Ever since Obama came into power, the Republican Party has labeled him as a community organizer who barely ran anything before he became President.
Strangely enough, nothing can be further from the truth, thanks to his efforts in being very clear about his vision for the nation.
Unlike other politicians who tend to be ambiguous about their policies which keeps people guessing, he has reiterated that he wishes to “remake” the country. While that should demystify his plan for the country for even the simplest individual, one can only appreciate how he has run the ‘Obama for America’ – a political war machine, if you will.
It is touted by experts to be the most effective political army in our lifetime, and just last week was transformed into a 501(c)4 organization, now known as Organizing for Action (OFA).
In fact, it must be said that this organization, which uses a combination of high tech and school political strategies, is now key to swaying public opinion, thanks to two successful campaigns, and is now considered to be greater in importance than the Democratic National Committee. This success also points to the fact that he has changed American politics, almost single-handedly.
Obama, after winning his second term as a President knows that he can continue to win by not only taking advantage of liberal media bias, his community grassroots organizing methods and by collecting data as well as using the latest technology – all geared towards making the Republican Party look as if they are not only extremist by nature but also out of touch with people’s needs.
And he isn’t wrong about winning, thanks to his highly organized political setup as well as the ability to communicate with voters effectively. An aspect that the Republican Party will have to emulate if they have to give the Democratic Party a run for its money in four years time.
