When Obama Admitted that Democrats Engage in Voter Fraud

It's refreshing to remember that Democrats complained about voter fraud as much as Republicans did.



Barack Obama, when he was running for Presiden tin 2008, admitted that both parties had been involved in voter fraud.

He emphasized that Democrats had engaged in voter fraud, and that admission is significant.

Check out this admission from 14 years ago:

Ohio was the bellwether state for elections in 2000, in 2004, and in 2008.

When Barack Obama won Ohio in 2012, or at least when the state was called for Obama, Karl Rove went apoplectic on Fox News and demanded that the newscasters check the number again.

It made no difference.

That fact that Obama won Ohio was the calling card that the corporate media needed to announce Obama as re-elected.

It's amazing how bad things were during the Obama Administation. This country was in bad shape them, with anemic unemployment, a rising racialism that spilled in manifest tensions and protests across the country. And now we are getting twice as much of the same failed policies. Then again, perhaps we cannot call those policies "failed," since Barack Obama was deliberately determined to bring down the United States.

Putting all of that aside for the moment, can't we find something interesting in the fact that Obama admitted that Democrats engaged in voter fraud? Everyone should be interested in extensive efforts to ensure voter integrity and proper election reforms across the board.

Let's get this done. Let's stop waiting for the right people to get elected at some point. It's time to start working with the rules that we have, and then pushing through for necessary reforms to tighten up the voting process.

Washington Post on Obama Rally in Anaheim

Towards the end of the Obama Rally, which was more like a sad therapy sessions for the desperate California Democratic Party.

Their actual turnout numbers were pretty weak considering what they hoped to bring into the California primary.

They have weak or unknown candidates, many of whom met with Barack Obama in Orange County because they feared his presence in their home districts, where he is simply not that popular.

On top of that, there was a small turnout: 750 to 900, depending on which reporter tells you what.

One of the reporters on scene was reporting for the Washington Post. Some of the member of our Trump team did not want to talk to him. Fortunately, he came back and spoke to the rest of us. We all had something we wanted to say.



Here's the final report that appeared on the Washington Post website:

‘We’re going to fight’: Obama hits the campaign trail in California

ANAHEIM, Calif. — Waving a clipboard and calling for more citizen activism, former president Barack Obama returned to the campaign trail Saturday, reprising his role as the Democratic Party’s biggest star at a California rally for seven U.S. House candidates.

No, he is not the biggest star. He barely encountered 750 people at this rally. The Anaheim Convention Center had to move the meeting from a large ballroom for 5,000 to a side room for a much smaller number.

The event came nearly 20 months after Obama left the White House and committed himself to withdrawing from the daily political debate in the tradition of presidents past. In recent days, however, he has made clear that he can no longer remain restrained.

Let's cut through the crap here. Obama had no intention of walking away from national politics. He intended to take his Organizing for Action activism machine a step further and continue his efforts to fundamentally transform the country using Saul Alinsky style tactics.

He was never going to go away gently. He has no intention of acting as though he has no power any more. In fact, much of the Deep State today comes from his appointments and micromanaging the massive bureaucracies with his appointees and directives throughout his two terms in office.

“The only way we reverse that cycle of anger and division is when each of us as citizens step up and say we are going to take it upon ourselves to do things differently,” he told a crowd of 900 at the Anaheim Convention Center, his shirt sleeves rolled up his arms. “We’re going to fight for the things that we believe in.”

Obama doesn't believe in much of anything, does he? He didn't mention many of his priorities during that rally, according to videos I had watched of the event.

Unlike the blistering speech he delivered Friday in Illinois, where he compared President Trump to a demagogue and described the current moment as a time of “political darkness,” Obama offered no pointed critiques of his successor — or mention him by name. Instead Obama struck a light note, focused on the biographies of California candidates he was there to help, calling out his love for the crowd three times, and even recounting his childhood visits to nearby Disneyland.



Why? Because going after Trump backfired. Such rhetoric directed at the President fires up the Republican base. Many Democrats right now are not big fans of Obama. The Berniecrats have taken over the California Democratic Party, even if the Hillary-aligned Eric Bauman is the new chairman.

His central message, which he hit repeatedly, was that Americans needed to become more involved in electoral politics. He praised the outpouring of Democratic energy in recent special elections, and called for more.

