Columnist: Obama will destroy us or make us stronger

I've been reading a lot of post-election analysis and found a unique take on the Obama victory at Townhall.com

Columnist Ross Mackenzie sees two possible outcomes of an Obama presidency, one in which Obama does little harm and we all walk away unscathed having given a black man a shot at the presidency or Obama will destroy America as we know it.

I hope it's the former, not the latter.

From Mackenzie's column:
Going forward, the fundamental fears are two: (1) that Obama will prove the redistributionist of his rhetoric, further destabilizing the economy, and (2) that he will not match President Bush's resolve in combating an islamofascist terrorism with the United States in its crosshairs.

If reality vindicates those fears, then President Obama and his new Congress may well lead America into its twilight years -- and the end of the American experiment. If reality proves those fears unfounded and we are not destroyed (Nietzsche's word), then the election of Barack Obama may in fact make us stronger.
