The unspoken issue of the Obama “change, it’s all about change, the changes they are a timin’” Tomorrowland Campaign is the nature of government, and the role of the individual in society. Obama is promising paradise, a land of happiness and prosperity, of painless, effortless bliss. No more splinters under fingernails, no bitten tongues, twisted ankles, dead batteries or overflowing toilets. No dust. No bad smells. Food will cook itself. Mickey Mouse’s D.C. powered broom from Fantasia will carry all water, chop all wood. We will all triumphantly return to the Garden once the Casablanca Snake is forced into the exile of the limited term. Oh yes, and “seas, and ships, and sealing wax…” Save us, Obama-Nobi, you’re our only hope. Except for that one little problem he cannot solve, just a tiny, tiny thing…mortality. What you gonna do when death comes for you?