We are, and that's why Trump got elected. We are involved, which is why more cities throughout the state have opted out of SB 54 and why churches across the state lobbied against the state legislature to stop AB 2943.

“During these times of uncertainty it is always tempting for politicians for their own gain and people in power to see if they can divide people, scapegoat folks, turn them on each other,” he said. “The biggest threat to our democracy, as I said yesterday, is not one individual. It is not one super PAC billionaire. It’s apathy.”

That's what Obama did for eight years. For all his talk about "There is no red America. There is no blue America," he spent a great deal of time propping up the illiberal policies of blue states, which impoverish their residents while corrupting the government. He also spent more time sticking it to the red states, going out of his way to frustrate their political and moral ambitions.

Obama stood on stage with six of the seven California Democrats running in Republican-held districts that Hillary Clinton won in the 2016 election. The state is a central battleground in the Democratic effort to flip 23 Republican seats and retake control of the U.S. House.

Actually, he spent most of the time standing alone on the stage. At the end of his speech, the seven candidates come on stage with him, but they didn't spend much time with Obama. He went right down to the crowds and mingled with the people who came to see "The One.

Vanity is what Barack Obama is all about. He cares about himself, which might explain why a lot of people didn't show up to see him.



Mike Levin, one of the congressional candidates Obama praised in his talk, said the visit had been a boon for his volunteers and supporters. “This will energize them,” said Levin, who is running in a district that includes parts of Orange and San Diego counties.

What volunteers, though? There were only 750 people there to begin with!

Obama will attend a second rally Thursday in Ohio for Democratic gubernatorial candidate, Richard Cordray, a former Obama appointee. These are Obama’s first public campaign events since he attended rallies for Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam and New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy in 2017. He has also attended several fundraisers for Democratic efforts, recorded a robo-call for Alabama Sen. Doug Jones and this summer he released his first round of 81 federal and state-level endorsements.

Not many of the candidates in California received an endorsement from Obama. What's the point? Many of his and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez' endorsements all fell flat, too!

President Trump has so far greeted Obama’s return to politics with a mixture of sarcasm and disdain. Trump initially dismissed the Friday speech as boring. “If that doesn’t get you out to vote for the midterms, nothing will,” he said sarcastically on Friday, while visiting Sioux Falls, S.D.

Obama's speech was not very rousing or engaging. He said some straightforward comments, but there was nothing of his legacy that he could talk about. President Trump has rolled back and eliminated so much of Obama's corrupt, decrepit legacy. This is great news for the vast majority of Americans, many of whom did not think they would see happy, prosperous days ever again.

Trump later retweeted several posts contesting parts of what Obama had said. One forwarded message from former Fox News anchor Eric Bolling argued that Obama was trying to take credit for Trump’s economic success. The tweet derisively summarized the successes of the Obama presidency as simply “Slick Speaking” and “School Shootings.”



Yes. Very true. How sad, however, that the Washington Post has to rely on President Trump's tweets for information. If they engaged in more honest reporting, they would get more access to the White House and his staffers.

Trump also retweeted a post from Richard Grenell, the U.S. Ambassador to Germany, who noted the Trump administration had recently deported a former Nazi. Obama had criticized Trump for failing to sufficiently condemn Nazis who had marched in Charlottesville, asking, “How hard can that be, saying Nazis are bad?”

Richard Grenell's efforts with the Trump Administration helped to get that done.

The event Saturday in Anaheim was scripted to appeal broadly beyond the activist base, who filled the crowd of hundreds. Two of the speakers before Obama identified themselves as current or former Republicans. Others gave testimonials about the need for protections provided by the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare.

"Filled the crowd of hundreds." Wow. That's what I call initiating some spin, right there.

“The big blue wave starts right here in California,” said Eric C. Bauman, the chair of the state Democratic Party, before offering a fresh twist on Trump’s slogan. “This election is about fixing America again.”

America is already getting fixed. Our economy is stronger, there is more access to work. President Trump is rolling back an incredible number of regulations. He has nominated two Supreme Court Justices, with the second one very likely to join the first confirmed appointment to the highest court in the land very soon.

All of this is very exciting!



Irvine resident Bob Nicoll, a training manager for a computer game company, was one of the attendees who received a ticket to the event through the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee.

“We’ve had enough,” he said before Obama spoke. “Truth matters. We all feel mobilized.”

