Speaking at the University of Missouri in Columbia during a 2008 speech, then Senator Obama said, ‚"We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America."
Many believe this fundamental transformation was pursued for the 8 years Obama was in office. Just as an iron curtain once fell across Europe, since 2008, a red curtain fell across the US Constitution.
What are the origins of this program to transform the nation? My argument will be that the roots of Obama's politics are to be found in the uni-party politics of Chicago. It has been the aim of the national Democratic Party to use Chicago as a model, and then impose that political model on the United States.
