In the early stages of the Cuban revolution, Fidel Castro was nestled in the hills of Western Cuba, trying to build his army and his support. He was trying to get a message to the people of Havana, letting them know he was going to bring them hope. Yes, hope. Sound familiar? The Cubans heard the message of hope and believed in it -- and the ground swell became so big and intoxicating that Fulgencio Batista laid down arms and succumbed to the coup. The Cuban people were indeed filled with hope -- thinking freedom had finally arrived in Fidel Castro. What happened next was murder and theft -- and every citizen of Cuba lost all of his money and land.
In 2008, Barack Obama ran a campaign with one central theme. That's right...hope. And just like with Castro, the ground swell became huge and intoxicating for the American people, and a completely inexperienced politician with ties to marxists and terrorists was elected President of the United States. In the two weeks since his inauguration, Obama has submitted a stimulus package that is nothing more than theft of the American people's money. And the message of hope has turned into a message of fear. The message of fear says that if the American people do not pass his socialistic stimulus package, our country will fall into a massive depression and every citizen will lose everything for which they've worked. Fear. Not hope.
This fear tactic is nothing more than propaganda. And that, my friends, is Marxism 101.
