It is not often that we have epiphanies, but last evening watching Ted Kennedy I finally understood.  Michelle Obama and her admission about her feeling for the first time of having a scene of being proud of her country was not race or gender driven.  It was simply an illustration of why PUMA and other splinter groups are fighting for control of the Democratic Party.  The far left of the Democratic party believes that if they are not a reason for, or instrumental in, easing or eradicating what they perceive as the day to day oppressive condition that define life, and spending our money the way they would see us do so… then yes, they are not proud of this country.   It is what I will deem, Ploitamegalomania.
