Barrack Obama = Pierre Elliott Trudeau

It has been almost 25 years since Trudeau left 24 Sussex drive, and we are still dealing with the wreckage of his policies (Constitution, NEP, welfare state).   Their lives are parallel in many ways.  Check out the wiki post on PET.  Ignore the Liberal hagiography of his political accomplishments - ask any Albertan about the NEP.   

America, you've been forewarned.
