"WORLD-LEADER QUIZ" POSTER
2013-05-13

        The WORLD-LEADER QUIZ poster lists nine parallels between Barack Obama's rise to power and Adolph Hitler's 1933 election as Germany's Chancellor. In the poster's supporting text, Arizona Gun Talk develops a tenth similarity between the two leaders; support of gun control. Following the Sandy Hook school shooting, president Obama lobbied forcefully for several gun control proposals. He claimed they would never lead to confiscation because his administration is, "constrained by a system that our Founders put in place. It's a government of and by and for the people." Poster 25's text argues that he's unwilling to abide by constitutional constraints.

        Poster 25 is not intended to equate the Obama administration with the Third Reich. Hitler was a madman who tried to conquer half the world. In contrast, president Obama's stated goal is to "fundamentally transform" the nation but the full range of his objectives are not yet clear.

        Wife Mary and I realize that even obliquely comparing the president's circumstances to Hitler's will not be well received. If we weren't already on a DHS extremist list, we are now. However, only our ideas represent a threat because we're in our eighties and in poor health. Month by month we evaluate whether to go into assisted living. Also, keeping long-guns was too strenuous so we sold the few we had. Nevertheless, age and ill health don't preclude having a passion for freedom. May God bless and keep our nation.
