Even in the light of his association with Ayers; his "blank slate" past which looks like it is right out of Tom Clancy's description of a sleeper agent; his appointing people (*without* Senate oversight, thank you very much) who openly praise *MAO* (a greater killer than Stalin)?

Please re-consider.

Cheers!

There is a further elaboration in post #43.

As yet, 0bama has not come close to FDR, whose NRA was the harbinger of all the ills we've had to endure since. Just ten years before I was born, this liberal icon sent 110,000 loyal Americans to concentration camps. His OSS, State Department, and Treasury were infested with Communists -- some of whom we will never know. Their machinations turned hundreds of millions over to the tender mercies of Mao, and our nuclear secrets to our greatest Enemy. His administration was considered so untrustworthy that military intelligence did not reveal -- to the President of the United States -- that we had broken the Soviets' codes.

I'm not counseling against vigilance. But 0bama has some way to go before he even becomes Roosevelt, let alone Hitler.
