Caveat: Space Emperor Obama, Quoting Lincoln

Space Emperor Obama's book, The Audacity of Hope, gives clear evidence of his dangerous socialist tendencies… as, for example, when he quotes that proto-communist, Lincoln, on page 188.  The future Space Emperor writes:

But our history should give us confidence that we don't have to choose between an oppressive, government-run  economy and a chaotic, unforgiving capitalism.  It tells us that we can emerge from great economic upheavals stronger, not weaker.  Like those who came before us, we should be asking ourselves what mix of policies will lead to a dynamic free market and widespread economic security, entrepreneurial innovation and upward mobility.  And we can be guided throughout by Lincoln's simple maxim:  that we will do collectively, through our government, only those things that we cannot do as well or at all individually and privately.

extratoritory — a law where the president can do whatever he wants.
