JERUSALEM – Sen. Barack Obama employed and continues to employ senior staffers who belong to the Nation of Islam, and the presidential candidate has some "worrying" ties to the controversial group headed by Louis Farrakhan, a former key Obama insider told WND.
The former insider, who spoke on condition of anonymity, expressed particular concerned that Obama employed at least two Nation members in his early days as a state senator, when his office was staffed by only a handful of workers.
**SNIP**
The former insider confirmed Obama is directly aware of the Nation of Islam members on his staff.
"A key constituency for Obama was Hyde Park, where Farrakhan lives. To be successful politically in that area, you need to be involved with Farrakhan, since he's a strong power in the district," said the former insider.
The former insider identified early employees of Obama as Nation of Islam members, including Jennifer Mason, who still works in Obama's Chicago Senate office as director of constituency services – a key community liaison position.
Also, Cynthia K. Miller, whom the former insider identified as a Nation of Islam activist, served Obama in his early state Senate days and later as treasurer for his U.S. senatorial campaign.
Miller was also a paid consultant in 2003 and 2004, according to financial documents obtained by WND. She currently runs a Chicago real estate firm.
The former insider said Obama asked indicted Chicago businessman and Obama financier Tony Rezko to get his treasurer, Miller, a state government job with Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich.

As the antichrist inches closer to domination...
Exactly
This sumb*tch may actually be the anti-Christ.
I wouldn’t doubt it ... what sort of total imbecile would vote for this clown.
Barry, Barry
He’s our man!
If He can’t do it,
Farra-Khan!
This will not phase Obama’s supporters. They are already in a trance.

Hey, all you white liberal Obama lovers, racism is wrong no matter the source. Or are you so stupid you can’t transfer universal ideas and apply it to different groups of people?
America is looking at some really dangerous times if the black racists get into the White House.
Obama in the debates wearing a bow tie?
Obama has a pretty close circle protecting him. I fell the only way that veneer is going to be cracked is from the inside. This is a move in that direction. I’m waiting for one who has the real goods on him (and his wife) to turn....with video footage...
I work for a company full of Obama disciples, it is miserable. They can twist anything and everything.
At a lunch meeting on Monday they got to talking about Rev.Wright and church. They went on to say that there was nothing wrong with what he said and it was a good thing that black people had a place to vent against us white people. The topper was that they then accused white christian churches of being hateful as well to others who don’t believe their doctrine, even though they all admitted to not going to any church. I thought I was going to blow a gasket. I did manage to come back at them, laryngitis and all and once challenged we changed the subject back to work.
I am seriously looking for another job right now. I cannot work with these people anymore. They are the most ignorant group I have EVER been around. All educated, upper middle class and think they know everything. My teenagers and their friends have more sense then these idiots. I dread going to work today.
BTTT
I noticed some big black guys in red jackets in the crowd during his speech, wondered of they were ‘The Fruit’.