Democratic operatives like this guy would not know the truth if it bit them on the butt. The Democratic Party is not interested in the truth, they are no longer interested in morals, they have a long history of racism (which they are struggling to cover up), and now they are going along with the fantasy of socialism and centralized government.

Barack Obama does not inspire people anymore. The thrill is gone.

A group of about six Trump supporters gathered outside the hall where Obama spoke, including one who only would speak with a Post reporter through a bullhorn, shouting that the reporter was “scum.”

There were 25 Trump supporters total who showed up and counter-protested. We demonstrated our love and enthusiasm for President Trump, too.

After the speech, protester Arthur Schaper said he and other Trump backers are “fed up with lies being said about the president.” A Democratic “blue wave” in November “ain’t going to happen,” he said.

Yes. For once, a major newspaper quoted me accurately and appropriately.

Scherer reported from Washington. Josh Dawsey contributed to this report from Sioux Falls, S.D.

Final Reflection

There is a lot of reservation about talking with the press. He had asked me about my affiliation with MassResistance, too, but ultimately did not write about it.

Not that big a deal, but I did record my interaction with the reporter:

After Obama's Sad California Rally, Democrats Should Prepare for a Bad November

The Democratic Party is banking on a blue wave for Election 2018. A few high-profile special elections have gone to Democrats, especially in red areas like Southern Pennsylvania and Alabama. Legislative seats throughout the country in historically red area have gone blue as well. However, special elections differ significantly from normal primary and even general election turnouts. Republicans won a House seat in Hawaii during a special election in 2010. Republicans took back the house in the 2010 Tea Party Wave, but Democrats won their seat back.



For Election 2018, Democrats cannot expect significant gains. Trump has delivered on many promises, and the Democrats have overextended their vitriol. The media can’t cover for their craziness anymore. In fact, they seem more worried than excited about their prospects. Enough that former President Barack Obama paid a visit to Orange County, California to rally for seven House candidates. They are targeting five incumbents and competing for two open seats. Why bring out the big guns when your chances are looking so good? Roll Call even indicated House races in five states, including California, will determine who controls the House next year. But here comes Barry, anyway.

When Obama announced that he was campaigning in California for House candidates, I had to be there. At the last minute, twenty-five of us Trump supporters in the Orange County-Los Angeles County area showed up to make our presence known. The President and his press agents didn’t release the time and location of his rally until two days before. Judging by how small the turnout turned out, it’s easy to see why Democrat organizers were reluctant to offer specifics about the rally location.

Why Orange County, anyway? Why not Los Angeles or San Francisco? Democrats are hoping for gains in this conservative district because Hillary Clinton won a majority in Orange County, specifically in Congressional seats represented by Republicans. They actually think they can flip these seats during the midterms. This logic is flawed, especially since the incumbents far outpaced the Presidential nominees to win back their districts. Incumbency in smaller races helps their chances going forward. Despite all the reports that California is a wasteland of faded liberals, welfare queens, and illegal aliens, many die-hard Trump supporters are fighting to Make California Great Again. Our team of activists has grown to the extent that we have former Bernie and even Jill Stein supporters rallying for Donald Trump and Republican candidates. Some of those Democrats have joined our ranks and want Trump to succeed.

Obama with a fellow Anti-Semite

How many people showed up? Despite the long line, the Democratic turnout was pretty sad. For all the tickets which had been offered to see Obama in person, organizers were still giving them away thirty minutes after he had shown up. They couldn’t offer the tickets fast enough, it seemed. What’s worse, the organizers first intended for Obama to speak in one of the larger ballrooms. Then they changed the venue to something much smaller.

The Washington Post reported that a grand total of 900 people attended the rally. Another reporter told me directly that about 750 to 800 showed up. Really? In Arizona last year, 15,000 people packed into the Phoenix convention center, and then there were the crowds outside, both supporters and detractors; in Billings, Montana last week, 10,000; at the Evansville, Indiana rally, 11,500 packed into the Ford Auditorium, with 2,000 more waiting outside, with 7,000 people in Elkhart, Indiana in May. How about the 9,000 who came to the Wilkes-Barre rally in Pennsylvania? Trump draws massive crowds in swing states and red states. I can’t wait for Trump to come back to California and draw an even more favorable comparison.

