Former first lady Michelle Obama is “terrified” of the possible outcome of the upcoming presidential election.
In a recent podcast interview, Jay Shetty asked President Obama what keeps him up at night. First, she cited common fears such as war, how artificial intelligence will change society, the climate, phone addiction, and “knowing too much,” and that her husband was once the leader of the free world. Hence the most sensitive people mentioned about knowing. information.
But then she brought up the 2024 election.
“What will happen in the next election? I'm worried about what will happen, because our leaders matter. Who we elect, who will represent us, who will “I think it affects us sometimes, whether you're going to be in the bully pulpit or not. Take that for granted,” President Obama said.
“You know, the fact that people are thinking, “Oh my God, the government really doesn't do anything for us?'' And we cannot take this democracy for granted.” And sometimes I worry that we are doing that. That’s what keeps me going,” she explained.
You are right. Michelle Obama thinks the government does “everything” for us and fears some Americans will disagree with her.
This statement, ironically, frightened the Founding Fathers, who believed in limited government rather than a huge, centralized bureaucracy that employed millions of people and controlled nearly every aspect of society. It highlights the government's view of the government.
Exactly Thomas Jefferson famously wrote 1821:
When all governments, domestic and foreign, gravitate towards Washington as the center of all power, no matter how great, it neutralizes the checks that one government provides on another and makes the government of one country the same. It would be very despicable and oppressive. What we divided.
It's no surprise that a progressive ideologue like Michelle Obama believes the government will do “everything” for us, but to hear her say it out loud That's surprising.
Ironically, it is precisely Obama's views on government that terrify those who oppose her.
