Debbie usually gets it right PING!!
bump.
Google will scrub all references by tonight.
And it’s great that everyone who’s already decided to vote against Obama will see this. I doubt anyone else will.
One ray of hope is I have a liberal friend from New Jersey...voted for Gore and Kerry, hates Obama with a passion.
Unless I have a reading comprehension problem, this article does not claim Obam is a muslim - it says he was an organizer, and not even the black nationalist type!
It needs a screen shot save.

John Ayers (Bill’s Brother) and Michelle Obama work together and play together.
Obama is part of the One World Order that is now upon us and manifesting itself in America. We must fall into place with the European Union to bring all this about. It’s a biblical prophecy and must come to past. I’ve just accepted it as signs of the Last Days, and am so looking forward to the return of Christ to end the kingdoms of this world.
ORGANIZING AND ISLAM
Organizing in neighborhoods has taken two paths that reflect historic dichotomy between integrationist and nationalist strategies. Many top conununity leaders collaborate on urban issues through city’s grasgroots network, forging multi-racial coalitions, while others take black nationalist approach, looking only within the African-American community for leadership and resources.
In first category are...Barack Obama
Now, about the spelling...
I had posted this a week or so ago while searching on New Party stuff. (post 138 in this thread: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2100378/posts?q=1&;page=101) Having re-read it a few times since then I’m not sure if it’s anything incriminating.

To remedy the problem of racial profiling in Illinois, the ACLU is endorsing a proposal, Senate Bill 1324 filed last week by state Senator Barack Obama (D-Chicago), requiring all law enforcement agencies in the state to gather and report data about the race and ethnicity of all motorists they stop for traffic violations - whether police issue a citation or warning. The information about traffic stops would be collected at the county level and reported to the Illinois Secretary of State, whose office will analyze the data for trends and make a report about evidence of racial profiling to the General Assembly.

Leader inspires black community
1/19/98
From Correspondent Lisa Price CHICAGO (CNN) -- Barack Obama is many things. He's a state senator, a professor of civil rights law at the University of Chicago, an attorney, a community activist, and an author. "I think that I got a wonderful opportunity," he said, "here to work with a whole range of people, and try to make for a better country."
Obama is the son of a Kenyan father and midwestern mother, and wants to rebuild leadership in the African American community, but he believes the challenge must be shouldered by many, not just a few. He said, "I think there's a sense that unless there is a Messiah out there for African Americans, that somehow we can't solve our problems and I think that's actually a mistake."
Obama says leadership responsibilities fall upon every member of the community. "I also believe the mother who is working full time but still makes, still takes the time to go to a school, pick up a report card, make sure her child is doing homework, she's exhibiting leadership." Obama says he's made it his life's work to help lead those in his community, into a position where they themselves can lead others, and he's only 35 years old. "I think my job," he said, "as one leader among many, is to encourage, and train, and facilitate that kind of leadership among ordinary people."
