I just read “Raven” by Tim Reiterman. It amazed me that so many people were duped by Jim Jones’ communist/socialist rhetoric as to give up everything to fuel his “socialist paradise”. I believe that the followers fell into two basic camps:those that were truly deluded into thinking he was their socialist god, or those whose pride would not let them admit that they were wrong. We are on the same path in this country today.

I’ve thought since the first time I saw Obama speak that he was Jim Jones in different skin.

The similarities in philosophy, speaking style and mannerisms are so similar I’d bet Obama has watched video of Jones and emulated him.
