In his closing remarks at last night's debate Barack Obama said, "We need fundamental change in this country, and that's what I'd like to bring." Merriam-Webster defines "fundamental" as "of or relating to essential structure, function, or facts" and says that "radical" is a synonym. The related definition of "radical" is "of or relating to the origin." A usage example is "fundamental change," exactly what Obama wants to bring.
So, if we take Obama at his word, it's clear that he intends to radically change the basic structure and function of our government. He can't do that without amending the Constitution or appointing judges that will ignore the Constitution. The former is too hard and slow, so look for him to concentrate on the latter.
I'm afraid that with a cooperating Congress Obama can achieve at least some of the fundamental change that he wants. Look for more hate speech and hate crime laws. Look for the reinstatement of the Fairness Doctrine. Look for new interpretations of the First and Second Amendments. Look for suppression of criticism of the federal government. Look for the federal takeover of public education and attacks on private schools and home-schooling. Look for a lot of retraining (indoctrination) centers around the country for those past public school age. Look for a lot of things that I can't even imagine.
Look for "community organizers" in every precinct in the country and look for them all to be proponents of the Obamanation.
