Obama must be watched, carefully

A number of years ago when I was selling research equipment, I stayed at a motel that was close to the customer facility. Across the street from the motel was a great piano bar I frequented in the evening when in town. This particular night I ran into another merchant whose schedule was much like mine. He had some car catalogs that we had talked about.

Upon leaving he gave me the catalogs. I thanked him, decided to put them in my car, parked in a back lot. While walking down the semilighted back road I saw a large individual coming toward me. My mind went into the "oh, oh," mode. When he was about 10 feet away, he pulled up his sleeve and said, "Wanna buy a watch?" I told him, no thank you, and we passed. Thankfully, it could have been nasty. Half a century later this incident came to mind as I contemplated the actions of our "new President," who I did not and would not vote for. The other day I heard two well-known news show hosts rambling about this person. The gist of the short clip was that no one knew anything about him. Of all the people who should know more about him considering the messages they continually put out over the airwaves, these two certainly should.

This person has more baggage than the Super Chief and now the media denies knowing anything about him? Therefore, the question being the same as I had 50 years ago is, what has this guy got up his sleeve? We must be vigilant and question every move. He has done a lot of talking, most of which I couldn't disagree with more. Reading between the lines, and considering his background, the situation borders on disaster. Please people, everyone, pay attention !!!!!
