Why I can’t get behind Obama

Trilateralist Zbigniew Brzezinski – is his foreign policy advisor
Skull and Bones member John Kerry brought him nationwide prominence at the Democratic convention of 2004.
Skull and Bones member Austan Goolsbee is his economic advisor.
Former Fed chairman and Trilateralist Paul Volcker endorses him.
Michelle Obama is a Chicago Council on Foreign Relations director
The mainstream media has accepted him as a “viable” candidate for the last year+, thus giving him daily coverage and fundraising opportunities.

ETA- the reason I wrote this is because I think that while there is still hope for change, that hope will not come through electing leadership which has already been chosen for us, but rather through each of us as individuals working together to bring about change. So, I personally wouldn’t want to see people get their hopes up about Obama, but would prefer to see them get their hopes up about being able to make a difference in their own and in other people’s lives.
I’m not so cynical as to belief that “there’s no hope” or that it’s pointless to get one’s hopes up about anything. I just personally don’t see the point in getting my hopes up about Obama. And I wrote this post as a place to refer those who keep mentioning him to me.
