Don't pursue the American Dream, come and follow Obama!

In a commencement speech at Wesleyan University, Obama advised graduates not to pursue the American dream of success, but to serve others.

"You can take your diploma, walk off this stage, leave this city, and go chasing after the big house and the large salary and the nice suits and all the other things that our money culture says you should buy," he told the graduates. "But I hope you don't."

"Not because you have a debt to those who helped you get here, although you do have that debt. Not because you have an obligation to those who are less fortunate than you, although I do think you do have that obligation. It's primarily because you have an obligation to yourself. Because individual salvation has always depended on collective salvation."

Don't be another Bill Gates and amass a fortune making people more productive and successful in their daily lives and giving your countrymen a standard of living the world will envy. Exchange your cap and gown for sackcloth and ashes. Leave your possessions behind and come and follow Obama.

"Fulfilling your immediate wants and needs betrays a poverty of ambition," he opined. Shame on us for being selfish and buying that car built by an autoworker trying to fulfill his family's immediate wants and needs.

The Path~
Obamessiah's collective dream as a nation-

HIM AND HIS COLLECTIVE- rich, thin, young, famous, safe & entertained
THE REST OF US- poor, fat, old, infamous, terrified and absolutely entertained

I am truly inspired to denounce my poverty of ambition, since I won't be needing it.
It is genuinely gratifying to give my all for the collective and I shall strive for completion of these tenets every day!

PRAISE THE OBAMESSIAH!
LONG LIVE THE COLLECTIVE! Image

PS [HIGHLIGHT=#ffc000]Do I have to be a college graduate for this?[/HIGHLIGHT] If so, I can start immediately and rest assured that the Obamessiah will have the funds ready to assure my success.

I hear! I believe! I will follow you to the ends of the earth, or at least as far as Martha's Vineyard when the estate guards won't let me in.

I realize that I had no ambition. Fill me with your ambition, Oh Matchless One! Let me drink of your overflowing bounty of spirit! I shall follow where you lead, yeah, through the valley of the shadow of socialism. Thy prod and thy goon staff, they comfort me. Surely social justice and the total freedom of personal responsibility shall follow me for the rest of my life and I shall dwell in the house of the Anointed One forever. Until I'm tossed out of it because his jolly friends at ACORN cudgeled bankers into making me a loan when I didn't have a job.

Of course individual salvation depends on collective salvation. But bear in mind that the collective must be guided correctly into the Progressive World of Next Tuesday. And those who do the guiding get to live in the big houses.
