They've tried fake cowboys, dancing bears, third-rate actors, now they want to try a 'green' or 'red' mulatto...
I wish them good luck.
It was predictable enough, but of the sad kind of predictability after all of Obama's 'mistakes', 'parting with (wrong) friends' and befuddled TV declaration of Muslim faith.
I think, however, that old Bush was the only one in recent times to go for a third term in a row for the same party...it was just predictable it'd end like this.
For those who think it is a brand new trick, it's not.
In Italy around 1994-96 there was already such sleight of hand.
MISS ITALIA is the biggest nationwide beauty pageant, first run under Fascism to celebrate 'Italian beauty' (whatever that is, it's supposedly in the 'white' color zone ).
Now there had been severe, ongoing political crisis since 1992 in Italy, that had led to the collapse of a regime having lasted since 1945. A new copy of the same regime would soon be reinstated, but that's another matter.
A new political party (Lega Nord) at that time pushed what servile journalists referred to as 'racist and secessionist' agenda.
Now as an insult to that party, its agenda and its (at the time) raising consensus, a mulatto woman was 'politically propelled' to win the beauty contest, with servile journalists dancing and celebrating throughout the tiresome weeks in which the contest had become a political battle field.
I still remember plenty of first page, AAA+ newspaper or prime time TV tirades by intellectuals and other regime hirelings celebrating the upcoming defeat and ridicule of 'racist secessionists' and -such was usually the punchline- what better way to celebrate than the election of a 'black' top beauty queen?
Much like Obama, Denny Mendez was not 'black' but a dominican mulatto misnamed 'black' for political reasons, given that she was 'italian' only because her mother had married an Italian citizen who wasn't her biological father.
Political crisis had thus found a sublimation in that farce.
Now some may object that a beauty contest, however important, in some minor country has nothing in common with the election of a president of a major country...think again.
It's just the 'billion dollars' Hollywood copy of some minor foreign production...not the first time it happens, not the last.
Michael Jackson was sentenced to pay hefty compensation for having stolen a song from Italian songwriter Albano Carrisi...now how many people outside Italy know him?
'Big' with Tom Hanks was the carbon copy of an earlier Italian low-profile movie ('da grande'), and so forth.
I am sure the Denny Mendez lesson didn't escape American AAA+ analysts...[/quote]
