Obama Does Not Believe In Jefferson

We all agree that politics have regressed in the last one hundred years, and perhaps it all began one terrible day when the leaders lost the skill to speak about economic matters — that is to say real matters — and became skillful in “social problems.” Do social problems exist in reality? Perhaps not, and judging by the messages on the banners that fly in the rallies, we are always buried in money problems; that is to say, in real problems.

The slogans don’t lie, “more free money, more cheap money, more state money.” However, nearly all leaders try to respond to public demands with consoling, while bleak, socialist language.

Sooner or later, all leaders learn the perfect language of the white lie, all don the socialist cloak in order to inject into their image this air of uncertain grandeur, this tone of public sermon that soothes the complaints and relieves the conscience. Barack is a good example of this; few North American presidents have obtained the popularity figures achieved by the current president. In his impeccable promotion campaign for the presidency, he took a Tibetan bath in socialist waters and a miracle happened: In a matter of days, he became a candidate with options, the unstoppable celebrity not only of the local voter but also of the grand populist fanaticism that shakes the rattle of the entire world.

But the people have learned, hopefully Obama as well, that in order to win an electoral fight, perhaps one needs to become a celebrity, but in order to govern a country, there is nothing more effective than to simply be a leader. The propaganda perfection demonstrated by Obama in the campaign contrasts with the premature disappointment of the United States’ citizens. This is because Barack Obama does not believe in Jefferson; because Obama committed social democrat demagoguery and ended up crucified between good and bad thieves.

Jefferson said, “I am for a government rigorously frugal and simple,” but Obama’s sermon has gone in the opposite direction. For the current North American president, waste is not sinful if it goes to the hungry. While Obama continues to believe in the truth of altruistic erudite experts who live between prediction and popular preaching, Jefferson said, “I have never been able to conceive how any rational being could propose happiness to himself from the exercise of power over others.”

The United States is a country that was founded on models of legal rectitude, and those models evolved into two traditional right-wing parties. We all know that the right is not synonymous with rectitude, but we also know that in the land of Jefferson, the social democratic seeds do not stick because Jefferson, the founder of the immense country, once said, “If we can prevent the government from wasting the work of the people under the pretext of caring for them, they will be happy.” What is visible does not require glasses; the North American people are not happy and that has been clearly expressed in the ballot boxes.

Although at the moment North American society seems worked up, it is always possible to invoke the venerable ideals of the founders. Jefferson did not leave eternal recipes for the happiness of his people, but he did leave a simple thought. And when the United States falls into the obscurantism of complicated ideologies of martyrs … There is nothing healthier than returning to Jefferson.

The author of the North American Declaration of Independence laid the cornerstone of an enviable country, and did so without fanfare, talking with a mockingbird that was always perched on his shoulders. A mockingbird named Dick.
