Retraction

In my last post I wrote the following:

"The Constitution allows for many things, but what it does not allow is the most revealing. The so-called Founders did not allow for economic freedom. While political freedom is supposedly a cornerstone of the document, the distribution of wealth is not even mentioned. While many believed that the new Constitution gave them liberty, it instead fitted them with the shackles of hypocrisy."
~Barack Obama in his thesis, "Aristocracy Reborn", at Columbia University.

After further research, I discovered that the original source for this quote was a satire peace in a blog. Barack Obama did not write this.
