“We’ve got a lot on our plate,” President Barack Obama told 60 Minutes in March.
Isn’t that the truth.
The White House is scrambling wildly to try to stimulate a mortally sick economy back to health by putting it deeper into debt. Its ad hoc efforts have driven many even faithful supporters of the new president to doubt his ability to turn the situation around. They have much cause for alarm.
But almost overlooked amid the destruction that the government’s plans are wreaking on the American dollar and the national economy are the dangers encroaching from outside the country. Realizing that America is profoundly weakened by domestic economic problems, opportunistic predators are seizing the chance to lash out at the world’s most prosperous and powerful country.
This is history in the making. Not the good kind of history. More like Nero-fiddling-while-Rome-burned history.
The kind of history we are seeing now is an empire in terminal and rapid decline. Besieged by problems within, facing enemies without, the greatest single nation in history is disintegrating like Rome and dozens of other empires before it.

Landslide poll shows American opinion on first lady as future president

![]() First Lady Michelle Obama |
"Mark my words, Michelle Obama will run for president in 2020 or 2024."
So says William J. O'Reilly, an iReporter featured on the CNN website.
The news website also launched a poll on its homepage, asking, "Should Michelle Obama run for president in 2020?"
At press time for this article, with 200,000 votes tallied in the unscientific poll, 83 percent of respondents answered no, with a ratio of over 165,000 against the idea to only 35,000 in favor.
O'Reilly draws a parallel in his video editorial between the Obamas and the "Camelot" years of John and Jackie Kennedy, but points out that Michelle is no Jackie.
"While Michelle Obama is received as not only a fashion icon and also presidential arm candy – as was Jackie Kennedy – there is a difference," opines O'Reilly. "Michelle Obama, with her bearing, with her intelligence, with her degrees from Princeton and from Harvard Law School – added to that, Hillary Clinton's precedent in seeking and gaining political office – mark my words, Michelle Obama will run for president."

President's mail worker claims letter campaign 1 of largest in 35 years

© 2009 WorldNetDaily
The White House mail office has confirmed it received a "deluge" of as many as 2.25 million red envelopes symbolizing the empty promise of lives snuffed out in abortion in a massive campaign that was larger than most White House mailing movements in the last 35 years.
White House mail worker "Steve" has handled letters for 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. for more than three decades. Every single package and letter destined for the White House goes through his office.
Asked if he has seen a flood of red envelopes bound for the White House, Steve chuckled.
"Uh, yes," he said emphatically. "Believe me, they made it here."
Steve said while Obama has been occupied in Europe, his administration has noticed millions of red envelopes on behalf of aborted children.
"Quite frankly, there was definitely a deluge of mail coming through," he laughed. "I had to handle them all."
"I've been here 35 years, so I've seen presidents come and go," Steve told WND. "This campaign ranks up there with the big ones."
The Red Envelope Project is an idea sparked in the mind and prayers of a Massachusetts man, Christ Otto, who envisioned in January thousands of red envelopes sent to the White House, a visual expression of moral outrage over the president's position on abortion.

Saudis also dismayed by Obama's seeming tolerance of nuclear Iran
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report
April 7, 2009, 10:15 AM (GMT+02:00)
A chilly encounter
President Barack Obama's declaration in the Turkish parliament Monday, April 6, that the US is not at war with Islam provided cold comfort in Riyadh and Cairo, where his drastic policy shift of détente with Tehran, first revealed by DEBKA-Net-Weekly last month, is causing jitters.
The Financial Times' prediction that the US "may cede to Iran's nuclear ambition" only added to the unease in the Middle East at large.
On the sidelines of the G20 summit in London, Saudi King Abdullah made his views known in a face-to-face interview with the US president on April 2. The White House communiqué reported blandly: Obama and Abdullah discussed international cooperation regarding the global economy, regional political and security issues, and cooperation against terrorism.
Iran was not mentioned. However, according to DEBKAfile's Middle East sources, Abdullah took the US president sternly to task over his emerging policy on Iran, Syria and Iraq, accusing him to giving the Islamic Republic free rein for its nuclear, expansionist and terrorism-sponsoring Middle East policies.
Both parties tried to keep their abrasive encounter away from the public eye and their media, although the photo attached betrays its chilly atmosphere.
The Financial Times was the first Western mainstream publication to pick up on the new pro-Iran policy trend dominating Obama's Washington: "US officials are considering whether to accept Iran's pursuit of uranium enrichment… discussing whether the US will eventually have to accept Iran's insistence on carrying out the process."
The newspaper quoted Trita Parsi, president of the National Iranian American Council as warning: "The US may still have zero as its opening position [in its dialogue with Iran], while recognizing it may not be where things stand at the end of a potential agreement."
DEBKAfile's military sources fear that Tehran has been given a free run to perfect its ability to make bombs and warheads in the shortest possible time from the moment of decision.
Our sources report that the US president's two-day stay in Ankara and his words of peace towards the Muslim world were seen in Riyadh and Cairo as ignoring the most pressing concerns of the leading Muslim Arab powers of the region.
Israeli leaders have been less reticent about their concerns. President Shimon Peres pointed out to visiting US congressmen in Jerusalem Monday that Iran has hoodwinked the entire world in its drive for a nuclear bomb whose main target would be the Jewish state; Israel's population is short of adequate means of self-defense. Deputy Chief of Staff, Maj. Gen. Dan Harel warned that a nuclear-armed Iran would shield Middle East terror groups, so magnifying the threat to Israel manifold. But, he added, the IDF was fully capable of backing up any government decision to tackle this existential threat.
Prime minister Binyamin Netanyahu diplomatically praised President Obama for his renewed commitment to Israeli security, omitting mention of Iran in the same way as he ignored the US president's demand for a Palestinian state to rise alongside Israel in his speech to parliament in Ankara. Netanyahu commented that his new government is in the process of formulating its policies. This left him an opening to dispute administration polices when he arrives in Washington on May 3.

