That the president has recently brought case after case, citing unfair trade practices especially with China, to the WTO, basically taking on the mighty Plutocrats who’ve taken over our beloved nation, is why I think Obama is the ONLY president who has our best interest in mind in these times of economic distaster at the hands of the Plutocrats. See referenced article from BUSINESS INSIDER:

While I agree with almost all of the comments thus far, what scares me the most is that Obama does nothing that is not calculated. I do not believe he was unaware of a hot mic, nor that he chose that particular time to discuss this need for “space” until after the election – where he could be and was overheard. I am not a big believer in conspiracy theory, but it has been shown time and again that Obama’s choice of statements to release and the medium of release are never innocent. Look behind the statement (the unspoken promise to gamble away the missile defense are bad enough), he searches for a new world order where elitists are in charge.

What do all these commentors find so difficult to comprehend The comments made are so typical and expected. The anti United States rhetoric sickens me and that the public was so duped during the 2008 election.

He is conspiring with our enemies to overthrow America from within.

We had better wake up and vote them all out; if we can. I am afraid that it is all rigged and someone else decides who will win before we even vote! Our President, is a Marxist, and anyone that votes for him is a communist; and wants a Dictator not a President!! The Ole Guy Paul

With 49 % of Americans dependent on the federal government for all, or part, of their income (and this doesn’t include social security recipients), Obama’s re-election is guaranteed. Welcome to socialist America.

the man is a traitor and enemy of the country, he should be tried as such

Here we go again. The Anointed Shill-in-Chief is spewing out words but making no attempt to define those words. Even after three plus years, America still has NO idea what hope and change or transparency or character or integrity really mean.
Apparently, Obummer has appointed himself the world’s guardian of definitions. It’s not unexpected, but it does point out the fact that no mortal’s ego is up to the task of defining words at will. Winston Churchill had quite a vocabulary. Obummer, on the other hand, has questionable credentials, a China-sized ego, he’s in love with himself and we’re expected to be in awe of this Chicago-style, wannabe thug.
No way, hoser. Until we get clear definitions, realistic policies, would-be criminals who are forced to obey the laws and at least a hint that America’s destruction aren’t in this septic tank recipe for disaster, this administration is at best a band of criminals on state-sanctioned drugs. Orwell’s 1984 is all I need to understand the W H pretender.

Obama Replacing U.S. Military With His Own National Security Force

Obama Administration will eventually destabilize the all-volunteer military force and open the way for Obama to recruit his new National Security Force, which is outlined in the flawed Obama Health Care Bill; that provision is in the legislation that was forced upon the American people by a Lame Duck, Democrat Controlled, Congress just before the last Christmas recess hat congress would have in 2010.

Semper Fi

The most you can say about the comment made by President Obama is that it is ambiguous. But hey, if that doesn’t float your extreme partisanship boat , make something up.

Obummer has thrown away every penny of our economy that he could get his hands on.
He has placed his trashy comrads into all high-level Czar and other positions.
He is certainly a Muslim sympathizer if not one himself, as all his background indicates.
He is not American, in heart if he is by some other analysis.
He and his wife CRAVE luxury that someone else funds.
He proves regularly that he has no respect for the military or for our defense.
His appeal is only to those who have no vested interest in America.
He is destroying our relationship with former allies.
Every demolished nation today, occurred through an evil leader: Cuba, Venezuela,
Iran, North Korea, Russia, China…exactly our plight today.

Narcissistic. Orchestrating America to its end.

The road to dictatorship has been well planned by obama. He has paved the way by executive orders, promises to foreign powers, upheld breaking the law by the DOJ, and undercut the basic liberty Americans have fought so hard for. Now he blatently makes a comment of when he wins the election he will have more flexibility to handle the nuclear weapons to Russia’s advantage.

America needs to wake up. We have complacently gone along with federal government intrusion in our lives via the progressive movement. We delighted in the welfare programs when initiated to the point that they became a lifestyle for many. We delighted in the EPA programs to regulate our environment at the expense of manufacturing and energy issues. We allowed the erosion of our freedoms through the Patriot Act out of fear and the federal government rewarded us by imposing new rules under NDAA authorizing the arrest of American citizens considered a threat, then HR347 and S1794 restricting our right to protest.

