With the ever onslaught of commemorative coins flooding our airwaves as of late, almost on a daily basis, with reguards to the "messiah" President , some rather lofty claims accompany the sales pitch ; "See Obama in all his majestic glory, next to the founding fathers. On the front of this brilliant coin see a full color painting of Obama, and on the reverse see Obama in all his glory next to a full color painting of the statue of liberty". "If you act now you will recieve the founding fathers set along with the briliant Obama coin".
Seeing Obama within the same context as our founding fathers raises an important question for me. Would George Washington , a patriot , a family man , a military genius , and an incorruptable servant to a noble cause associate with the likes of Obama? Many relevent questions about Obama have been raised during this election cycle. Frankly it is this pundits belief that Obama has much more explaining to do. The American people deserve an eye-to-eye discussion about Obamas past and present dealings. After all we are about to turn over our economy, and the global economy to this man. Alot is at stake.
In conclussion , I don't believe our founding fathers would have associated with the likes of Mr. Obama , simply because his level of patriotism is in question.
