Divisiveness

It's obvious that the Democrat Party does better when the nation is horribly divided.

when Barack Obama became president, the racists came out of the woodwork. you can blame them for dividing the nation.
the GOP aided and abetted the racists by supporting the conspiracy theories that Obama wasn't a citizen, etc. Speaker Boehner was asked why he didn't correct the birthers in his party and he insisted it wasn't his place to lead his constituents. well, whose place was it?

This is a long read, but it lists everything that Obama has done and said that has helped divide this country. I'm sure most won't read this.....I'm also sure if they did there would be very little they could argue with (but they'll try!).
This section of DiscoverTheNetworks.org documents how Barack Obama has based his career on fomenting group-based resentments and thereby energizing his political base. "Hope and change" has, in practice, all too often become "divide and conquer." Obama's propensity to pit populations and “interests” against each other in this manner is an outgrowth of the socialist worldview that sees all human interactions in terms of "class struggles." The divisions that Obama seeks to promote, as the following material shows, are not only those of class, but also of race, ethnicity, and sex.

I'm sure you did "dislike" this Middleview....so tell us all what is not true?
1. The republicans announced on election night that they'd stop any Obama initiative and legislation. He wasn't even president yet.
2. The Tea Party, claiming to be founded entirely based on the national debt, government spending and deficit budgets....came into being in February 2009. Obama had been president for a week.
3. Mitch McConnells singular priority was to ensure that Obama was a one term president. It wasn't important that our economy was in the toilet. It didn't matter that we were involved in two wars....what was important was whether or not Obama was reelected....and that was in 2008!
Republicans launched the birther crap. Republicans pushed the nonsense that Obama was a Muslim. Republicans spread the rumors that Obama had belonged to some gay bathhouse and that he'd had something to do with killing two members of his church because they knew he was gay. The former republican VP said that Obama would not defend the country and that we'd be attacked again. Republicans spread the story that Obama had traveled around the world on an apology tour.
All of that was false. All of it was intended to divide and conquer. And what had Obama done that you think is divisive? Name one thing.....

That doesn't answer my question. Did you read my link? These are things Obama has done on his own. It has nothing to do with what the Republicans may have tried to do. These things are HIS! Prove to me where these are lies.
We need a strong person to lead us into the future and Democrats don't grow them as strong as we're going to need after this weak crap has gone on for so long. I don't see that person yet, but I"ll know him when I see him.
I didn't say they are lies. I don't think anything he has said is divisive. If the shoe fits, it's ugly. Tell me one thing he said that is false.
The republicans burglarized the democratic HQ and got busted. Then the president fired the prosecutors to stop the investigation.....the president was forced to resign...after his VP had resigned to avoid going to jail....
The republicans sold weapons to Iran....still in existance. The next repub VP pardoned all participants....no problem, eh Booger?
The next repub pres lies his ass off saying Iraq had something to do with 911, had arranged to buy uranium from Niger and then revealed the identity of a covert CIA agent....
And yet the republican party is still in existance.....but you think the democratic party should be banned because the retardlicans have alleged one scandal after another...proven nothing...and announce yet another investigation?
I can't believe you think you're a patriot, in any sense of the term. If you were a patriot you'd have already called for banning the republican party.

The birther thing started with Hillary. And many folks who wanted Hillary to get the nod jumped onto that wagon of hers and rode it just as well as any conservative did. The lefties dropped it fast when told to. The conservatives, not so quickly. So thank your girl there for the "racist" accusation that Obama wasn't an American citizen.
Not long after, the whole thing was pretty much dropped except for the few who felt compelled to believe what Obama's family had to say. The people who talk about the birther thing now are you lefties.
As for Boehner, no, he's not supposed to lead his constituents. He's there to work FOR his constituents. Lefties don't get that in America your government isn't supposed to tell you what to think, what ideas to adopt and what to talk about.
No, Hillary did not start the birther crap. Find a quote from Hillary that would support that myth. In fact it was Alan Keyes.

in 2008 he promised to be a "post racial" president.
with the shrinking prospects for the democratic party, he's now facing polticial reality - he believes in pandering to his "base"

Dropped quickly?...Hardly, go out to Red State America still plenty who believe that Bullshit...None of it put out by "Hillary".....Total non sense
Strong? As in Dick Cheney? Do you think George W. Bush was "strong"? Was it "strong" to let your VP and appointees reveal the identity of a covert CIA agent? Was it strength that led Bush to fire 9 DOJ prosecutors because they weren't bringing charges against democratic candidates per instructions from Karl Rove?
