Author's Note: This interview is the first face to face sit down in months with our longtime D.C. political operative we have come to simply call "Insider". They offer up a unique perspective and insight based upon their decades-long experience as a D.C. insider working within the highest levels of government- including helping to elect Barack Obama in 2008. Here now are the words of Insider, unedited and published in their entirety per their request. This is part three of the interview. WARNING: Adult Content
Insider: (Pauses) -- As far as it takes. We're preparing for it. I sure as hell hope America is too. Like I told you -- this election coming up -- Brutal.
Ulsterman: What do you mean by we - we are preparing for it? And are you actually saying that Barack Obama would push for race riots to somehow win a presidential election? That sounds -- far fetched. Even for this administration.
Insider: Does it? How so? You need to take step back and see more of what has been happening in this country. It's why this thing went from a concern about the party to a serious concern about the country. Why aren't you seeing that?
Ulsterman: Just explain - the race rioting. I don't see how that would help Obama get re-elected. It doesn't -- I just don't see how that would work. In fact it seems like just the opposite. If we go from economic chaos to -- whatever one would call it - racial chaos -- that doesn't help Obama. So yeah - I don't see what you are saying there.
Insider: (Leans back - folds arms across chest) You and too many goddamn Americans don't see it so don't feel so bad. You know, other world leaders see it. Putin. Sarkozy. Merkel. Harper -- Barack Obama is incapable of anything remotely resembling leadership, but he is also quite capable of the kind of dangerous arrogance that the very worst leaders in history possessed. (Pauses) Look, let me try and paint a picture for you - a clearer picture of what Obama really is. If you were to step into the White House and see the man at work, or whatever the hell it is he calls it. It's not the same as what some of his own people are calling it - I know that for certain. The jokes, the sneers that go on behind the president's back. You want to see that picture? The real Barack Obama? Maybe then you might understand what the man is capable of - really capable of.
