Obama May Return to Minor Leagues of Community Organizing in January 2017

obamamyworkAs we watch the fabric of American Society continue to be torn asunder by those, who claim to champion “Social Justice”, when in fact, they are championing a failed political ideology, led by a United States President, who seems more intent on dividing us that uniting us, many of us are longing for the day when this long National Nightmare will be over.

So, what will Barack Hussein Obama do when he steps down from the Throne of the Regime?

Jim Sink of Bloomberg Politics reports that

One day when he’s done wrangling with the Iranians and congressional Republicans, President Barack Obama plans to get back to where he once belonged.

The most powerful man in the world wants to return to community organizing after he hands over the keys to the White House in 2017, he told middle-school students at a public library in Washington’s Anacostia neighborhood today.

 “I’ll be done being president in a couple of years and I’ll still be a pretty young man,” he said. “And so I’ll go back to doing the kinds of work I was doing before, just trying to find ways to help people.”

Obama, who will be 55 years old when he leaves office in 2017, said his post-presidential agenda includes helping children get educations and better access to the job market, and luring businesses into low-income neighborhoods. Just out of college, he worked on Chicago’s South Side as a community organizer, a career choice that earned him much derision from conservative quarters

“That’s the kind of work that I really love to do,” he said, after one child asked what inspired him to seek the presidency.

The president’s comments came against the backdrop of unrest in Baltimore, where protests and riots have followed the April 19 death of Freddie Gray, 25, who suffered spinal-cord injuries while in policy custody. Earlier this week, Obama said the violence in Baltimore was indicative of a “slow-rolling crisis” in the nation’s inner cities that would require “some soul-searching.”

“If our society really wanted to solve the problem, we could,” he said at an April 28 news conference. “It’s just it would require everybody saying this is important, this is significant, and that we don’t just pay attention to these communities when a CVS burns.”

 The president has previously hinted that he wanted to dedicate his post-presidential life to addressing those issues. Last June, Obama said at a town hall-style meeting that he and his wife, Michelle, had discussions about “developing young people and working with them and creating more institutions to promote young leadership.”

He said at the town hall, however, that his first move, will be to plant himself on “a beach somewhere, drinking out of a coconut.” 

From 1985 – 1988, Obama was a Community Organizer in Chicago.  What does a Community Organizer do?  I’m glad you asked.

Per Byron York in an article found at nationalreview.com:

Community organizing is most identified with the left-wing Chicago activist Saul Alinsky (1909-72), who pretty much defined the profession. In his classic book, Rules for Radicals, Alinsky wrote that a successful organizer should be “an abrasive agent to rub raw the resentments of the people of the community; to fan latent hostilities of many of the people to the point of overt expressions.” Once such hostilities were “whipped up to a fighting pitch,” Alinsky continued, the organizer steered his group toward confrontation, in the form of picketing, demonstrating, and general hell-raising.

Obama was hired by Jerry Kellman, a New Yorker who had gotten into organizing in the 1960s.  Kellman was trying to help laid-off factory workers on the far South Side of Chicago, in a nearly 100% black community.   He led a group, the Calumet Community Religious Conference, that had been created by several local Catholic churches in the industrial community.   Kellman was advised to hire a black organizer for a new spinoff from CCRC.  They called it the Developing Communities Project, designed to focus solely on the Chicago part of the area.

One of Obama’s projects while he was there, was to try to build an alliance of white and black churches and enlist them in the cause of social justice.  Obama had a problem, though.   He didn’t go to church himself.   And that, brothers and sisters, is how Obama, drawn to the preaching of Rev. Jeremiah Wright (and a political opportunity), joined Trinity United Church of Christ on 95th Street.

If you ask Obama’s fellow Community Organizers what his most significant accomplishments were, they’ll say two things: the expansion of a city summer-job program for South Side teenagers and the removal of asbestos from one of the area’s oldest housing projects.   Those  were his biggest victories.

As Americans have found out, the skills of a “professional Community Organizer”, while persuasive among those who seek to be “organized”, do not translates into be effective, or even serviceable in performing the duties of the President of the United States of America.

A President must be color blind, in order to treat all citizens equally under the law. Unfortunately, this President is not, as exhibited but his remarks in every single situation, involving a member of the Black Community and local police.

His confrontational attitude, developed to a finely honed blade, during his years as a “Professional Community Organizer” lends itself better to the role of a local activist/agitator, than to the responsibilities of the “Leader of the Free World”.

His failures in both his Domestic and Foreign Policy back my previous statement up, for the entire world to see.

Instead of making “the oceans rise and fall”, “healing our nation”, and bringing “hope and change”, Barack Hussein Obama has sown the seeds of Racial Division, Class Warfare, and Anti-Christian Intolerance.

Instead of leading Americans boldly into a bright future, his actions have led us into an era of distrust, reminiscent of a dark past in our own history, or, even, perhaps, that of 1930s Germany or the Russian Revolution.

This distrust and unrest of which I write, is spilling into our local communities, with black youth, attacking innocent people, black and white, in wanton hissy fits of violence and vandalizing, as Baltimore bore witness to, last Monday night.

Obama’s dream of a “Socialist Utopia”, in which finally he and the rest of the “smartest people in the room” are successful in installing a failed political ideology in the United States, replacing the proven success of our Constitutional Republic, installed by our Founding Fathers, has turned into a Failure of a Presidential Administration…a polarizing nightmare, which threatens to turn “The Shining City Upon a Hill” into a Third World Barrio.

Obama should have remained a Minor League Community Organizer.

At least, he was good at that.

Until He Comes,

KJ
