Foster Friess on Barack Obama: Rhetoric vs. Record

I WISH I had the money to put this on national TV, nice job I will forward it to everyone I know. May blessings abound.

I've been leaning towards voting for Obama. If the inconsistencies presented in the video are the sort of objections people have to Barack, it convinces me Barack is clearly the best choice for president over McCain.

Foster, well done.

Here is an interesting clip from You Tube on what Obama had to say about redistribution of wealth when he was a State Senator in Illinois.

Thanks, Foster. Your message scored a bulls eye.

Unfortunately, we often end up preaching to the choir. How do we get this message out to the rest of the world?

Foster: Your insight, understanding and leadership regarding, "the choice ahead", are right on and will give pause to the undecided in the 2008 Presidential Election. As I call it the, "Box Evaluation Method", is this; get outside of the box and look at the problem within the box from all six sides. Unfortunately the herd method or the mass demonstration methods of the Democrate agenda promote the herd followers lack of in depth thought and evaluation. It has taken me many years and bumps and bruises to learn that our education systems information style and content is not teaching our future generations the optimal method of in depth study to progress to the best results. I speak with many upper level educators at a major university in the Denver area and they are following the herd approach of promoting BHO and his agenda. With BHO in the box the six sides outside show exactly what you have revealed: 1>inconsistency,2>convenient interpretation, 3>waffling, 4>deception, 5>poor core values, 6>say anything that can possibly get BHO into the Presidency. BHO believes that as long as he is heard (over and over again) he can influence and direct the herd to his own agenda. I find it interesting that the folks in the Chicago Political Machine are so quiet. Is there a fear factor that looms in the days ahead? Well enough of my on and on! You are a Great American and I look forward to hearing and reading more of your thoughts in the days ahead. May, GOD Bless us everyone!

Foster, I met you at church in JH probably 10 yrs. ago and have since moved to Bozeman. My step-dad is John Schwarz. Glad you two are aquainted. Loved the video and will forward it on. Sara HAhn

Foster,

I always attend carefully to your site. I tried to read Obamas' book as soon as it was published [I was thinking of supporting him]. I was so repulsed by his wormy quality I put it the trash. Your video is the most I have let myself view him since, although I have followed reports in print. Mike Enzi, who has served with him on Senate committees, says Obama has to have staff explain bills to him -- he's not bright, but has a well-managed, cynically manipulative campaign [who is that guy who tells him what to do?]. You are so gentle in presenting this outrage; I hope people will respond to your clear insights and evidence. Susan Gore

Foster - Thanks for pointing these inconsistencies out. It is beyond belief that in this time of both financial crisis and turmoil in parts of the Middle East, that the most inexperienced candidate in our lifetime may win the presidency and a man that spent over five years as a POW for his country is purposely being dishonored by the mainstream media in an attempt to make him look bad. WHERE IS THE OUTRAGE ?

Great video Foster. Very compelling Obama waffles. Thanks.

With all of the adoration towards Obama, the power accumulation of the House, Senate, headed by Palosi, Reid and all the Democrats and many Republicans, the unbelievable amounts of money being marshaled to turn around a failing economy and a voter fraud scheme developed by Obama himself that will place him as the most powerful leader in the world, I believe we are looking at the yet to be revealed twelfth Emam that the Muslims are expecting. Obama himself doesn't even realize the workings of Satan. And after the vote it will all be over except for the shouting. Good bye USA and your beautiful Constitution, It was a sweet ride.
The ignorance of a dumbed down people is astounding and will reverberate in the halls of thinkers for a very long time.

Obama will say WHATEVER it takes to get him elected, then he will dive LEFT, away from the conservative values we are used to. Clearly, he won't restrain Pelosi or Reed...

We need to show this to every undecided voter in every battleground state, and we will win. I'll do my part to forward to about 300. If that doesn't work, then it's FRIESS in '08!!! Sincerely, Lee Beaman

Great job of exposing both of Obama's faces.

Foster, I am getting quite frustrated, I read a lot, blog a lot and I engage my friends and associates about the upcoming election and time after time they tell me that they know that it is irrational to lay the all the blame of the meltdown completely on the republicans but they were on watch and let it happen and since times were good under Clinton they are going to vote for Obama and they refuse to read the kilobytes, megabytes, gigabytes and terabytes that have been written exposing Obama's close ties to William Ayers, Uncle Frank his communist mentor, his ties to radical black liberation theology, his membership in the socialist "New Party" in 1996 etc. When they point out the socialism that Obama wears on his sleeve, they retort, "Well Bush just nationalized the Banks, what's the difference?" they wish to remain ignorant and it IS by choice for many.

You outlined well that Obama can't stick to a position but I bet that he is wedded to many positions he won't even talk about but I'm afraid we will be finding about soon enough.

We are having a referendum on socialism on November fourth; if this referendum passes it is because over 50% of Americans are on board for socialism.

Clearly the American dream has changed so I have to ask myself, - Do I still want to be an American?

Hi Foster, You did it again -- your usual GREAT JOB!! It's very hard to convince people who only listen to CNN and read liberal newspapers that Obama is dangerous. They don't want to be dissuaded by the facts! We don't need to "Meet the Press" -- we need to BEAT the Press. God still performs miracles, so let's all keep praying!
God bless, Jean Soper

It's good news that Obama pays attention to the public, and that he shows flexibility and the ability to compromise. He continues to gain wisdom throughout this campaign, to show great integrity, and to offer new refreshing ideas for change. My 50 year old generation has been ready for this change for years,,,and now we have the opportunity to work together to dig out of this spiraling downward hole. I pray we can.
We must hope that Congress remains balanced to allow for healthy discussion and compromise and the implementation of good ideas.

I get sick listening to this and pray that people wake up.

Great video! It shows Obama's true colors in a nutshell. A genuine acorn he is. I'm absolutely amazed that so many people are pro-Obama when all they have to base their decision on is rhetoric, most of the entertainment industry, and a youthful appearance. It's as if he's put a spell on everyone with his slogan "it's time for change". I'm convinced that they don't want to know what he means about anything. The majority of his white supporters may just be thinking "we need a black man as president to ease racial tension" while most black supporters are saying "it's about time we put a black man in the white house". I don't care what color, man or woman wants to run for president. If they have a strong resume and support the issues that I care about I'll vote for him or her, McCain/Palin.

Hi Foster: GREAT VIDEO! It was very enlightening (not that I need convincing) to see the inconsistencies coming from Senator Obama side-by-side. I am praying for him daily (and his running mate). God bless, Cathy Raphael

Hi Foster,
Could not agree with you more! My feeling is that a tsunami of racial tensions also accompanies this blank slate of a hollow man.

Thanks Foster,

Good thoughts from someone who's experienced great success and thought deeply about what makes America great.

I'd love to see you do another one, drawing on your experience in the financial sector, explaining what went wrong and who were the primary players (business + political) in our recent financial crisis. I think most Americans are vulnerable to competing political 'sound bytes' blaming one party or the other, because they don't have a solid factual understanding of what happened. Were some politicans clearly on the wrong side of the issue, and others attempting to implement corrective action before it reached crisis proportions?

Thanks again for all you do!
