All Americans Owe it to Black Americans...to Impeach Obama

Much has been said and written of the ‘white guilt’ element that was influential if not pivotal to the election of Barack Obama in 2008. Unserious, undiscerning people fell in love with the idea of electing the first black President, so much so that the serious matters of competence and experience and philosophy were ignored or deemed unworthy of consideration given the historic opportunity to redeem the nation’s past involvement with slavery. No doubt a huge portion if not an overwhelming majority of the reported 94% of blacks who voted for Obama were to some degree enchanted by the romantic notion of seeing this election happen “in my lifetime”.

Well, it’s time for Americans of all colors to come together to lend the ultimate helping hand to black Americans—by demanding the impeachment of Barack Obama. And yes, we are completely serious.

There could be no greater step of racial reconciliation than to demonstrate that:

• the ideals of the American Declaration of Independence are truly color-blind;

• they possess the God-given moral authority that has guided this nation to the highest standard of brotherhood in the world;

• the God-endowed rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of virtue and wisdom (a/k/a ‘happiness’) have always been and will ever be the principles around which prosperity and progress are to be found for all people;

• American ideals can never be harmonized with the godless elitism that says government knows best; government can raise your children; government can give you health; government can make you happy;

• the rule of law benefits all, while lawlessness harms everyone

• ‘redistributionism’ is not fair or just, but elitist theft and criminality applied to the very idea of individuality and 'earned success'

• faith in God and freedom is infinitely more satisfying and hope-inducing than faith in human government and regulatory control, and….

• That the inescapable and only conclusion from these demonstrated facts is that any politician—now or in the future, and regardless of race or gender--who does not ‘get’ these ideas is an unacceptable President of the United States of America. And a President of the United States of America who DOES understand and genuinely embrace the ideas will be good for all Americans—regardless of that President’s skin color or gender.

Barack Obama plainly does not understand or embrace American ideals. He lied to the American people to make it appear that he did. His lying has been made obvious by his actions in office. His lying about who he was and what he believes was and is unprecedented in the history of America. He does not deserve to continue in the office of President. And his skin color is irrelevant to any of these conclusions.

When ‘blacks’ and ‘browns’ and ‘yellows’ and ‘whites’ fully learn the importance of American ideals and the irrelevance of personalities, real freedom and opportunity and progress will open up for everyone. That’s what impeaching Obama can do for all Americans.
