ADVICE TO OBAMA #2: Realizing that Barack Obama doesn’t have much time on his hands, we’d thought we’d help him with his quest for the presidency by passing along advice which he may have missed during his reading years. Given that the current occupier of the White House has been a traitor to the U.S. Constitution, we thought it only appropriate to begin with advice from Niccolo Machiavelli:
“He who founds a republic and does not kill the sons of Brutus will only reign a short time.”