Of the 700 plus liberals who showed up, most are the abusive activists who have flipped off conservatives or cursed at, yelled at, and overwhelmed city council meetings throughout Orange County over the last nine months. Their vain attempts to stop the growing opposition to California’s odious sanctuary state law haven’t paid off. The frustrated rage of the Orange County (and the California) Democratic Party merely reflects their desperation for Election 2018. Old women in line to see Obama made obscene gestures at us Trump supporters. The younger generation played the race card or called Trump a fascist traitor. None of them could explain why.



In contrast to Trump’s epic speeches rallying the faithful, Obama’s speech was a middling exhortation. As expected, he spent more time talking about himself, including youthful days of deviance when he was caught smoking at Disneyland, when he was forced to leave. Forgive me for asking, Barry, but weren’t you supposed to be “testifying to how wonderful these candidates are”? Democrats are targeting seven house seats in California, although some ambitious activists have included three more long-shots. The Democrats brought him in to bring in money, resources, and volunteers, right?

After twenty minutes of talking about himself, Obama briefly touched on the life and professional history of the featured candidates. Strangely enough, one of the seven didn’t even show up. Another one, Gil Cisneros, has been accused of sexual misconduct, and yet Democrats are ignoring this.  Two of the Democratic Congressional candidates hail from the Central Valley. What were they doing in Orange County? Couldn’t Obama have roused the faithful in Kings, Fresno, and Stanislaus counties? No way, since left-wing Obama would be a massive drag on any Democratic ticket in the Centrist Central Valley. Democrats in that region tend to be more conservative than Republicans in Los Angeles County!



While pundits assume that California Democrats love Obama, a growing number see him as nothing more than a corporate shill who bailed out banks and insurance companies. Bernie Sanders supporters have all but taken over the Democratic Party in California. Obama is not just the past, but a sad reminder of how far the Democratic Party has fallen, and his pitiful Anaheim rally proved these points. When Obama comes to California, and no one shows, Democrats had better lower their expectations for November.

Trump Supporters vs. Barack Obama at Anaheim Convention Center (Full Report)

On Thursday, September 6, the local press finally informed the public where President Barack Obama was going to hold his rally in Orange County. Two days prior, they had informed readers that the former President was coming, but they had no idea where specifically.

I suspect that the press did not record where he was going because his organizers had no idea where to put him. At first they were going to have him speak in one of the large ballrooms at the Anaheim center. Then they ultimately settled for a side room. The first room can hold up to 5,000 people, according to one report.

The number of people who ultimately attended? Between 750 and 800.

Now that is a pretty stingy little number of people, especially for a former president. Obama was supposed to be this big time Messiah for the county, the guy who would bring the hope and change to make everything all well and good in the country.

Here's the full YouTube Live video that I took at the convention center:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxaQDfCw_TI

Not only did that not happen, but many of the Democrats who had supported him walked away, and they voted for Donald Trump. Many of those voters are now fully in the Trump camp and they support Republican candidates cross the board. This development is truly exciting.

So, when we Trump supporters heard about Obama coming to Anaheim, we knew that we wanted to counter-protest.

Crystal Jade helped set up our network of activists, and we showed up Saturday morning right outside the convention center.

Check out our first set of protests:





We had some new people join us, too, men and women who haven't had the chance to protest with us in the past.

Some of the passers-by yelled at us, but some of them were quite supportive, including residents living across or down the street from us.

One of Omar Navarro's campaign staffers joined us, too:




One source told us that President Obama was going to drive down Transit Plaza to enter the convention.

I didn't wait, but went to join with another one of our fellow Trump supporters, who was closer to the entrance:

Robert Lauten speaking with a local reporter

Robert Lauten joined with another Trump supporter to blare out that all of the Russia-Collusion nonsense was going nowhere fast. I can't wait for President Trump to declassify all the FISA warrants and other redacted reports exposing the abusive, corrupt, treacherous Deep State.

For me, seeing the line of Democrats and pro-Obama people was what this was all about.

I love questioning and confronting these liberals on their fanatical appreciation of Barack Obama. Di they forget so quickly that Obama and the Clintons robbed Bernie Sanders?

Check out the first set of people whom I confronted:






Most of the liberals were pretty shallow in their attacks against me. The most disrespectful people in line were the elderly women. They would routinely flip me off. Is that how they behave in front of their grandchildren? Let's hope they don't have any!