We need to do one of two things; either we roll over and allow ourselves to be a dictatorship with obama the supreme leader, or we vote the man out of office. We need to demand that the representatives and senators we elect to represent us do so in accordance with the Constitution or pay the price of either recall or being voted out of office. WE THE PEOPLE need to expect accountability from all those we pay to perform their duties under the office they hold.

The commie rat fink is looking to sell out the country

It sounds to me like he could be counting on/depending on voter fraud to keep him in office……………….??

WE NEED TO FLEX HIS NASTY ARSE OUT OF OUR COUNTRY!!!

GiveMeLiberty – That was my question too. How many other things has this man quietly said ‘off mike’ to other leaders that will hurt America? How many??? Sorry, I do not believe the good of America is really in his heart.

This is just a peek into what will happen if this dictator wanna-be is re-elected. Knowing he has only 4 more years to complete his mission of destruction, there will be nothing standing in his way. Congress has shown it’s unwillingness to contain him. Look how long it has taken just to get Obamacare to the SCOTUS. He has trampled the constitution over the last 3-1/2 years with no one stopping him….I can’t imagine what he can do in 4 more.

No matter how you try to spin what he was caught saying,it was bad!! The russian p[resident consoling Obama with his little hand pats was disgusting! Obama made the statement he surely was going to be re-elected! How interesting! With our communist media anything is a possibility! Just look at the idiots that are still under his hypnotic spell…A shame indeed! The Republican establishment and the DEemocrat”Progressives” are one of the same! They just change seats every few years.Clintons,Bushes,Carter,Obama,Geitner,Kissinger,etc..etc..are the NEw world Order freaks! Just watch my little sheeple Americans that if obama wins another term you will also pay the price…The republican candidates are only a short time buffer to slow down the transformation…But as of now thats all the hope we have …Pull your heads out of you know where and get rid of this George soros puppet and save your children…A third party has to happen before the 2016 elections…Enough is enough…..Otherwise revolution will become the only other alternative..

I figure that oblama will disarm Israel because that is EXACTLY what Russia wants.

Screw you obummer.

I not shocked at this candid camera moment. Just think how many other little deals he’s made at OUR expense. I shudder at the thought of what else he’s given away. It seems to me he’s just giving away the farm and I’m concerned as to why, what’s his motive? Without question he’s dismantling OUR military right in front of us as well. I’m all about a smaller military, stationed HERE in North America but it CANNOT be hollow. We KNOW one thing, his motive is not to SAVE money…that’s laughable.

The tone wasnt”if he were re-elected,it was when I am re-elected.”
Did anyone else catch that?
So the purveyor of purchasing power in the arena of world politcs,is vowing to come to the recue of another failed politician?
“Gee Wally,does it do any good to attempt to save a drowning victim,if I get drowned by my own debt?”
“No Beaver,that would make you both dead in the water.”
There you have it folks…..we are drowning in debt to save the lives of the others,hoping that our sacrifice is not in vain.
But wouldnt it be to our advantage to be strong before we jump in to the deep water to rescue the poor?
Nope.
Just jump in the water and die with them,that is a sound strategy.
Cheers!

If this is not irrefutable evidence as to the mindset and objectives strived for by Obummer then what is? To what lengths will he be restricted from taking if boldly re-elected for a second term? And in so doing what will remain of our country once all is said and done? Have personal deals such as this never been made before? I’m quite sure there has been – many no doubt. But the ideological mindset of a sociopathic lier bares more to fear than any of the rest. Between the backing that he has amassed via the untold number of devoted “useful idiots” as well as his close, very close ideological partners in “domestic terrorism” what more could or should be expected if he is electorally granted an additional four years in the oval office? If you haven’t been able to figure it out then I strongly suggest you check with Putin, he’ll let you know.

Obama: “This is my last election. After my election I have more flexibility.”

So many interesting ways to parse meaning out of that sentence.

Meanwhile the OP writes

Some conservatives have expressed concerns that a second term for President Barack Obama means a chance for the President, who will no longer face reelection, to force radical, unpopular “change” upon the United States.

I rather think it should read “…a chance to CONTINUE to force radical, unpopular change…”
