25. I'm a Socialist

As a Socialist who comes from a family of Socialists, and has lived in Germany, France and the Netherlands... Obama is in no way a Socialist. I wish he was. He is a Capitalist and a predatory capitalist at that. This BS meme of the neofascist right is just that. BS.

The best way to determine if someone is a Socialist is to ask one..
