The big news story this week is that Barack Obama borrowed a quote from Elizabeth Warren that states that 'nobody got rich on his own. Somebody else did that'. Implying that, whatever your successes are you owe a large part of the success to somebody else - generally speaking public works union members that build roads and bridges. The greatest majority of Americans, specifically businesspersons, disagree strongly with this idea.
Yet here is the irony:
Here is an Amazon link to his campaign poster reading "Barack Obama, A Self-Made Man". You can buy it for $22.50. Rather ironic don't you think? Obama makes money from his 'self-made man' poster while campaigning on the theme that there is no such thing as a self-made man.
And an endorsement by his sister Maya Soetoro Ng titled "Barack Obama: Biography of a Self Made Man.." Here is the link.
So I guess ONLY Barack Obama is a self made man. Everyone else is a fraud and a phony and got their success from somebody else. The rules don't apply to the Community Organizer-In-Chief - or the fake Indian Elizabeth Warren.
