Obama Would not be President of the United States if the media was not bias in his favor. The media did everything in its power to glorify Barrack Obama and make him a celebrity before and during the election. No one was concerned with his political record or lack there of. The world was so intrigued by the United states having a black president, that population would have voted OJ Simpson in, soley on the color of his skin.

Not that this is not an impressive feat, nor is it an amazing sign of the incredible changes our nation has made in past centuries. I am all for anti-racism and equal opportunity for everyone. What I am not for, is blindingly following a leader who has zero credibility and a zero track record. The media portrayed him as a god. They downplayed anything that may have harmed his reputation.

Any excuse for why Obama was close friends with a self-proclaimed racist or terrorist was good enough for the media. His slogan of change was everywhere, and there was never any definition as to what kind of change? And no one seemed to ask, or care. All anyone cared about was that this country, in their minds, was going down the tubes, because the man they voted in was not good enough anymore.

The reason people listen to Barrack Obama is the same reason that people listen to celebrities. It is not the words that are coming out of these peoples mouths that people pay attention to, it is the way they are portrayed on the TV set. Obama is making change to our country however, but it is not necessarily the change that anyone wants or expected.

He is slowly turning the country into a socialist republic and trying to make it a world equal, instead of a world power as it once was. But this can be all blamed on the media, because his popularity in the media does not fain to this day. The media will not criticize anything he does, regardless of how rediculous it is. Once on his side always on his side. It is sad and unfortunate that the media has come to this, but it is a sign of things to come in my opinion.

The liberals have control of the media and increasing control of business in America. Soon there will be universal health care along with universal everything else. Pretty soon there will be one political party. Then we will be the ones in the streets, protesting the government, to the rest of the world's disgust and not the Iranians or the Chinese at Tianamen Square. Perhaps that is a little far fetched, but if Obama uses his grasp on the media as he did to get in power, we are all in store for an interesting ride.
