Obama has demonstrated that it doesn't matter who gets elected.
Supposedly he made this decision because the political calculus said he had to do it to appeal to more moderate voters. The problem with this logic is that the political calculus will always dictate support for special interests. The corporate media manipulates public opinion to make it so.
