(FReep this poll) Andrew Breitbart ‘bombshell’ video from Barack Obama’s college days released
New York Daily News ^ | March 8, 2012

Posted on 03/08/2012 9:30:18 AM PST by AtlasStalled

The 1991 video shows a younger Obama, then president of the Harvard Law Review, speaking at a peaceful, racial equality rally led by professor Derrick Bell.

The event was in support of Bell, who was angry over Harvard's failure to offer tenure to black professors.

Obama is seen embracing Bell, described by Pollak as the "Jeremiah Wright of academia."

What do you think of the video? It will hurt Obama and propels the notion that he's a radical. 22%

What a joke. Nothing note-worthy happens in the video. 72%

I don't know. 5%

Sorry, but if Jeremiah Wright, Bill Ayers, and all Obama’s hidden history didn’t make an impression with the 53% who voted for him, him publicly promoting another loser-leftist 20 years ago certainly won’t.

I hope there is more as this is not quite what I was expecting. It would be good to get the Rashidi Kahlidi tape.

Nothing about Obama’s past matters or else he never would have been elected.

But Democrats will be delighted to have as many conservatives as possible hopping down this bunny trail because they can paint them as extremists and it keeps the focus off the bulls eye which should be the economy.

The premise of the question is wrong. Andrew Breitbart said that he had videoS of Obama’s college days. That’s plural. Clearly, the MSM didn’t learn anything from the earlier info releases from Breitbart. Even in death, he’s playing with them.

Hey, at least it proves he was actually ON the Harvard campus (at least once).

Prior to this video I was not even sure whether to believe THAT...

Agreed.

Obama’s acolytes either do not care about his past, or are actually IMPRESSED by his radicalism.

I hope breitbart had more than this. Seriously, in obama’s book he admitted he favored the commie extremists in academia.

No one cares outside of us. Plus Obama can say he changed and that is good enough for the liberal media.

If the people Andrew Beitbart left behind are as smart as Breitbart himself, this is just the opening shot.

Andrew usually opened an issue with something the opposition jumped on as weak and meaningless.

Then - he released the rest of the story and knocked them back on their heels.

The suggestion is that leftists might be shocked by leftist behavior.

They aren’t.

Better stick to bashing his policies and anti-Constitutional behavior.

Seeking the sensational is a waste of time.

Agreed, the video itself isn't such a big deal, the media reaction to its release is the real issue in my opinion.

This video just adds more to the documentation of Obama as a leftist radical. But, sadly, it is not up to the threshold of a “bobshell,” unless there are more parts yet to aire showing him doing violent or illegal things, or smoking dope and doing crack, or something like that.

He had leftist, maxisitic radical friends his whole life and he embraced it.

This video further punctuates that, along with his associations with Frank Davis, Bill Ayers, Tony Rezko, Jeremiah Wright, Farakahn, his cousin Raila Ordinga, and now Errick Bell.

I’m sure there are a lot more.

His own Marjiuana and Cocane and other hard drug use, hsi admitted disdain for the US Constitution and his admitted racism.

This man is and always has been a divider and one who despises America. The news nedia has willfully let all of this and more (like his ties to Acorn and the housing crash, his voting record, and his experience/affair with Sinclair) simply slide and go unreported, or barely touched upon.

It’s not over yet. They are building the case drip by drip. They didn’t show the video of what Derrick Bell actually said during the speech but they will.
First you make the connection and then you slam that connection.

Dots need to be connected. It needs to be shown point for point how “this” belief has been implemented by “that” policy or czar or statement currently and also where it ultimately goes and how it hurts those who otherwise just brush it off. People seem to only care when something hits them directly.

If they want to have an effect, they need to release it all at once. They are already losing when it comes to countering the racial diversity rally description.

What we must do is think very carefully about this.

Visual links that can be seen with the naked eye are the most powerful.

In 2008, the Obama-Wright link was not visual, it was verbal.

See? (A picture is worth how many words?)
