I’m not sure which bewilders me more; the meme-peddlers claiming that Obama is the product of an elite, upscale background OR the meme-gobblers who believe that claim. From a more objective perspective, he is the result of a successful meritocracy, which is allegedly what the self-same peddlers claim is the genius of America. What’s more, he’s almost as good at annoying leftists as W was. If the GOP had not taken the express bus to Crazytown a while back, he could have been the most popular Republican President since Reagan.

Now THERE’S an alternative history story worth writing!
