"#6: President in Hiding"


Glenn Greenwald in one of his many articles takes a look at how the president of the United States, Barack Obama, has persecuted more people under the espionage act than all other presidents combined.  The presidents original stance back in 2008 was that whistleblowers in this nation are a thing of patriotism and should be protected because it can “sometimes save lives and save taxpayer dollars”.  Greenwald points out Barack’s flaws and his flip-flopping along with his killing spree of innocent people using drone strikes that has, in the last two weeks, killed three American citizens.  I’m sure if this gets out to the public in a more mass media fashion there could easily be calls for an impeachment trial regarding his lack of regard for our rights as American citizens.  One bad representation of Obama, such as this, could change the nature of the political game at this time, especially with it being election season.  Of course any president is going to want to hide the fact that they’re doing something illegal when it involves citizens of the United States and could make his lose his candidacy for presidency.  I am fairly certain that if one were to delve deep into the archives of American history, past what we learn in school, one would be amazed and in horror as to what they could find out about our nation.  The secrecy did not begin with and will not end with President Barack Obama unless the people rise up and quit being led around like sheep.  I do not see the American citizenry giving up its laid back and lackluster view on the world in which we live.  Being led like a sheep is what most citizens want, they don’t want to think for themselves, but they do want the ability to take of or be taken care of. 

If you want to read some of the claims, I have copied the link of the article.
