Can Someone Help Me Figure Out This Dream I Had...
...Obama was walking on a hard floor in his porous tennis shoes, with an inch or so of cold water covering the area. :shrug: ?

11. Hey, if your dream had Obama walking through the water...
...and then the water parting and forming a wall to his left and his right as he passed through on dry land -- would the meaning of the dream be that Obama was going to win almost all of the Jewish vote?

:rofl:

7. Are you thinking the tennis shoes are squeaking?
You're worried they'll try to say it's a squeaker and try to steal it?

9. dream symbols

Shoes: Shoe dreams deal with walking certain paths in our lives. If you are wearing tight Shoes, the road you are traveling is hard, and much sorrow is involved. Comfortable Shoes indicate you are in a good place in your life and success is around the corner. Buying Shoes indicates you still have quite a distance to travel until you reach your goals. Dirty, worn-down Shoes encourages us to examine our spiritual walk, or asks us to take a walk of faith.

Water: Dream symbol meaning of Water deals with cleansing and emotional stirrings. If the Water is murky in your dream, this is a warning not to get involved in new endeavors. If the Water is clear, success is coming your way. Seeing yourself in Water's reflection means that you aren't being fully honest with yourself. When you contemplate your dream of Water, keep in mind Water is a symbol of your emotional state.

Wading

To dream of wading in water, symbolizes your power and control over your emotions. Consider the depth and clarity of the water to determine how much power you have over circumstances and situations in your life.

10. I take it that Obama was walking in the water and not on it.
the hard floor was it wood or another material? How did you know the water was cold? Was it commented on or did you feel it? What was Obama's reaction to the water and other things in the dream?

Here are several takes. The shoes are porous so they would absorb the water, the water is cold so that would make him having 'cold feet.'

The floor is 'hard' and the water is 'cold'. He is walking through the water and his shoes would give 'no protection'. If he continues to walk through the water, without any reaction it could mean that he is going to have to have 'hard' times and have to withstand 'coldness' from his surroundings with 'no protection' from those he depends on.

Other meanings could come from the answers to the questions I asked above. What we feel in a dream is often more important than what we see.

13. I agree with Post #10.
When a dream is puzzling I always rely on how I feel in a it. But I have another take on the meaning of your dream, though you are the only one who can best interpret it.

To me, the hard floor means Obama is well grounded though things underfoot are fluid and in flux, and cold meaning that current conditions are not good. Even though he is protected (tennis shoes), the shoes are not ideal for dealing with cold, wet conditions so he may not be completely prepared. But since he is wearing tennis shoes, to me, it means that he is relaxed and ready to play and/or rumble. I remember that people who know him say he is a fierce competitor in the game of basketball but manages to always keep cool and play hard, just as we've seen him run his campaign.

Anyway, IMHO, if it were my dream, I think that even though you know Obama is a well grounded man and he wins the presidency, you're worried that he may not be totally prepared or able to fix the myriad of problems created in the country these past 8 years.
