Barack Obama: How the mighty are fallen
By Andrea Widburg
Once upon a time, Barack Obama had the world at his feet. Tens of thousands of adoring people would come to see him, and often women would react to him as teens once reacted to Frank Sinatra, by fainting away in his presence. Now, though, not so much. Obama is stumping for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, and the magic is gone. Nowadays, Obama is drawing crowds that only number in the tens and maybe the hundreds.
Before Trump and his mega (and MAGA) rallies, there was Barack Obama circa 2008. Back then, he was a rock star. In June 2008, when Obama knew that he was going to be the Democrats’ presidential candidate, he famously announced that his nomination “was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow, and our planet began to heal.â€
At a Portland rally in July, approximately 75,000 people came to see Obama speak. Obama got an even better reception that same July when around 200,000 people turned up in Berlin to hear Obama speak. By October 18, 2008 (almost exactly 12 years ago), the St. Louis, Missouri, police estimated that 100,000 people attended an Obama rally.
No wonder Obama and his team began to take him very seriously. At the Democrat National Convention in August 2008, Obama stood on a set with impressive Greek columns that were obviously intended to suggest the dawning of a New Age.

This fool campaigning for a man that is hunkered down in his bunker. How pathetic!
The groundhog does come out, we get four to eight more years of Obama winter. Ah yes, by all means, let's have some.
Dear God, stand by the American people.
