No matter how much you dislike Obama, I don't think shooting him or even talking about shooting him is appropriate. Not only will it do absolutely no good, but most of the time it is BS anyway.
Lets just say that god forbid he does get assassinated, then so what, we will just get someone equally as bad in office, only it will give the government a very good excuse to clamp down more. If people haven't realized by now that it really isn't up to us who gets elected to the nation's highest public office, then they clearly aren't capable of viable plan to terminate the current office of President.

Thing is, there are subfactions within the very PTB too, with different agendas. There is a battle playing out along those very lines right now, and most people don't even realize it. Some subfactions are worse than others. And sometimes to beat the beast you must support one to beat another more evil one. Temporarily. Use their own differences to get what you want (out of Afghanistan, for example) then reset the game and go on to the next battle.

Actually, the CFR sees no point in it at the moment. So do many top advisors who are not of the PNAC/neocon/Zionist bent. The view that it would be catastrophic to this nation to get further entrenched in the ME.
The whole diversion in N. Korea is a countermove on the chessboard. Follow Clinton. She's CFR. So is Obama. This is the same cycle we saw in 2007, by the way, when the balance of power was slightly tipped the other way.
Just a theory and off topic. Sorry. Oh and Ron Paul is a non-interventionalist and would bring our troops home from everywhere.
