Of all the days to start his reelection campaign why did Barack Obama choose April 4, 2011? Didn't America's first black president realize the significance of that day? That it was the 43rd anniversary of Martin Luther King's assassination, one of the saddest and most tragic days in American history? If he did realize it what then was he thinking for God's sake? That somehow, in a symbolic way, it was an auspicious day to kick things off? Like when he began his presidential run in 2007 outside the Old Statehouse at Springfield, Illinois where Lincoln was born? Or when he chose the 45th anniversary of Dr. King's "I Have A Dream Speech" to give his acceptance speech at the Democratic convention? Unless Obama is completely mad it's inconceivable that he intentionally chose that day to begin his campaign. It's just too bizarre and morbid. Just think how shocked we all would have been if John Kerry, who idolized JFK, had started his quest for the presidency on November 22, 2003, the 40th anniversary of Kennedy's death? Most likely the president and his handlers forgot what terrible event occurred that day four decades before; most likely the first Monday of April* was randomly picked as the starting date for his new campaign. That is the only explanation that makes sense to me.
*April 4, 2011 fell on a Monday.
But could it be that Providence had a hand in arranging that day for Obama to start his campaign? Could it be that the anniversary of Dr. King's death was a warning to America's first black president against being careless with his security while out on the stump, and that unnecessary risks could have deadly consequences? I hope not as Obama's assassination would further tear apart this badly divided country.
But Obama who like Lincoln (an assassinated president) rode a train into Washington for his inaugural, and then, as he botched his oath, was sworn into office on Lincoln's Bible; who one year before was anointed the new JFK (an assassinated president) by his kingmaker Ted Kennedy (who collapsed from a brain tumor at his inaugural before dying seven months later); indeed, as we have seen from a multitude of signs, starting with the death of his grandmother shortly before his election (see), the fatally flawed Obama is an ill-starred man marked by fate for tragedy, defeat and failure. Hopefully that tragedy is limited to a disastrous four year presidency. But adding to my fears for Obama's safety are the following mathematical signs:
April 4, 2011, when Obama's reelection run was announced, was the 804th day of his presidency. Oddly, the number 804* gives us the date 8-04 or August 4th, the month and day of Obama's birth. Even more peculiar is that 804 is a factor of a six digit number that gives us the year 1961, Obama's year of birth, hence:
804 x 244 = 196176
Deriving the president's complete birth date (day, month and year) from the start of his reelection campaign on Dr. King's assassination date should be cause for alarm that carelessness while campaigning and mingling with crowds could end Obama's life, or cause him grave disabling injuries.
But the signs that make me especially fearful for Obama's life are as follows:
804 x 232 = 186528. 1865 was the year Lincoln was assassinated.
804 x 1488 = 1196352. 1963 was the year John Kennedy was assassinated.
Be very, very careful Mr. President.
Postscript: Harding, Kennedy and Obama
I've written about this here three years ago. Obama is the third US president after Harding and Kennedy to come into office directly from the Senate. Harding and Kennedy both died while president.
Obama's grandmother Madelyn Dunham, who died less than 48 hours before his election, was born 600 days into the Harding administration and died on the anniversary of Harding's birthday, which was also the 88th anniversary of his election*.
*Harding was born November 2, 1865. Madelyn Dunham died just before midnight November 2, 2008. Harding was elected 29th President on November 2, 1920, his 55th birthday.
Obama was born 28 weeks into the Kennedy Administration and was anointed by the Kennedys the "new JFK" on the 28th day of 2008 (see).
Just as Obama was born during the term of a president who was fated to be assassinated (
see)
so Harding (who died in office from a stroke) was born in 1865 the year of Lincoln's assassination. Kennedy was born in 1917 during Wilson's second term when he suffered a stroke from campaigning for US membership in the League of Nations and was practically incapacitated. Will Obama's health breakdown from the burdensome strain of his difficult office and his reelection campaign? Obama has complained that he's aging rapidly "in dog's years (see)."
