Organizing For America Goes Hamas - Page 1 - Sandy Rios - Townhall Conservative: "There was an interesting article in the Chicago Tribune just days after Barack Obama’s inauguration. Published on January 14, 2009, Peter Wallsten entitled it “Obama’s Team 2.0.” In that article, Wallsten described a freshly minted version of President Obama’s campaign machine morphing itself into the new “Obama 2.0.” The millions of dollars and volunteers left from the aftermath of his cash-glutted presidential run would be tasked to organize in every state and every congressional district. The purpose was not only to move the president’s political agenda, but also to punish Democrats who did not fall in line. Democrats reportedly feared this new organization and others were questioning its dangerous potential. No other president in the history of the United States had ever set about to establish his own personal power in this way.

Wallsten took it further. He described plans to deliver goods and services and aid in disaster relief…all in the name of Barack Obama. This was a new model of power and influence in the West but long familiar to our brethren in the Middle East."
