Barack Obama's political career boasts a long list of firsts. He is the first presumptive presidential nominee to be a native of Hawaii and the president of the Harvard Law Review. He's also the first candidate with more than 1 million contributors.

Obama, an Illinois senator, is the first presumptive presidential nominee in modern times to have a father who wasn't a U.S. citizen, the first to earn an undergraduate degree from Columbia University in New York and the first to have attended Occidental College in Los Angeles.
``Obama's nomination would be historic in almost every respect that you can think of,'' said presidential historian Michael Beschloss.
Obama has also chalked up many near-firsts in the race for the White House. He is the fourth Illinois elected official to clinch a party presidential nomination; if elected he would be the first since Abraham Lincoln. Ronald Reagan was born in Illinois and was governor of California. Obama is the only first-term senator to lead a major party since Warren Harding in 1920.
No presidential nominee since Republican Wendell Willkie was so unknown to the American public and political establishment just a few years before he ran for president. Republicans recruited Willkie, a low-profile utilities executive, to run against two-term incumbent Franklin Roosevelt in 1940.

Yes, I would agree: FIRST in radicalism, FIRST in extremism, FIRST in liberalism, FIRST in socialism, FIRST in American hate, FIRST in racism, FIRST in inexperience, FIRST in military-hating, FIRST in defense-hating, FIRST in anti-Americanism, FIRST in anti-Constitutionalism, FIRST in enemy-pandering, FIRST in....well the list is just too long.
Yes, he is certain tops in FIRSTS.
Don’t forget, he’s also the first candidate to visit all 57 states.
I should e-mail the author of this fluff piece to just get a room, pull out a lot of Obama pictures and “enjoy herself”.
From top to bottom, it was a love poem to Hussein. Sheesh, wipe the drool of your computer, sister.
You left out FIRST Muslim candidate.
FIRST disciple of Saul Alinsky, FIRST Marxist, FIRST convert from Islam ...
And may his fate be exactly the same as Mr. Willkie's was in November.
obasm:
The pleasure that a liberal-leaning journalist gets when writing a fawning story about U.S. Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL). An “obasm” is a story so gushy and so fluffy, bereft of objectivity, that one imagines having to clean up after the writer with a mop and bucket.
A MAJOR barf alert.
“Obama is the only presidential nominee in modern times whose father wasn’t American. The parents of Michael Dukakis, the Democratic nominee in 1988, were Greek immigrants who became naturalized U.S. citizens.”
Isn’t is interesting to note that the author deliberately forgot to include the first to be raised as a Muslim. The first to belong to a black-liberation church. etc..
Maybe he’s a black Rudolph Valentino, only one that ever swooned em like this gal swoons. He is also the only closet Muslim to run for U S President.
btt
More vowels in name ...
I speculate that if a Hawaiian separatist read this column they will be very angry that Obama is called a “Native” of Hawaii.
One must also remember that President Bush was the first President with a MBA. However I wouldn’t be surprised if the writer thinks that OUR President is a moron.
Maybe that qualifies him for being in the Guinness World Records, but NOT in the White House.
No, he didn't go to ALL the states, just 57 of them. Remember, he didn't go to Alaska.
Right. He did go to the great 54th State of Spalaska. I always mix those two up.
It is also first time when media insist that political views and connections of the presidential candidate are irrelevant for the job of Presidency.
Well....he’s not the first self-important prat, that’s for certain.
Or Hawaii and Cuba
The first to have parents who weren’t legally married.
He's also the first to routinely flip off his skank of a wife in public. Not that she doesn't deserve to be flipped off. I'm just sayin'.
Even though his Mother was a white American, since his Father was born in Africa, he can factually claim that he is in fact the first African American Presidential candidate (sorry Al and Jesse).
This Obama guy is not black. The only connection he has with American blacks is that his skin is the same color and his ancestors likely sold the ancestors of the American blacks he pretends to be like.
Obama is a fake and a fraud. He pretends to be something he is not. He lies.


