    Bankers needed to go jail for life and homeowners are the ones who should have been bailed out. If Obama had taken a Rossellveltian strategy, they would have ushered in an era of Democratic rule like was done post WW2 (when America actually got a taste of social democracy). That coalition lasted for almost 40 years after WW2 because it focused on making a material difference in people’s lives and expanding the sphere of civil rights.

    Obama just, he’s not who he campaigns as.
