Cults are typically defined by five characteristics. First, cults tend to centralize power in the hands of a single individual or small group that is considered beyond questions. Second, they treat all questions about the group and its beliefs as intolerable challenges to the group's authority and authenticity. Third, they demean all those who do not share their beliefs and sow fear and mistrust amongst their believers about all such people. Fourth, they typically cut off all or most opportunities for members to interact freely with those outside the group. And finally, they take revenge upon those who choose to leave the group, in ways which include, cutting them off from all relationships with those who remain inside, confiscation of material goods and even physical harm.

NO he isn't a cult leader. He is a leader of dumb-asses and kiss-asses.

Something to remember when you are consuming information. Most people consume information and examine it in relation to what the bad guys are up to in pursuing their agenda. It should not be examined in the context of what they are up to ,but why they are feeding you the information and its purpose in relation to their agenda. That includes all media left,right and middle. Do not worry the good guys will come out on top. Remember the hardest predator to catch is the one who senses the trap. To trap this predator the bait must be such that it overcomes this sense.

Yes .. and definitely yes. (Hey, let's add the media as well -- for they are definitely overwhelmingly producing what amounts to propaganda for the cult's crux)

It's certainly cult-like. To minorities he's the messiah. To youth he represents "change" which is only anarchy. To the poor he represents "hope". To the ignorant, he is eloquent. But how reducing the "haves" to the lowest common denominator helps any of these is beyond me.

If your critera are correct, then it would be a logical conclusion that he is a cult leader. His followers do not allow any criticism of him, and they label those who question his policies racists if we point out O's obvious lack of experience.

He's like a mullah, leading the willfully ignorant masses. Some Obama followers have legitimate arguments and suportive statements for him. But most of them are just Bush and Republican hating automatons who are following Moveon.org's flavor of the month, the "Anyone but a Republican" crowd. No intelligence, no support...just cliches and insults.

He's just a smooth-talking politician loved by about half of the people.... for now. His lack of depth shows a little more every day. Some still expect him to pay their mortgage and buy their gasoline, some are just star stricken, and others really believe in what he's trying to do. Eventually his star will fade, reality will set in, and we will see what he really is..... for better or worse.

You've just described the entire eight years of the Bush/Cheney administration. All you doomsayers need to take your aluminum foil elephant ears off, accept the paradigm shift that was our democratic election and join the majority of us living in REALITY.

I don't think he's a cult leader. I question everything he says and does, and that includes his sanity. He's not untouchable. Sooner or later he will be thrown out of office. And as to punishing those who leave the group, he's doing this to people who didn't belong in the first place so WTF. Get him out of office so we can all get on with our lives.

Sure seems that way. All the signs are there. Charismatic leader that says nothing while promising everything, radical agenda that goes against current society, claims of building a new bright and shining world, blind followers that abandon all common sense to be a part of the dream...

Sounds like a cult to me...

Nobama is just a person that was elected on his charisma and personality and still is just not qualified to be POTUS !
Sad that this man is so inexperienced in matters of life and business acumen to be in charge of making any important decisions for 300 milion persons. Nobama has exhibited no true leadership ability yet. When he does something impressive, I will be impressed ! I believe that Nobama is neither a cult leader or socialist.

He's not a cult leader. He's Oprah Winfrey's personal hand puppet. She owns him. As for his followers, they're akin to the followers of the Rev. Jim Jones. And the result will be the same.
