PT Barnum Was Right!

I believe it was the great circus-man PT Barnum of Barnum and Bailey fame who said "there is no such thing as bad publicity, any publicity is good publicity!" Now don't hold me to the exact wording on that quote but old PT's point is well taken.


Essentially what PT understood is that any publicity that brings attention to your name can be used in your favor. And that is precisely what the Clinton camp is up to now. Now watch this very carefully: Since the last public debate between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton there has been a marked increase in the amount of news surrounding Hillary. Of course Barack is sucked into the news but this is clearly a case of Hillary initiating the attack in an all out last ditch effort to throw Obama-momentum off course and to attract attention to herself.


Clinton and her staffers understand that any publicity is good publicity. These are no simpletons that we're dealing with here. The increased volume of news initiated by her has lept off of the charts in the last couple of days. She is clearly initiating more news reports than we've seen in the previous 2-3 weeks. First, she's snarling at the camera over the Obama attack mailers that went out in Ohio, then she's mocking Obama in Rhode Island (new tactic) and now her campaign leaked a photo of Obama in African dress. How do I know her campaign leaked the photo? Because neither Clinton nor any of her senior staffers could deny the leak with a straight face.


Here's something else very slick that the Clinton campaign is doing. Pay attention because this is slick and points to their understanding of how the mind works. Although Sen. Clinton has come out and said she even wore native dress when she visited other countries and saw nothing wrong with Obama's Shaka Zulu get up; what they have very cleverly accomplished is subliminally reinforced the message to undecided voters that Obama is a closet Muslim. They have hyponotically implanted an image in voters minds that can't be erased: Obama looks like a terrorist and has a name that sounds like a terrorist. They distract the voters with messaging that says "we're with Obama and we agree that this is an outrage" but they have already done their damage by getting that image in front of us. The Clintons have gotten us to let down our conscious guard by stating that they see no problem with the image and then once that guard is down they slip in the picture which is now embedded in the subconscious mind. On an conscious level, we agree that there is no problem with the picture but at a deeper level we are now associating Obama with terrorism. And that deeper level is where most decisions come from. I know this may sound deep but you gotta stick with me here.


Can you see just how devious this is? This is real talent folks and I must confess that The Brother on the Right has truly underestimated the depth of the Clinton's brilliance. This is an absolutely drop dead smart tactic and it could mean the difference between victory and defeat.


The tactic is to immediately denounce the picture (that you leaked) as outrageous to show your support for your opponent while at the same time planting an image in the voters minds that this guy is aligned with our enemies. Notice how all of this is precisely designed with the announcement of Ralph Nader's entrance into the race which could potentially weaken Obama's young "new voter" base. The timing is just too good to be coincidence.


Slick Hillary. Very slick. We should all pay attention and watch. We are witnessing true genius at work here.


"Oh, Brother on the Right, you're getting too conspiracy theory for me!" Am I now? Well consider this skeptical friends. This Obama photo was taken TWO YEARS ago! Obama was on an official visit to Kenya as a newly elected member of Congress. This picture has been a part of the official and public record for two years. Why would the Clinton campaign leak it now? They could have leaked it six months ago but then Obama wasn't on Clinton's radar as a viable candidate so why bother? Now that Hillary's back is against the wall they are pulling out all of the stops and this shows their level of desperation.


Next, look for some edited photos showing Barack firing AK-47 Assault Rifles into a desert. It will be an obvious cut and paste job buuuuut it will reinforce the image of Barack the Terrorist. You won't see any pictures of Barack in Austria wearing Lederhosen or in Scotland wearing a Kilt. Oh no, only controversial pictures will do here. They may even dig up some pictures of "radical Barack" wearing an Afro wig while holding up the Black Power fist. Did you know he was also a member of the Black Panthers as a two year old? Oh yeah, he was chasing all of the other two year old Hawaiians around forcing them to sing along to James Brown's "Say it Loud, I'm Black and I'm Proud!" This was shortly before the point in Barack's life when the Clintons tell us that a young kindergarten Barack first revealed his nefarious intentions of being the first black President of the United States and making us all sing the Negro National Anthem.


If a picture of Hillary showed up with her wearing African dress Bill would immediately run to a black church and show it off to show just how "black" the Clintons are. It would show us that they are really "down" with the struggle. Any truth to the rumor Bill was last seen asking Rev. Jesse Jackson to show him how to do "The Electric Slide"?
