US election: 'When Your Name Is Barack Hussein Obama, Getting Elected Is Difficult' Prejudice among some American voters will make it difficult for President Barack Obama to win re-election, he has suggested.
The remarks were made on ABC's The View By Jon Swaine 15 May 2012
Asked during a television interview how close he expected the result of November's presidential election to be, Mr Obama said: "When your name is Barack Obama, it's always tight". After a host noted that his full name was "Barack Hussein Obama," he repeated this twice, stressing the middle name that has led conspiracy theorists to claim erroneously that he is secretly Muslim.
The remarks, made on ABC's The View, appeared to be a rare admission by Mr Obama that four years after he became the first black US president, his ethnicity continues to repel some American voters.
Asked "why do you say that now, after four years?" Mr Obama appeared to gather his thoughts and said: "I think it's going to be tight because the fact of the matter is, the country has gone through a very difficult time the worst financial crisis, the worst economic crisis, since the 1930s."

According to Jeremiah Wright in his interviews for the book The Amateur, Obama came to him with a Muslim background and asking for help because he didn't know who he was. The interviewer asked Wright if he was able to convert Barry to Christianity. Wright said he wouldn't go that far but that he taught him enough not to feel too uncomfortable still holding on to his Muslim heritage.
Important keywords there are "According to Jeremiah Wright", because, in reality, it's BS. Wright's Black Liberation Theology is about communism and revolution. It's an entirely bogus religion concocted by communists decades ago. Farrakhan's so-called "Nation of Islam" is another "Black Liberation" communist front movement. Farrakhan and Wright are very good friends.
Told you!
Obama was steeped in Islam but knew nothing about Christianity, Klein says.
Klein asked Wright if he converted Obama from being a Muslim into a Christian.
He said, I dont know about that. but I can tell you that I made it easy for him to come to an understanding of who Jesus Christ is and not feel that he was turning his back on his Islamic friends and his Islamic traditions and his understanding of Islam, Klein says.

Both are communists. They don't truly believe in religion, ANY religion. They just use religion (phony, concocted religions) as a means of advancing their communist ideology. That's what Black Liberation Theology is all about. Communists need to lie through their teeth in order to get people to listen to them. They can never be honest about who and what they are, and what they want to do to this country.
