Letter: Obama will be seen as irrelevant

I will try to state this concisely.

Obama, the supreme narcissist was, is, and will ultimately be proven by the events of history to be totally irrelevant.

To those who feared (sometimes myself included) that he would be successful in his stated goal to “fundamentally transform America,” I can honestly say I think we were wrong. It will be a long way back, but we’ve turned the corner.

In the end, America will have transformed him into what he always was, a pompous egomaniac who had a glorious chance to be a champion of real racial equality and justice, but blew it.

Fumigate the White House and Air Force One and move on.
