Obama 2.0 is just like Obama 1.0, the only difference is Democrats may be coming to the realization many of us made long ago, it's all about him.
President Barack Obama’s decision to launch his own political organization has some Democrats wondering: Is he just in it for himself?
Obama’s new group, Organizing for Action, will focus on his policy agenda – not on electing Democratic candidates – by raising unlimited amounts of cash and accessing the president’s secret list of 20 million supporters, volunteers and donors.
The operation won’t share money, resources or the priceless Obama email list with the Democratic National Committee or campaign committees that help elect members of Congress, governors and legislators. And it has no plans to coordinate efforts, leading some Democrats to worry that it will take money and manpower away from the party as it heads into the 2014 elections for control of Congress.
“There’s only so much money to go around in Democratic circles. There’s a limited pool of resources,” said Gilda Cobb Hunter, a South Carolina legislator and a member of the Democratic National Committee. “Why can’t we strengthen one entity?”
Several DNC members said in interviews that they weren’t told about Organizing for Action’s formation until it was publicly announced in January. They said that when they’d complained, they were chastised and told by national and state party leaders not to speak publicly. Most spoke to McClatchy only on the condition of anonymity in order to talk candidly about the internal party dispute.
Party Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz, a congresswoman from Florida, tried to alleviate concerns in a conference call with Democrats in March, stressing that the groups wouldn’t compete for money and resources in part because they had different missions.
“What I took away was they heard the complaints of the body,” said one DNC member who was on the conference call.
The DNC declined to comment last week. White House officials have praised the group for helping to promote the president’s agenda.
Days before his second term began, Obama announced that his campaign would morph into a nonprofit, tax-exempt group to rally support across the country for his agenda. “Organizing for Action will be an unparalleled force in American politics,” he told supporters.
Other presidents have created or championed organizations outside the major national parties. Bill Clinton, for example, embraced the Democratic Leadership Council, an organization that pushed a moderate agenda.
But that functioned more as a think tank. And Obama is the first to form a group that will raise millions of dollars as it seeks to perpetuate a year-round campaign for him.

C'mon guys, you haven't realized before that everything is about Obama? The great hope for America has always been a self-serving narcissist.

Who cares what insecure politicians are afraid of? I survive by dealing with REALITY, and not putting people on a pedestal. Party affiliations mean NOTHING.

Hello again, Steve:
C'mon guys, you haven't realized before that everything is about Obama?
Uhhhhh, nope.
If he'da done things the way the DNC wanted, he wouldn't be president... Plus, Democrats don't walk in lockstep like you guys do.
He's his own man. He does things HIS way. That's what leaders do. That's what I do. That's why he's a great man.

LOL, great leaders lead and care about those under them, Obama doesn't lead, and he only cares about himself.

King of Vacation Time: "That honor falls to President George W. Bush, who racked up 1,020 vacation days in his eight years in office, including one five-week vacation, the most of any president in 36 years. Not to say he wasn’t on the job when he was at his Crawford, Texas ranch, but he was away from the White House."
