OverviewThe election of President Barrack Hussein Obama was one of the greatest movements in history for the United States of America. This election brought a symbol of change to America, and with that change came hope. However, were Americans blinded by their own hopes for this change? The Obama campaign was so focused on “change” because that's what people wanted to hear. Many people argue that Barrack Obama is a great president, that he helps the poor and that he has had a huge impact on black communities. Yet, it seems there are more people who see beyond the spectacle presented by Obama. Yes, there has been change, but in what forms has it come? When you look at this president's political and non-political agenda, a new light shines. Maybe change isn't about being a black president; maybe it's about changing the direction of the US government. The following paper will touch on the controversies over Obama's qualifications for the office. From here, I will bring to the surface many of Obama's character flaws, such as dishonesty and hypocrisy. This dishonesty is evident in all of Obama's terms. He played a significant role through Obama's manipulation tactics to mislead America. Then, I will show how Obama is using this manipulation to further his socialist/anti-colonialist goals for the United States of America. Introduction My name is Asha. I am 6 years old.
