Turns out, it was a guy who identified himself as a “community organizer” trying to get more community support for President Obama. Thinking this would be fun for me, I ask him why he supported Obama. His reasons were right out of the the Obama campaign talking points against Romney. Romney wants to take all woman’s rights away and he hates people that are not rich. He also said how Obama is for the working man. This organizer did not look happy when I brought up how it seems he is more interested with campaigning with Clooney, Jay Z and Beyonce other then speaking with Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyah. Also did not like when I made the that the supposed out of touch rich people Obama seems to against he also finds himself aligning himself with during his campaign.
I then asked him how Obama was for the working man. He said that Obama saved Detroit and Romney would have just let them fail and/or out sourced. I then brought up how US tax dollars were used to be given to foreign companies to buy parts of GM, which a lot of those divisions were then outsources. I then made the comment how it seems weird that people are OK when Obama outsources using US tax dollars, but when Romney did this at Bain Capital with private money, that was horrible!. Mr Organizer was appeared to be getting upset and really couldn’t come up with a response.
Going off the Romney thing, since there is no way to argue or have an intelligent debate with someone who will not look or investigate the other side, I turned the conversation to talk about President Obama. I informed him that I did vote for Obama, but Obama has not come through with one campaign promise that I voted him in for and vent into detail about them. He then tried to say how the Republicans have been blocking him, to which I responded, his first two years there was a super majority where the Democrats were in control of the house and senate. I also brought up there has not been a budget for three years. Almost all the time Obama has been in office. You can see the smoke coming out of his ears trying to hold back some petty response how I am racist or something like that because I can tell he was getting upset, but he was not able to respond to anything I brought up.
To his credit, when I brought up Fast and Furious he did say he did not know anything about it so he could not form a response to it. I then explained it to him.
He then made the common statement when you criticize Obama that I must be for Romney. Where I informed him that I didn’t like either of them and I was a supporter of Dr. Ron Paul, but the media was disgusting on how they portrayed him.
I then brought up Libya and the whole debacle on that. Brought up how Obama without directly saying it, said he was sorry about the video that supposedly started this and how the US had nothing to do with it. I also brought up the new reports that Ambassador Stevens asked for more Security was ignored or denied on these request before the attack happened.The organizer then started to deflect asking well, how would Romney deal with it? To I responded, Romney is not the President, Barack Obama is and we are not talking about a candidate we are talking about the person who actually is holding the office.
The organizer then thanked me for my time and handed me one of his flyers.
To all people out there that are going to go door to door and support one candidate or another please know your shit. Especially if you consider yourself an “organizer”.
