Jupiter And Obama

An astronomer can tell you where Planet Jupiter will be in 23 months. I am telling you Obama is the next President Of The United States. It is similar.

I am not going to pretend I am objective about Obama. His candidacy is highly emotional to me. My loyalty to Obama is tribal. It is a Third World thing to me.

But my Jupiter comparison is objective, or as objective as is possible in political dynamics. I am talking science.

So if you are someone who needs to place his or her bets, I am giving you a clear hint. Go with it and be a winner.