One of the people in line said that Trump was a traitor. Why? He couldn't tell me.

I saw so many people promoting Gil Cisneros for Congress. This guy has serious #MeToo issues, and former campaign volunteers have called him out on his sexual harassment. I also saw David Min, the rude Asian-American Democrat who ran against Mimi Walters in the primary, and he had also shown up to a few of our protests outside of Mimi Walters' office earlier this year.

He didn't have much to say when I mocked him for losing big time in the primary. "That's what you get for not talking to your prospective constituents."

Claudio, the staffer who works in Congressman Lou Correa's office in Santa Ana, was also there. He was really scared when he saw us Trump supporters. He walked away as fast as he could, then buried himself in the line into the Convention Center room.

Then some of the Brown Supremacists showed up! They went to counter-protest our counter-protest! FUNNY!




They made little difference.

It's so strange how the left wants to smear Trump supporters as a bunch of racist white supremacists.

Our group of Trump supporters showed far more diversity than the Democrats lining up to see Obama. Many of us were more than happy to speak with the press and with other people lining up or waiting to get inside.

One lady, born in France but living in the United States, argued with me about health care, and she said that we should have a health care system more like France. There are two aspects to the French system which should be adopted: the medical professionals often bring the emergency room to the patient, in the hopes that they can resolve the issue fully at the person's home. That's a wise move which saves resources in a hospital for those who really need it. The French health care system is also tort averse, in that people cannot just run to court and sue every time something goes wrong health wise.

The reason why Kaiser Permanente provides quality health care at a price which many people can afford is that they resolve health issues and lawsuits through alternate dispute mediation. They have also stayed out of the Obamacare insurance markets, which jacked up the prices while taking away choices.

The lady from France was more respectful than most of the people in line. I saw some of my more friendly political opponents there, including Tom the Vietnamese American, who was born and raised in Whittier, CA.




Another lady called me a racist because I was confronted the Brown Supremacist bigot Robert "Naui" Hernandez. About ten minutes later, she came back to me to ask a serious question. I told it was not OK for her to call me "racist", and she acknowledged that was wrong. Then we had a very civil, productive discussion about health care issues. She told me about her father, who had passed away from cancer. I told her about my Dad who has been able to stave off serious cancer issues, too.




Reporters showed up after the smattering of Democrats entered the convention center.

We talked with them for a while, too:






Final Reflection

I sent this message to a friend of mine after our Trump counter-protest to the Obama rally:

It went so well! I have never had so much fun in in so many months. All of these silly liberals were lined up to go into this very little room. The Anaheim Convention Center had originally set aside Ballroom E for Obama, but the numbers that came were much smaller than anticipated! Ultimately about 700 people attended his little rally in a little room.


Major fail! I don't think people realize, but a lot of people don't like Barack Obama and the Democratic Party anymore. They see him as way too corporate. I had so much fun on the outside triggering and trolling some of the Liberals, many of whom could not explain why they hate Donald Trump. There were other people however, whom I had very civil discussions with. I enjoyed talking with them. All the emails, photos, and videos are going to be uploaded in the next 24 hours. I am so tired right now. I have to rest, but thanks for reaching out.

We assembled a pretty decent team of Trump supporters despite getting information about the details of this event at the last minute.



We had a lot of fun.

I am glad that members of We the People Rising along with LA County and OC for Trump showed up, too:


I liked that we had a diverse group of people show up, and were willing to do on an early Saturday morning, to boot. One of the reasons why I had come to this event was to see how many people would actually turn out to see former President Barack Obama.

How staggering it was that so few showed up to see this has-been. His legacy has all but disappeared after less than two years. The hope and change which Obama promised, Trump has delivered for the American people. The voters in this country rejected the regressive leftists bigotry of the Democratic Party and their increasingly socialist leanings. If the Democrats don't learn from history and pay attention to the fact that their numbers are dwindling across the country, they will probably face in deeper losses going into November.

I sincerely doubt that Democrats are going to pick up the requisite number of seats needed to gain the House Majority next year. The fact is that they are not properly targeting the right seats. The radical progressive base is turning off mainstream voters, many of whom now have new work and better pay. The more wealthy the average American becomes, the less likely they are to support tax hikes, regulatory burdens, and rampant assaults against their individual liberties.
