Is this History repeating itself or what???
Jimmy Carter and Barack Obama have several similarities that parallel!!!
Let's lay out what we know President Carter faced as he came into his Presidency and thru-out:
1- Carter's presidency followed an embarrassing Republican tenure with Gerald Ford completing the impeached Richard Nixion's term...
2 - Carter also ran on change and being a Washington outsider...
3 - Carter was known as the smiling president (a nice southern governor with strong southern valves.)...
4 - Carter's term followed a very long hated war half-way around the world...
5 - Carter was faced with a problem with the Iran Hostage Crisis...
6 - Carter had to deal with fuel crisis and fluxuating prices...
7 - Carter had to deal with the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan destablizing the region...
I believe that most American view Charter's Presidency a failure. Ronald Regan ran against him in 1981, winning with ease and locking down the presidency for the republicans for the next twelve years... Changer and the outsider combined to equal failure...
Now let's look at Obama and his potential presidency...
1 - Obama is running as an agent of change and Washington outsider just like Carter...
2 - Obama is following the very Unpopular Presidency of George Bush because of a costly war and poor economy...
3 - Obama will inherit a very poor relationship with Iran and for that matter, around the world...
4 - Obama will also have to deal with High Fuel cost and price fluxuations that effect all American citizens... Like Carter he could be blamed for all these problem...
5 - Obama will also inherit a very unpopular long war in Iraq and Afghanistan... There we see Afghanistan again...
6 - Obama is known as the gentleman or nice guy...
7 - Obama will have to overcome America's falling dollar and very high deficits brought on due poor oversight by the Bush White House and this costly war...
As you can see, these are turbulent times that must be navigated with skillful, time tested, tactics that protect us from the bad guys, improve the economy and create new jobs ... I believe Obama is a great orator but does Obama have the experience needed to navigate this ship through this fearful mine field???
Should we roll the dice?
Cross our fingers??
And take our chances???
I don't think so...
I believe Hillary has the experience, the skills, and the doggedness to "Clean-up" Bush's mess!!! It took a Clinton to clean-up the first Bush's mess and bring the economic back in the back and restore our reputation around the world... Let's let Hillary do "Be the Clean-up Woman!!!"
By the way, Carter was a Naval Officer...
Hummmmmm!!!
Now you know me, I like to keep it interesting... There is a way of accomplishing both...
Let's really make "His-Story and Her-Story... Now all together boys and girls, "HeIrS-Story!" And you know what that means... :)
Here we go again,
"The Dream Ticket!"
If Obama calls himself a unifier but can't start in his own house... Then Obama is as a sounding brass or a tinkling cymbal... And you know what I mean...
"The Carter - Obama Parallel!"

Obama: Pass or No Pass on Drugs!!! John McCain will not give him a Pass!!!
Today the “buzz” is the cat-fight fall-outs from the Grammy’s.
Usually the same old bull but this time the topics are quite interesting.
1 - The real “Queen of Soul” is pissed at “Ms B” (you know who I am talking about, stop playing.) for calling “Ms T” the “Queen.”
I must come to “Ms B’s” defense. She called “Ms T” the “Queen…” Which I took to mean the “Queen of Rock and Roll!”
Aretha, the Queen of Soul, Just wants a little “Respect?”
Where is “Ms O” when you need her???
2 - “Ms C” has got her panties in a wedgie over “The Black Horse and the Cherry Tree” girl receiving a grammy on the steps of “Rehab!”
“No! No! No! - Yes! Yes! Yes!”
Tell me it isn’t so???
I am afraid it is… :}
But (there goes that “Big But” in the room again…)
“Ms C,” who I love dearly, is also a former drug user and Grammy winner…
So I really don’t get it…
I guess she did not realize that the potential “Leader of the Free World” is also a “Grammy” winner and former drug user…
Come on “Ms C”, get a grip!!!
“Don’t be a hater!!!”

You and “Ms Cherry tree,” are entertainers. Society expects you all to be in a daze most of the time. Look at the other “Ms B” (you know who I am talking about, in the news every day for going to the psych ward to be evaluated. Stop playing.) she sells more papers in a daze than you sell clean… Go Figure…
So I guess the phrase: “Join the Club,” is in order here…
But on a more serious note (as if I wasn’t serious before!)
did Obama get a temporay pass on the drug question???
http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D8T1IPAG0&show_article=1&catnum=0
I have reason for asking this question. “Ms B” and “Ms Cherry Tree” are not going to be making decisions that will effect the safety, health, and welfare of the Nation, maybe even the Planet. The decisions they make really only effect a very small amount of the populus…
If Obama wins the nomination, I don’t believe the Republicans are going to give him a pass. They, like Hillary, don’t have much ammo on him so what is the most obvious “POA.” (Come on, you know what I mean, “Point of Attack” (POA)… S.T.O.P. P.L.A.Y.I.N.G…)
As a prior military personnel, it is practically impossible to enter the military if you admit to have “used” drugs. “Used” is the optimum word here. If it is determined that you were a drug user then you can be “barred” from “high level security” jobs (Like President of the United States of America). http://usmilitary.about.com/od/joiningthemilitary/a/enlstandards2.htm
Hillary’s camp has treated Obama very gingerly on the subject. I don’t think a war hero is going to let him off that easily… They might, but I doubt it… Do you remember what John McCain said when asked about “woodstock,” something to the effect, “I am sure it was a pharmaceutical event that I could not attend because I was all tied up in a hotel far away.”
So this could be problematic for the Dems if John McCain takes it there…
And God forbid John McCain chooses Hukkabee as a running mate…
I can here the sermon now…
“What do we tell our children, “you can grow up to be just like the President… The shame of it all…”" As Minister Republican potential VP would say as he passed the offerring plate…
