Sam Zell knows business, ranking as one of the 60 wealthiest men in America. Among his accomplishments are that he leads or is a major shareholder of: a private American investment firm, Equity Group Investments; Mexico’s most successful builder of low-cost housing; the USA’s largest waste-to-energy conversion company; and the planet’s largest telecommunications and cabling products distributor.
Barry Sternlicht is no business slouch either. He is Founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer of the private investment company Starwood Capital Group and chairman of Starwood Property Trust, the largest commercial mortgage REIT in the U.S.A.
So, what do Misters Zell and Sternlicht think of Barack Hussein Obama?
According to Mary Pilon of the September 14, 2011 Wall Street Journal, Zell wants “Anyone But Obama” to win the 2012 presidential election. Sternlicht says, “We’ve elected a community organizer that’s acting like a community organizer” and, therefore, is unable to deal with our country’s financial crises.
Both of these captains of industry imply what is patently true: the curtain has been torn away to reveal the emperor who has no clothes.
America chose for president a man estranged from reality: a Machiavellian who pretends to be black rather than biracial and who believes he is capable of any and all greatness. Should we be surprised that a man with no effective reality testing enters the presidency convinced that he knows what is best for our country and then sets out to remake our country to his specifications regardless of the consequences? Should we be surprised that Barack Obama is totally opposed to bipartisanship. A man who cannot accept the simple truth of his biraciality, who cannot reconcile the black and white halves of himself, cannot be expected to deal with hard realities facing our nation or to cooperate with those who hold opinions different from his.
