Barack Obama equals Bernard Madoff

Reading this article about Bernard Madoff, I see that people simply wanted to believe what they wanted to believe. How could Bernie do this? people exclaim. He seemed so genuine.

In the financial world, trust and handshakes are so important, as it is in the world of politics. Yet, people want politicians to regulate the financial world. But who regulates the politicians? And who is stop a charlatans populating both the political and financial worlds?

And yet with Madoff, there were clues all along and people didn't want to believe them. I see the same with Obama and his shady Chicago associations. There are so many clues about Obama and how his politics of change will be no change at all and how he is just another politician positioning, not transcending the issues. But it is considered impolite at this time to point them out.
