcore left winger though (as much as the hardcore Right wants to pretend that he did). But his wins definitely energized the Regressives within the party, and now here they are, in control of it.
.

Obama's been talking about a revolution since his college days.
Now that the revolution is here he's trying to keep from being blamed for making it happen.
Without Obama putting the right people in important positions these folks never would have been able to infiltrate the government and steal the cash needed to make it a reality.
Obama believes in overtaxing benefit programs to the point where they literally collapse from their own weight.
It took an ignorant socialist to make it possible in the United States......it's already happening all over Europe.

Wherever you might place him on the spectrum, he's looking to his left and is concerned.

I seriously doubt it.
Obama never wants to be blamed for his screwups.....or the results of the movement he helped put in place.
But he's very willing to take credit for the good that others do. 2 years into the Trump Administration and he's still taking credit for Trump's economy.

I think it's clear that both parties have guilty folks but Trump isn't part of that.
You want to excuse the criminality of the left by pointing out closet liberals in the GOP.
That just doesn't fly.....especially since we've been point this simple fact out for 3 years now.

Obama pushed the government to the left.....and as always happens....the nut-case leftist push it even further left.
But that is what they planned all along anyway.

 

[Rustic]

politics always shifts to the extreme; it is analogous to driving a car & having to 'over correct' when encountering some type of road hazard.
Obama had his style of governing & his policies in place. The white folks hated Obama & his policies so, the result was an 'over correction' by the pissed off white folks by electing the extremist Trump.
The current rumblings from the political left are the head winds of the coming 'over correction' in response to the extremism of Trump.
The longer this goes on, the moderate middle vanishes.
Good luck ..........

Lol
Only fools look at everything through race you ******* retard

 

[Rustic]

The fact remains, there would be no trump if there was no Obama… End of story

of course there were plenty that didn't hate Obama but there are many more that do; Trump is a by-product of the white hate for Obama. Any honest AmeriKKKan with a brain would admit this truth. Go ahead; try it.

It is a great narrative....but it isn't reality.

Have you ever seen a clear set of criteria to define who is supposed to be on the "far left"? One that would distinguish these nefarious critters from the "universal healthcare" and "social safety net" policies in the tradition of, say, FDR and Nixon?

Have you ever seen any evidence - with names, party positions, and all - to describe and explain how these above-defined nefarious critters "have taken over / are in control of the Democratic party"?

there were a hell of a lot who did not like his policies,but yet were called racists just because they did not agree with him,and any honest lefty with a brain would admit this truth. go ahead give it a try....
