Actor Ed Begley Jr.: Obama 'Should Die In His Boots' In Fight Against Climate Change (VIDEO)

There are ways of going about it, but that's not what Obama wants.  In fact, Obama's healthcare legislation's a good example of how he went about NOT getting what the voters put him and Democrats into power to achieve (affordable, quality medical treatment for everyone), but making his supporters believe as you do.  

For example, Obama was completely against mandates.  He criticized Hillary's support of them -- Here's CandidateObama on mandates.

Before the healthcare debate even began, Obama made sure that there'd be no PublicOption, no SinglePayerUniversal healthcare­, no means for Americans to choose a public healthcare system, no means for containing  costs through public healthcare programs.  He took SinglePayer off the table and blocked all efforts to get a PublicOption in the final legislatio­n due to the secret deal he made (and then lied about, and then had to own up to when the memo was leaked).

A caller on CSpan just a few months ago asked RichardWolffe, who was out plugging his latest book written from his special access to the Obama WhiteHouse, if we're ever going to get a PublicOption to keep costs down.

Wolffe makes it clear that Obama and the DLC-contro­lled Democrats never had any intention of going with a PublicOption or expanding public healthcare in any way (although Wolffe's mistaken when he says that Obama never ran on supporting a PublicOption).

Obama campaigned on reregulati­ng businesses and banks. He campaigned on ending tax breaks and subsidies to companies moving their factories and jobs overseas. 

Now? Not so much. 

You get the regulation­s first and then you give them the money. You put a whole healthcare program together BEFORE you get money for healthcare IT that heaven only knows how it can comply with HIPAA. You keep your entire shopping list of needs & wants on the table (SinglePayerUniversal healthcare) BEFORE you concede it away. Anyone who's ever written/negotiated a contract knows this. 

Obama's done everything backwa­rds. What he does only makes sense if he's NOT a populist, NOT a liberal (we knew he wasn't, but Obama's most ardent supporters implored people to believe that "once he gets into the Oval Office, you'll see!"), and is a continuati­on of the same failed policies of transnatio­nal corporatio­ns that've destroyed the middle class. 

What Obama's doing only makes sense if what he wants is NOT what Obama's most ardent followers claims that they want. The only way to get Obama to do the people's bidding, get him to champion WeThePeople and not the Corporatio­ns is for Obama's 'most ardent supporters­' to stop defending him; they work against their own best interests when they do that.
