Obama is our first President of a traditionally underrepresented ethnic group. His charisma and cross-racial appeal made his candidacy ring a clarion bell for hope. It was a genuine opportunity to "forget what is behind" and move forward to Martin Luther King's "Dream".
However, Obama's policies and his true identity are killing that dream. From unprecedented over spending on a "stimulus", to the takeover of car companies; from the nomination of a racist, radical pro-abortion Supreme Court Justice to the attempt to take over our nation's medical care; this President has squandered the hope that elected him.
Tom Sowell is right in his most recent column. Sowell's use of the word "disaster" is an understatement. http://townhall.com/columnists/ThomasSowell/2009/07/28/disaster_in_the_making
