The real face of Barack Obama

I'm not a supporter of socialism in any form or shape, and readers of this blog will have noticed that I hardly add images. However, the cover image of the most recent issue of the German magazine "marx21" – published by the "international network for socialism" of the same name – is just too good to pass up:

marx21 dares to show the real face of Barack Obama. In a time of crisis and worldwide uncertainty, Obama was elected to be the new 'cool' face of global liberalism – sustained capitalism and continued democratic expansion. If necessary, by means of war. In sober truth, though, Obama bought the presidency, expending more monies than anyone before him. Once more, the man with larger financial resources at his disposal, and a fundraising advantage over the worn-out Republicans, won.

Black or white, nothing will change.