Those wild eyed people represent the millions of Americans raised in the government day-care and indoctrination centers we call public schools who did not have, or would not listen to, parents and others who tried to counterweight the garbage they heard at school...who have been raised on 60 second sound bite time spans and know no better.
You have other tens of millions on the dole who will vote for him regardless of position because he promises to keep pilfering the public largess for them.
Still othes of millions will vote for him simply because he is black.
Other millions will vote for him because they know exactly who he is and what he represents and agree with his anti-American positions.
The first three are all what is termed, useful idiots, a term coined by Lenin for the dupes he got to support him.
Against this it is left to us to educate, arouse, and amass the tens of millions of Americans who understand and hold fast to the foundational principles our constitutional republic rests upon...many of them the bitter, rural Americans clinging to their guns and religion that Obama so arrogantly spoke of.
Finally, note this comparison:

Barack Hussein Obama is the apex of the hate-America, domestic enemy in this country. His election as president would be the greatest coup any enemy has ever scored against this country and could easily lead to the worst, horrific disaster in our nation's history.
First Muslim Manchurian Candidate endorsed by our terrorist enemies, Al Qaeda, Hamas, Hezbollah, .....
This election is a national disgrace; our forefathers are turning in their graves.
Damn, I wish they'd get that straight!
We're all gonna have the dry heaves by November.

The first to show us why Che Guevara had to grow hair like a filthy hippie to hide the size of his ears?
You beat me too it, that was exactly what I was going to say.
OMG is that new trailor for upcoming Godzilla movie LOL!
I am sick to my stomach everytime I think we could have a President that is friends with our enemy.
I just flipped over to Lifetime during their “Army Wives” weekend marathon and who appears? Wonder boy Barry himself, complete with American flag and CHANGE sign in the background, with a message to Army Wives everywhere. Will there be no end to it!
BTW, I thought we were forbidden to talk about B hussein O's ears!
I thought he was an African-American. Is he an African-American-Hawaian?
Now I'm confused. What do Germans call African-Americans born in Germany?
He’s not first in military hating. That belongs to the clintons.
But the rest is true.
And more.
First to destroy the U.S. without a weapon...First to make ANYTHING said on the internet punishable by fine/jail if its a word against a black person/liberal...
ROFLMAO!
No, just forbidden to mention his sweet wife or the color of his teeth . . . er, skin.
And the media love affair builds....
B.O. HUSSEIN is the FIRST MUSLIM to run for President.
B.O. HUSSEIN is the FIRST ARAB to run for President.
B.O. HUSSEIN is NOT the FIRST BLACK to run for President.
B.O. HUSSEIN is 50% White, 43.5% Arab, 6.5% Black.
B.O. HUSSEIN is the FIRST Son of a Polygamist to ron for
President.
And his MIDDLE name! I'm pretty sure I'm remembering him whining about those making fun of his ears...way back in the early days of the campaign. ;*)
Did he get to Franklin?
He’s also the first far left rabid dog socialist to get this close to the white house in our short history! People are being fooled BIG TIME by him and his thinking!
As for Obama, I don't think he got there. He was heard to remark, "Franklin my dear, I don't give a damn."
Personally I think that the term African-American is a stupid term anyway especially in referring to Barack Obama. Is Obama a Dual Citizen, not born here, or is he a Citizen of the USA? In order to become President, one must be American not African-American.
I Still find it funny that Jesse Jackson coined the term, supposedly, around the time he ran for President. So if I was Russian-American would I be able to run, even if the hyphenated term sounds like I wasn’t born here, especially in the proper terminology?
What one must also wonder is what if Obama was born in one of those island countries where people have very dark skin but are not African? Are they Carribbean-African-Americans?
In Addition:
B.O. HUSSEIN is the FIRST Bozo to run for President.
B.O. HUSSEIN is the FIRST Ding Dong to run for President.
B.O. HUSSEIN is the FIRST to call his Grandmother a Racist.
B.O. HUSSEIN is the FIRST ANTIAMERICAN to run for President.
B.O. HUSSEIN is the FIRST Really Terrible Candidate to run
for President.
Well maybe John F***ing Kerry (alias: LURCH, HANOI JOHNNY)may have been equally Terrible!!
The media is trying to make us thick Americans understand-Obama is The Way, The One, The Alpha, The Omega-The Obamassiah. Finally a gospel in which they can believe, apparently. They sure never believed in the Christian one, they mocked and ridiculed it. Christians were dim and unevolved for believing.
I’m torn between wondering if this getting absurd or scary.
