On Thursday, former President Barack Obama was the main guest at a
fundraiser in Silicon Valley. When asked a question about the many
candidates running, he told those present that he couldn't care less
whether they'd like the eventual nominee. They just have to vote for
him/her/it.
"Everybody needs to chill out about the candidates, but gin up about the
prospect of rallying behind whoever emerges from this process," Obama
told the millionaire techies, according to far-left news channel CNN.
"There will be differences" between them, he added, "but I want us to
make sure that we keep in mind that, relative to the ultimate goal,
which is to defeat a president and a party that has ... taken a sharp
turn away from a lot of the core traditions and values and institutional
commitments that built this country," those differences are "relatively
minor."
"The field will narrow and there's going to be one person, and if that
is not your perfect candidate and there are certain aspects of what they
say that you don't agree with and you don't find them completely
inspiring the way you'd like, I don't care," he went on to say. "Because
the choice is so stark and the stakes are so high that you cannot
afford to be ambivalent in this race."
In other words, shut the heck up and vote for whomever the Democratic
Party nominates. You don't have to like him or her, you just have to
vote for him/her.
You've got to give it to Obama: he doesn't make a secret of his
arrogance and party-first mentality. Principles? Yack, who needs those?
Disagreeing with the nominee about "climate change" and "health care"? Who cares? The nominee will have a "D" next to her/his name, and that's the only thing that truly matters.
