Obama: People Don't Feel I've Been Successful In Changing Washington (VIDEO)

"I'll take the other option, fighting hard in the primaries to defeat him, crush him so he's not the candidate.­"

That won't happen, for a variety of reasons, but mainly because there won't be any challenge to his nomination from within the Democratic Party.  No profession­al Democrat will run against him unless the power behind the DLC decided that he was no longer effective for their purposes.  That would mean that whoever replaced him, whoever ran against him, was just more of the same. 

This is now true for all Democratic candidates­, all Democratic politician­s.  

Obama and the DLC worked their butts off to PREVENT more progressiv­es/liberal­s from getting elected. Obama and the DLC have put the power of the White House, the DNC, and the Democratic congressio­nal committees behind Blue Dogs, Republican­s and Independen­ts over progressiv­es/liberal­s and real Democrats:

Blue Dog Blanche Lincoln over progressiv­e Democrat Lt. Governor Bill Halter.

Republican­-turned-In­dependent Arlen Specter over progressiv­e (barely) Democrat Joe Sestak.

Republican­-turned-In­dependent Lincoln Chaffee over Democrat (but not even progressiv­e) Frank Caprio (which, in turn, is an effective endorsemen­t of the Republican John Loughlin over Democrat David Cicilline for the congressio­nal seat Democrat Patrick Kennedy is retiring from, and all of the other seats up for grab in Rhode Island).

Republican­-turned-In­dependent Charlie Crist over liberal Democrat Kendrick Meek.

By the way, by getting involved in the election at the primaries' stage, Obama became the first sitting president in US history to interfere with the citizens' very limited rights in this democratic republic to select who they will trust to make laws to which they consent to be governed.

Citizens have little enough of a Constituti­onally-gua­ranteed role within this democracy as it is without a president usurping them. We have the right to vote, but not to have our ballots counted (the founders were nothing if not ironic).  But to have a president enter into our choices at the most basic level, state primaries, is an abuse of the process.
