Star Parker: Obama and the Democrats' great bait-and-switch

President Barack Obama won the presidency under the persona of healer. He promised to unify a divided nation and said how he would do this by putting ideology aside to solve problems and bringing open, bipartisan governance to Washington, devoid of special interests.

Now, six months into this presidency we have exactly the opposite. Rather than temperatures dropping, they have steadily risen to their current fever pitch. Rather than becoming more unified, we’ve never been more divided.
