Reps say Obama will win in 2012
I got the info below in a e-mail from my mom's cousin. I usually just let it be but this time I did reply.

Obama will win in 2012.........No Matter What

By Dr. Walter Williams



Can President Obama be defeated in 2012? No. He can't. I am going on record as saying that President Barak Obama will win a second term. The media won't tell you this because a good election campaign means hundreds of millions (or in Obama's case billions) of dollars to them in advertising. But the truth is, there simply are no conditions under which Barak Obama can be defeated in 2012.



The quality of the Republican candidate doesn't matter. Obama gets reelected. Nine percent unemployment? No problem. Obama will win. Gas prices moving toward five dollars a gallon? He still wins. The economy soars or goes into the gutter. Obama wins. War in the Middle East? He wins a second term. America's role as the leading Superpower disappears? Hurrah for Barak Obama! The U.S. government rushes toward bankruptcy, the dollar continues to sink on world markets and the price of daily goods and services soars due to inflation fueled by Obama's extraordinary deficit spending? Obama wins handily.



You are crazy Williams. Don't you understand how volatile politics can be when overall economic, government, and world conditions are declining?



Sure I do. And that's why I know Obama will win. The American people are notoriously ignorant of economics. And economics is the key to why Obama should be defeated. Even when Obama's policies lead the nation to final ruin, the majority of the American people are going to believe the bait-and-switch tactics Obama and his supporters in the media will use to explain why it isn't his fault. After all, things were much worse than understood when he took office.



Obama's reelection is really a very, very simple math problem. Consider the following:



1) Blacks will vote for Obama blindly. Period. Doesn't matter what he does.It's a race thing. He's one of us,



2) College educated women will vote for Obama. Though they will be offended by this, they swoon at his oratory. It's really not more complex than that,



3) Liberals will vote for Obama. He is their great hope,



4) Democrats will vote for Obama. He is the leader of their party and his coattails will carry them to victory nationwide,



5) Hispanics will vote for Obama. He is the path to citizenship for those who are illegal and Hispanic leaders recognize the political clout they carry in the Democratic Party,



6) Union members will vote overwhelmingly for Obama. He is their key to money and power in business, state and local politics,



7) Big Business will support Obama. They already have. He has almost $1 Billion dollars in his reelection purse gained largely from his connections with Big Business and is gaining more everyday. Big Business loves Obama because he gives them access to taxpayer money so long as they support his social and political agenda,



8) The media love him. They may attack the people who work for him, but they love him. After all, to not love him would be racist,



9) Most other minorities and special interest groups will vote for him. Oddly, the overwhelming majority of Jews and Muslims will support him because they won't vote Republican. American Indians will support him. Obviously homosexuals tend to vote Democratic. And lastly,



10) Approximately half of independents will vote for Obama. And he doesn't need anywhere near that number because he has all of the groups previously mentioned. The President will win an overwhelming victory in 2012.



Dr. Walter Williams

1. Don't you love people who think they are making a point
Edited on Sat Apr-16-11 04:26 PM by Drale
but are really just really really racist? I've found the people who complain that we complain are racism are the most raciest people around. "After all, to not love him would be racist" That is one of the stupidest things I think I've heard in a very long time.

2. Although I loathe Walter Williams...
I am willing to bet he did not author this due to the egregious factual errors it contains.

6. Does "Dr. Walter Williams" want any cheese with his whine
From what he is saying it sounds like Obama has indeed managed to be all things to all people, something that no republican including the sainted ronald raygun has ever been able to achieve.

Is this the self loathing black prof Dr Walter Williams who fills in for pigboy limpballs from time to time? Sure sounds like that douchebag.

8. How do you know...
Walter Williams actually authored this?

It has "hoax" written all over it, not that I have any interest at all in defending him.

7. This is total and complete projection
They take everything that is horribly wrong, everything that they are responsible for, and blame it on the victims and on the people trying to prevent them from destroying life as we know it.

And people believe them. Because people know that something is up, that the country is headed for destruction, that there are people with way too much money and power. But the Republican behind the curtain tells them no, it's that other guy doing this to you, not me.

9. He's saying Obama will win because a wide variety of Americans support him.
Yeah, so...that's how every person wins ANY election. A wide variety of support. It is that way if you run for Class President or President of the United States.

I guess, oddly enough, I totally agree with this guy.

14. R. Walter Williams, guest host for Limdebauchery is a racist sexist pig;
Because that is one of the worst racist and sexist rants I've read in a while.

According to him, Blacks will vote because its a race thing, college educated women will vote with their vaginas, and every non-white minority will vote because Obama will basically turn the government over to them. His subtext is that the poor inteligent beleaguered male white folk haven't a chance.

16. The list doesn't take into account the only people that matter (aside from corps).. SWING VOTERS.
And I suspect whether or not they vote for him depends on the severity of the oil-induced double-dip depression.

17. What a racist, sexist, homophobic idiot.
Obama will win because he is the better person for the job. Nothing more. And if he thinks the media loves Obama, he is living in lala land. The media attacks Obama and the Democrats every chance it gets.. especially Fox "News".

18. What's Funny Is That There Will Be People Who Say He's NOT Racist
Because he a black man (reportedly) spewing all that crap. But if it walks like a duck, talks like a duck...
