Wikipedia claims, "A cult of personality arises when a country's leader uses mass media to create an idealized and heroic public image, often through unquestioning flattery and praise."

As this typically occurs in a totalitarian nation, that country's ruler, with complete control of the media, is able to mandate what images of him or herself are being disseminated thereby furthering his cult-like status.

As Barack Obama did not become president until January 20 of this year, it seems irrefutable that his cult of personality was bestowed upon him by so-called journalists who in order to help him get elected abdicated their solemn responsibility to report the truth to the American people.
 
Has this happened before .. say in the last 8 years?
Obviously not. :blink:

Never recalled paintings of bush naked on a unicorn, an Obama girl equivalent or "Bush Girl", news talking heads getting tingles up their legs, and ABC wasn't the All Bush Channel like it is now, All Barack Channel.

Everyone stood in line to kick trip Bush up and then blamed him for falling.

Where were you in the past 8 years?
