Amazing, People with net worths of 25-60 Million Dollars Declare Obama as an Elitist.
That really makes me laugh. Obama is no slouch when it comes to making money, with a net worth of 1-2.5 million dollars according to a report of net wealth last year, while McCain has 25-40 million and the Clinton's have...well you know how much they have made since leaving the WH. But it really amazes me when the Multi-millionaires who have no children to care for declare others to be elitists.

3. And when she went to her family's summer home, they had NO HEAT!
She feels their pain.

4. "elite" is used in two different ways in American politics...
The first is economic elite, which is considered "good." Because Americans all want to believe they'll be rich.

The second is intellectual/cultural elite, which is "bad." Because America has an anti-intellectual streak a mile wide.
