I’m watching CNN?  President Obama is on a Segway (new tech moving  2-wheeled form of transportation) and it has a tiny explosion. He stays on and it flips over in a complete circle, a loop.  He has no helmet on and he is bloody and thrown down on the ground. He gets back on and goes a block or two to where congressmen are gathered for a meeting on the lawn.   He appears bloody and is crawling in on the ground (off the Segway?) and then he talks to them. There is no scenery around him during the looping time. I then hunt for a channel on TV for Mom? to see.  I try several news channels around 5 o’clock news time and can’t find anything. Well…I remember this as seeing it in person in the beginning of the dream, not on TV.  I woke up from this as though from a mild nightmare (I’m not totally wiped out emotionally, but it is shocking). No one else causes him harm. It occurred while he was on the Segway, looking around.

The dreamer added several comments about the details of the dream and what it means to her:

“There are contradictions between Obama staying on the Segway and then being off the Segway, on the ground.  In my reduced memory version he stays on throughout.

 ”I use (? ) whenever I am uncertain that I have the correct word or person.

 ”My feelings for Obama are very strong and positive.  I had and have great hope for him to lead us thru these huge crises and I trust that he will.   I know he is encountering opposition and various political battles along the way.  I hope he doesn’t get killed (assassinated).”

 [In response to a question about possible social metaphors:]

 ”Yes, the dream does reflect Obama’s recent struggles with health care.”

 [In response to a question about possible personal metaphors:]

“I was a country kid – lived in a fruit orchard, picked a lot of fruit, lots of hard physical labor, etc in Ohio.    I was always amazed with how the fruit (few pieces) would stay in the basket when you spun it around in a circle, centrifugal force (flipping it over fast).   That is what Obama did on this Segway; didn’t fall out. So, in spite of great dizzying spinning forces, he’ll survive.”
