Exemplifying Inexperience

Almost anyone who knows me understands I am by no means pleased with the Obama Administrations position or remaining 3 ½ years in office [assuming the American people brighten up and vote him out].

After an general review of Mr. Obama’s political campaign and subsequent past six months in the position as Commander in Chief it becomes more an more apparent to me each day that he is truly in over his head.

Obama, a rather young Chicago Politician appears to be confused an out of touch with American principles and what our role is in the world. His constant change of positions and inability to have a clear and direct path for the United States and it’s world plane further demonstrates the clarity he so desperately lacks thus giving him the inability to defend those.

Earlier in the week when Obama was interviewed by a British media outlet, he talked about democracy and the rule of law being universal principles, but on the other hand stated that the U.S. cannot impose its values "on another country with a different history and a different culture." Be it as it may, it clearly shows that Mr. Obama is out of touch with the values and principles America was built on and unable to determine if the American principles out founding fathers established this great country on are relative values or universal principles.

To add insult to injury, Obama is trying to treat U.S.-Muslim relations as a matter of ethnicity. This is evidenced by his claim that "if you actually took the number of Muslim Americans," the U.S. would "be one of the largest Muslim countries in the world." Our culture and country holds on to clear priniciples which our founding father believed and found to be self evident and true. We have a rule of law and the Constitution which involves freedom and liberty. These principles need to be understood and present to the Islamic world. I acknowledge the differences in the ethnicity however this country was founded on the belief that our principles are universally true and they should be upheld and respected around the world.

Because of Obama’s confusion, his Mideast trip I believe will be unable to advance our universal principles such as the rule of law, constitutionalism, and religious liberty. Although I firmly believe that being a career politician is not a requirement to run for office of the Presidency, a clear understanding of these principles undeniably are, for which the absolute retention of democracy rests.
