Is Obama's back drop symbolism for what is to come?

Question

we all remember the rise and fall of the Roman Empire from history class, is Obama giving us a preview of things to come?

Answer 1

Rome was where the ideals of Democracy got its start.  We should be so lucky to return to Democracy after 8 years of Bush.

Answer 2

Wow I thought Bush did that in 2004 when he used almost IDENTICAL staging for his acceptance speech

you folks are AMAZINGLY hypocritical or forgetful one

Answer 3

He's too whimpy for that but whoever pulls his strings might.  Really, it is probably just a joke he's playing on the Obamabots (but they won't get it).  

Answer 4

It's actually more greek and you know what greek s*x is don't you!

Answer 5

The New Rome (the USA) is already on the slippery slope.  Nothing lasts forever!  America had done well, and Will continue to do well for a while yet.  But the writing is on the wall, and the wall will fall!  I won't be around to mourn it, but if I was, I WOULD mourn it!  What will follow will not be so benevolent!

Answer 6

Do you mean that he will become a Greek god?

I'm wary of anyone being placed upon such a high pedestal.  It hurts more when they fall.  

Answer 7

it's actually more greek... which the roman's copied...

you know... greek... father's of democracy...
