Imperial History
A number of well-intentioned souls voted for Obama and other Democrats in the hope they might roll back the Empire.
Ain’t gonna happen!
Did any Caesar cut back on the power of his predecessor, or increase it, if he could do so?
A new Chinese dynasty always faithfully wrote up the history of the previous one it had overthrown, careful to keep the imperial dynastic idea intact. In such eyes, the Emperor always has a full wardrobe!
Here in America, Obama is not about to explore or condemn the power excesses of the previous President. Forbid it, Almighty God!
And, he has no shortage of Court Historians to help him to prepare the materials for a future history of his own dynasty.
