I know you've been on Wilson's case for a while now but trying to tie what is going on today to Woodrow Wilson is some stretch.
Well I don't have enough energy to really put together something that will really inform you but if you would get to reading about Wilson and others in our past, maybe you will understand why I am trumpeting these same things between Obama and wilson.
Let's see for the uninformed;
Wilson did in fact believe that the Constitution was an outdated document which should be replaced by a more efficient system of government - he wanted absolute power, sounds like Obama to me.
He was not just a professor at Princeton but was another who taught constitutional law and knew exactly what it will take to dismantle it
He moved right up the ranks from being president of Princeton to president of the United States very quickly just like Obama and it seemed to be the same way too
He was a devote racist, not unlike many who surround our present day president but moving to the opposite end of the race issue - ever hear of black nationalism?
He used the same style of activism as we see today, through first the AFL and rail road unions to what is considered Wilson's black shirts American Protective League and the four minute men. Same confrontational methods of shutting down opposing points of view and the same trashing of people who for the most part are scared. By the way Obama is using ACORN and SEIU with the support of many left wing proponents.
He used the press and other means to suppress opposition before and during the war - some of it was clearly illegal and one of the reasons of the creation and rise of the ACLU. It is just like today where the 'traditional press' ignores the real news and reports things as opinion.
Wilson gave us the espionage and sedition acts, which also open the door for a large number of abuses. Those two seemed to be patriot act on steroids undocumented deportations, jailing without writs and so on....
Wilson also gave us a little part of the government called Committee on Public Information - the official propaganda arm of the administration. They controlled the press and other aspects of communication, just like the white house press office using only certain channels and even refusing to allow access to some media outlets and reporters
Now see here is the thing, you may think I am reaching but if you examine the happenings of today with what went on between 1917 and 1919, you can see a rise in violence, a rise in organized opposition and a real hard suppression of these individuals and groups and and the same start we have now. There were a lot of killings and beatings that were instigated by the Wilsonites, much of it was accepted by the public because of the frenzy that was created by Wilson through the different groups. Much of what you see today in technique and execution can be traced back to that time period of our history.
See I am watching the news ignore the beatings, make a big deal about what is going on at these town halls and seeing 1917-1919 all over again with the growing spin on issues to make it look like the common people are too stupid to understand what we need.
