The Obama Diary 2033

If Obama is still the President in 2033,

what will the United States be like?

Spring Clark is a young woman, married with two children.  In 2033, shortly after Obama takes the oath of office for the seventh time, she begins to keep a diary.  The events that take place in her life reveal the changes that have taken place in the United States in the previous twenty years.  Some of these are appalling, some humorous.  Others are shocking and frightening to contemplate.

Who is Obama’s second wife?

What famous actor does Michelle eventually marry?

Do we still have the same holidays? 

Has our educational system changed? 

What are the requirements for the

Advanced Sex Education Program?

Is Chris Christie still Governor of New Jersey?  Or has he moved on to bigger

things? 

Is Fox News still around? 

Are there any rich people left in the United States?  Or have they just “left”?    Religion – irrelevant or irreligious?

Why are there fewer senior citizens?  

These are just a few of the topics Spring writes about in her diary.  She represents the thinking of mainstream America, but is that good for our country? 

There are some who disagree with Spring, such as her husband and older son, James.  The conflicts within her family finally come to a head by the end of the year.

Is this diary prophetic of the America of 2033?  Sometimes absurd, sometimes ridiculous, it is also a sobering reflection on the direction of our country.
