Ursula, Jafar, people who don't like Oreos, etc.) are too close-minded to see the horrible changes that are occurring every single day in Obamerica. Where do I even start? Well, we have a woman running for president. Even worse, we have women Ghostbusters. Is this the Twilight Zone? Lol classic humor. But seriously, like me wearing jean shorts all throughout high school, these changes aren't cool at all. They're zero percent cool. No girls would talk to these changes if they saw them in the hallway.

     The tidal force of demographics had made the old America irrelevant. Any progressive policy agenda was now possible because we were no longer America. We Were Obamerica. A hip, happening place full of smiling gay couples, Muslim women in hijabs and transgender actors. We were all going to live in a New York City coffee house and work at Green Jobs and live in the post-national future.

     He was and persists as the major story of the historical drama in which America has been embroiled. In effect, he is the fractal version of the progressivist blank screen on which hallucinatory images can be projected. He is the face of Obamerica.

     Have you ever noticed that people who worry about inequality seem to be focused only on certain kinds of inequality? When they obsess about the income and wealth of the top 1%, they seem to be bothered by only some of those at the top, and not others.

     Forget Wal-Mart and skip your local gun show. The murderers of tomorrow will not be found wearing orange vests at your local sporting goods store. They won’t have NRA memberships or trophies on their walls. You won’t find them in America. Look for them in Obamerica.

[…] Chicago, the capital of Obamerica, is a city run by gangs and politicians.
