Obama will win re-election no matter how much he is hated by the right for being black and by the left for being a tool of Wall Street.
Why?
Because Barack Obama supports Wall Streets winning margin machine, the Jim Crow anti democracy War on Drugs. That is all that really matters. The War on Drugs is the status quo litmus test for conformity. It targets the disaffected and Americans who would question authority, people who indicate a willingness to question existing laws and dogma by violating the drug laws, and mass disenfranchises them electorally.

At the same time it uses their bodies, stripped of their franchise, to fill prisons in rural white conservative legislative districts where they are counted for apportionment providing "safe" conservative white districts. Pluralistic urban districts lose the increased electoral power of these Americans. While those left, out of fear, complacency or capitulation are more likely to vote the status quo. If they vote having lived in cities under anti democratic siege and suffering the pummeling of economic warfare for generations on end.
Wall Street does not own America's electoral system. Wall Street controls this winning margin of several millions potential votes that are locked out of the electorate by the War on Drugs. Most of seven million currently under judicial control plus countless millions ore disenfranchised and/or disaffected over the past forty years of the Drug War by being criminalized. Or the disaffected family victims of those criminalized.
Barack Obama, last year, gave America its second highest ever prison population. At the same time maintaining Wall Streets winning electoral margin.
(Wall Street also makes a tidy profit from the $100 billion a year prison industrial complex.)
wow, what a spin
so you are saying that conservatives are more likely to end the war on drugs . . . .
I don't find that suggestion credible.
I have no idea where you got that from.
Please learn to read for comprehension. Then read what 'I' write. I don't like responding to the misrepresentations people deduce from what I write.
For myriad reasons, that I have not enumerated in this post, I don't believe there will ever be an end to the War on Drugs.
It should be scaled back, not ended. Meth, by no means, should be legal. Opiates should also be illegal.
the end of the war on drugs is, at some point, inevitable.
I've been posting about the war on drugs on this forum for weeks, and very few others have shown an interest. Google N900SA.
I don't do drugs.
I've been advocating either we enforce the law, or we change the law.

no one has shown up outside the copshops with their stash demanding processing yet.
so
why should I google again?
Re Can't You See? I used to take drugs. I know they can mess up a person's life.
The current situation is extremely harmful to our entire society. It harms the poorest people disproportionately. It undermines the credibility and integrity of our political system.

Although I do agree with some of your reasoning about why Obamarx is "hated"- you Liberals just thrive on using race at every turn- I must agree with you on some of your logic about why drugs are illegal. Here are my views:
"Recreational" drugs will never be legalized because there are far too many people on BOTH sides of the law that benefit to no end from it financially.The drug cartels, down to street dealers. Police, Lawyers, judges, prison officials, prisopersonnelle, Politicians who are paid off and/or Politicians who claim to "protecting our values and us from ourselves. Same with all Law Enforcement, both crooked and straight. Plus there are far too many religious zealots in this country who feel that EVERYONE should have to abide by THEIR self-imposed restrictions. I think it is mostly envy from them. It is easier to live by their own senseless limitations if they do not have to see others enjoying themselves. It is the same with prostitution and gambling.
Some will say, "But marijuana is okay." Marijuana will never be legalized because it is to easy for consumers to grow their own and the Liberal Socialist government sees no income potential through taxation. And the Conservatives see it as too much enlightenment for the people removing their fear of "god." It would be a major loss of mind and body control, through fear, over too many people. That and the above mentioned reasons of others whose financial futures depend on "crime" on both sides of the law.
Ronald Earnest Paul has opposed the war on drugs from the beginning. The Bush-Clinton Mob are the American drug lords. Google Mena Arkansas and cocaine.
The evil troll king luaPnoR is a predator and an opportunist who opposes the War on Drugs only because he knows that he can connive some people to vote for him by doing so.
