OK, just bear with me on this.
What if Obama was setup as a "plant"? No, I don't mean the obvious, i.e. from Middle Eastern Arab or Muslim interests.
But rather, as an "inside job" as a concerted effort done by the Intelligence community, the "Elites" (Illuminati with their puppets) and even a few Republicans as a convincing scheme to make Obongo apeppear to come close to winning the election, even gaining in popularity via the bullshit polls to the point of scaring the U.S. and World financials to make it look even more convincing.

I can see it now: "Let's offer up someone with no background just to se how far we can go with it; OK Rothschild, you have the reserves to play God with the financial end; the liberal MSM will go with the flow, as they will be drooling to see a nigger get elected; and Obongo's a nigger with no loyalties who will play along, as long we set him up for life in an offshore account, since he will be forgotten a few years after McCain wins."

Then the Elites can do what America failed to do: Counting on niggers to chimpout, bongo party and riot to the point of civil war and Martial Law being declared, and an armed White America will snuff out the remaining niggers and nigger lovers, ala Charlie Bronson style. Perfect!

Thus they put in place McCain, who the Elites wanted in there anyway.
