It wasn’t that long ago we were hearing about the ‘billion dollar‘ campaign that Obama was going to have this time around. Now, the Obama campaign is not even looking competitive.
In an attempt to supplement the less than stellar campaign donor performance, the campaign has turned to capitalism via merchandising. With every issue lodged against Oba
ma over his record, a campaign fundraising letter is generated with a desperate tone of having to ‘fight back’ the bogeyman that wants to . . .
- send children brought into the country by their illegal alien parents back to Mexico.
- The country is not fair to them.
- And Republicans want to take away the health care that he wants to give them.
- And Republicans want to take away college Pell Grants that he wants to give them, so families can no longer afford a college education for their children.
- And Republicans want to take away the Social Security and Medicare of millions of Hispanic seniors citizens who depend on it.

The Obama campaign says . . .
Over the last four years, President Obama has been focused on restoring basic economic security to Hispanics and all Americans.
I don’t believe even they believe that now. They are living the reality that more Hispanics are unemployed now than when President Obama began. And all the campaign can say is that he “has been focused” on bla bla bla. They know (don’t they?) that Obama concentrated first on getting Obamacare enacted. Not the economy. In fact, he said that fixing the economy depends on first getting health care ‘under control.’ That was his justification for pushing government controlled health care first, over economic recovery. It’s the hype, the lies, that isn’t flying any more. Hispanics in America hear the same words and see the same poor, and worsening, results.
And to show his compassion for poor, out-of-work Hispanics, he is asking them to chip in $5 for a stinking button. If they had their job, the Obama campaign wouldn’t be looking for money from people who can least afford to give it. Who’s helping who here?
