Description | During the 2008 election, then-candidate Barack Obama shocked the liberal establishment (and infuriated Bill Clinton as a pleasant byproduct) by calling Ronald Reagan’s 1980 election and presidency monumental. In other words he was a “game changing” leader, if you will.
Obama knew what he was doing, even as many suspect he is at best only a mediocre student of American presidential history.
To wit, he almost never quotes previous chief executives or cites American historical precedents to support his Jacobinistic policies.
Perhaps it is because no previous chief executive ever attempted to make Americans wholly depended upon Big Government. |
