1991 Obama: Becoming Donald Trump is the American Dream

As a Harvard Law Student, Barack Obama Said Becoming Donald Trump Was The American Dream

In 1991, Obama, a 29-year-old soon-to-be Harvard Law School grad, wrote a paper with a friend, Robert Fisher, called “Race and Rights Rhetoric.” Obama summed up the average American’s mindset with the following sentence: "I may not be Donald Trump now, but just you wait; if I don't make it, my children will."

=D> =D> =D>

Another example of NP using parts of a quote completely out of context and changing their meaning entirely.
(Or in this case linking an article that does the work for him.)

One might think he’s some sort of genius right wing baiter.

However his other posts have proven he’s a sad angry little man, and his tactics are easily refuted.

So he’s no genius... is this case he’s just parroting bullshit messages from other Right Wing mouthpieces.

Next NP post includes...
*Personal insult with no evidence.
*A claim denying that the quote is real and denying context matters.
*Additional misquotes/mischaracterizations of my past posts, using bad logic, and claims that I haven’t refuted said claims.

The invocation of Donald Trump’s name was not, as implied by headlines, used to provide an example of the “American Dream,” but rather an example of the “unfounded optimism of the average American”

The American Dream is a national ethos of the United States, the set of ideals (democracy, rights, liberty, opportunity and equality) in which freedom includes the opportunity for prosperity and success, as well as an upward social mobility for the family and children, achieved through hard work in a society with few barriers.

You choose to ignore the word ‘unfounded’ thereby changing the meaning of the quote.

We know you’re an ass... but you continue to demonstrate you’re also an idiot.

You somehow think you’re ‘triggering’ me.
I’m pretty hard to ‘trigger’ virtually... I let it go as soon as I type it.

I’m from Boston, if you wanna trigger me cut me off in traffic, or worse drive slow.

All you comments do is...
1) Prove your idiocy.
2) Make me feel sad about the long term prospects of human race.

You’re personally attacking the former President of this great nation... a nation you purport to love.

I’m not attacking any president.

I’m attacking you.

There’s a difference.

... and it’s not really a personal attack if i’m just pointing out your obvious biases and flaws.

I got the truth on my side baby.

Wouldn't it be more fun to debate a troll who wasn't so bad at it Jimbo? I guess that's what happens when membership gets this low, even the trolls are pretty impotent.

I contributed to the recipe thread... but then that degenerated into something else.

Obviously i’m Bored and have too much time on my hands.
It’s been raining a lot and so i’m Not spending as much time doing yard work as I otherwise would this time of year.

I mean he thinks he’s “triggering’ me... whatever that is.
It’s not like I’m actually getting annoyed IRL... I just can’t believe the stooped shit he’s spewing.

I’ll probably get tired of this dumb ass time wasting ‘game’ and disappear again.

Like I said before, it’s too bad because there used to be more intelligent ‘banter’... even if we did debate and bait and insult, it at least had more substance.
