The 2008 US transition from a conservative to a radically new administration brought the "two Americas" of the haves and have-nots into open battle. Communication sounded the beginning gun and provided the ammunition.
In one America, seventy nine % of the population agreed with US Senator Reid that the previous administration was "the worst ever" in American history, in line with a December Gallop poll. In the other America, a little cadre of the secretive outgoing President's supporters spoke out through the media in defense of an administration winding down on an American political patriarchy and a world white male monopoly.
Topping the list of the outgoing President's defenders was the topic himself, who created accessible in December an interview conducted by his sister in that he said the only regret of his presidency was "faulty intelligence" on Iraq. Even therefore, he said he wanted to be remembered as a "liberator," contradicting the implication that war with Iraq wouldn't have occurred had the intelligence been accurate.
The tanking US economy wasn't on the exiting President's list of regrets, though by early January Barron's declared US Treasury bonds to be the most important bubble in all the US money bubbles encompassing Wall Street, the Securities and Exchange Commission, monetary institutions and the basis of the complete US economic structure from manufacture to lending to investment and world trade. The media lined the tumbling economy amply. The vacating President in his final press conference simply said, "I came into a recession and I'm going out in one."
Throughout the last months of the dying order, the exiting President's defenders echoed the assurance that history would vindicate the "liberator" who had "invaded" Iraq. His wife, his Secretary of State and his Vice President all took to the airwaves to echo the words the President had spoken in that last press conference, that the long-vary read would trump the short-sighted "popularity" he did not worry about.
The obvious message needed very little editorializing. Praise of the President's gains within the Middle East came simply as Israel began an assault on the Hamas leadership that had won the vote in an election the vacating administration had promoted. The Middle East upheaval continued as the vindication message was put out whereas the sitting President's popularity plummeted to the low twenty share vary by his exit.
That exact twilight zone of the 2008 US transition ended when the new administration roared into workplace and started tossing "business as usual" into dumpsters. A tidal wave of support swept into workplace the first minority leader of a western industrialized nation and that was the issue that enabled the new leader to line the method of revolution into motion. The support was due entirely to the much maligned media, which in the 2008 US transition simply did its job.
Throughout the presidential campaign, the media had carried the message of reality forwards and backwards between the people of America and therefore the new leader they would choose. By the twilight zone of the transition, the self-evident was speaking for itself.
