Malcolm X, Barack Obama, and Oginga Odinga
Bay View National Black Newspaper ^ | Feb. 22, 2009 | Norman (Otis) Richmond

Posted on 02/17/2010 2:12:23 AM PST by BIOCHEMKY

El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz (Malcolm X) was assassinated 44 years ago, on Feb. 21, 1965, because of his attempt to internationalize the African American struggle for self-determination.

Malcolm would have been 84 years old on May 19, 2009. Africans in New York City have made a pilgrimage to Malcolm’s gravesite every year since Feb. 21, 1966. While it is unlikely that U.S. President Barack Obama will acknowledge Malcolm’s joining the ancestors, people from Cape Town to Nova Scotia and Brazil to Brixton definitely will.

Unlike other U.S. presidents, President Obama knows who Malcolm was and what he stands for. Like many males with African roots, President Obama was moved by Malcolm’s life story. A cursory reading of his autobiography, “Dreams from My Father,” will prove this point.

President Obama is truly an African American; parts of his roots are with the Luo people in East Africa. The Luo are an ethnic group in Kenya, Eastern Uganda and Northern Tanzania. The Luo are the third largest ethnic group (13 percent) in Kenya, after the Kikuyu (20 percent) and the Luhya (17 percent). The Luo and the Kikuyu inherited the bulk of political power in the first years following Kenya’s independence in 1963.

When Malcolm visited Africa in 1964, he visited Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania. It was during that trip that he met with Kenyan President Jomo Kenyatta, Ugandan President Dr. Milton Obote, and President Julius K. Nyerere and Muhammad Babu of Tanzania. Babu, Malcolm and Leroi Jones (now Amiri Baraka) held a meeting during this period in New York City. Malcolm talked about meeting President Kenyatta. Malcolm, however, was also aware of Kenya’s Oginga Odinga.

RE: “Tony Preckwinkle”

Did you try the search? I did just now and apparently the first name is spelled “Toni”.

“Making It: How Chicago shaped Obama”
by Ryan Lizza

http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2008/07/21/080721fa_fact_lizza?currentPage=all

Toni Preckwinkle was Barak Obama’s alderman (alderwoman) in 1995 Chicago. She had to give her okay for Obama to throw his hat in the ring the first time he ran for elected office, for Illinois state congressman.

[. . .these citizens are ALSO getting VERY ANGRY at Obama’s inaction toward improving their plight.]

Indeed. Soviet radio would broadcast inflated farm production figures to convince the people that collectivization was working. The joke was: “If you need milk, take your pail to the radio.”

While the whites sit back and fight among themselves, there are actually people such as REV Manning who see the EVIL within Obama and behind Obama.

November 2010 is a must win situation for the GOP (aka Conservatives). This spoiled Marxist manchild has purposely taken this country down the wrong economic track for one reason and one reason only — to destroy Capitalism and then working toward destroying our republic by chipping away at our Constitution.

This isn't a game, these people are for real and they are vying for total power and to turn the US into a third world nation. They are like a parasite that latches onto it's prey and will not stop until the life is stripped out of the prey the parasite had attached itself too.

What we see here is certain ones (elitist) with money using Marxist minded people within communities to place their chosen ones in political office while others sit back and do not vote because for some reason they do not believe voting matters. Understand this is not only about Federal Elections, this is about local and state elections, also.

Let's put it this way: it's more likely that you and I don't really exist. That we are fictional characters in a dream someone is having.
