I never thought of Obama as black until D'Oprah jumped on the obama bandwagon. She did him a disservice if you ask me.

>>>He'll redirect toward welfare and black folks.<<<

With all due respect for the blacks and welfare folks, and especially our women and men serving in uniform, the military ranks do tend to be filled with the lower economic echelons of society.

One might argue therefore that the redirect is already directed there.

One could cut back on the military gear manufacturers of course.

The overall point is that the war is highly stimulative already - we are printing money/creating debt to wage it. Will it bring any ROI??? I don't know. My overall feeling is that social programs don't. One boondoggle for another.
