It was not too many years ago that Barack Obama was welcomed into the Presidency in messianic fashion. Change was needed, it was proclaimed, and Barack Obama was just the man to make that change. The death of the GOP was being joyously proclaimed, at home and abroad. Tears of joy streamed down the face of Jesse Jackson as “President” Obama became a reality.
In England the Guardian took a poll, just after Obama’s victory, asking the question: “Is the Republican party dead?”
They also editorialized: “Without a clear leader or direction, is this the end of the GOP?” 58 percent responded: Yes, start planning the funeral.
Eight years later the death of the GOP was affirmed as Robert Reich, former secretary of labor under Bill Clinton, posted on his blog: “I’m writing to you today to announce the death of the Republican Party. It is no longer a living, vital, animate organization. It died in 2016. RIP.”
Obama was hailed as the Machiavellian genius who had engineered the death of the rival party.
Recent pieces here at AT proclaimed, first, that Obama was, as many have long believed, the mastermind who guided the Democrats first to victory over Trump, then through the nearly four years of Biden and now down the path of destiny to which they are now committed.
