I thought it explained the M. Obama quote: it sounds like she thinks we will be so happy working together in the transformed paradise. Socialism did not work then and it will not work now. No matter how compelling the message, how fearful the population and how desperate the economy. Obama is a zero sum game.
“John, how is this quote by Michelle Obama something that would reflect negatively on Obama?”
“Barack Obama will require you to work. He is going to demand that you shed your cynicism. That you put down your divisions. That you come out of your isolation, that you move out of your comfort zones. That you push yourselves to be better. And that you engage. Barack will never allow you to go back to your lives as usual, uninvolved, uninformed”.