![]() Secretary of State Hillary Clinton |
NEW YORK – President Obama's appointment of Sen. Hillary Clinton – a perceived friend of Israel – to be secretary of state was a tactic to force a settlement with the Palestinians on the Jewish state, according to an assessment by one of the founders of the Weathermen terrorist organization
The former Weathermen leader, Mark Rudd, worked closely for years with Weathermen terrorist William Ayers, whose association with Obama has generated controversy for the president. Rudd still works with Ayers in a far-leftist organization, the Movement for a Democratic Society, which includes many former Weathermen members and communist and socialist activists.
As WND previously reported, Rudd also was a signatory to Progressives for Obama, a group of far-leftist activists, including former Weathermen members, who engaged in activism to help elect Obama.
In a recent interview with the Next Left Notes website, Rudd assesses Obama's first weeks in office. The Notes website is associated with the Movement for a Democratic Society, according to communist expert Trevor Loudon of the New Zeal blog.
Rudd stated Obama's appointment of Clinton was "strategic" to force Israel into accepting a deal with the Palestinians:
"(Some other appointments are) terrible at the top level, except maybe Hillary Clinton, whom I'm expecting to win a Nobel prize for forcing the Israelis to accept a settlement. Who but the nation's No. 1 shiksa (non-Jew), a certified lover of Israel, would the right wing accept to force the settlement? That was a strategic appointment."
The Obama administration supports Israeli-Palestinian talks aimed at creating a Palestinian state in the West Bank, Gaza Strip and eastern Jerusalem.

ARGENTINA EXPERIENCE - ECONOMIC COLLAPSE - PART 2
Posted: April 06, 2009
1:00 am Eastern
© 2009
Predictably today, Barack Obama is whining to the "international community" about North Korea's latest missile test, which can interpreted one of only two ways.
Either North Korea is attempting to develop intercontinental ballistic missiles to attack its enemies (including the U.S.) with nuclear warheads, or it plans to extort from the West economic aid for its hapless communist system.
Instead of complaining, Obama should be reversing his plans to slow or halt the development of anti-missile defense systems – both ground-based and space-based – and, next time North Korea fires a long-range missile into the sky, it should be shot down.
End of story. End of crisis.
Instead, what is Obama doing?
As usual, he is doing the unthinkable.
He is actually advocating the elimination of all nuclear weapons.
It's not surprising.
We all know Obama thinks weapons of all kinds, not the maniacs who use them without justification, are the real enemy of mankind.
Just as he seeks to eliminate nuclear weapons from the world, an unachievable and unrealistic goal for the foreseeable future, he also seeks to further restrict the sale and possession of firearms in his own country – despite America's proud tradition of protecting the unalienable right to self-defense in the Constitution.
In addition, Obama is actually putting the scrapping of missile defense on the table for negotiation, if only, by some miracle, Iran pledges to abandon its nuclear program, and refusing to allow new research into better and more reliable systems for the future against future enemies – such as North Korea and a world full of nuclear-armed terrorists.
It is as if Obama has a death wish for the United States. It is as if he is literally inviting a nuclear attack on his country in the future.
"As the only nuclear power to have used a nuclear weapon, the United States has a moral responsibility to act," Obama told a crowd yesterday in Prague. "We cannot succeed in this endeavor alone, but we can lead it."
That, my friends, is feigning weakness – not something you want to do in the face of North Korea's bellicose action this weekend.
Once again, Obama is pushing all the wrong buttons on national security matters – just like he does with the economy.

AMERICA HAS BEEN SOLD OUT FROM WITHIN
WHERE IS OSAMA BIN LADEN
NATO IS WEAKER THAN EVER
Already in part payment of its debts to China, the US government has handed over the Port of Long Beach (California), both ends of the Panama Canal, in excess of 22,000 US golf courses and de facto control of several major US banks, including the Federal Reserve. The collusion between the Communist government of China and the Obama White House was spelled out in stark terms in a 25-page document circulated to Heads of State and Heads of Government at the April 2009 G20 summit in London.
It detailed documented proof of the parts which Obama (personally), Geithner (personally) and Congress have played in top-end wire fraud, embezzlement and treason against the Constitution, the Republic and the American people. China is now fighting a losing battle in its attempts to retrieve every hard copy of that document. Queen Elizabeth II of England is hanging on to hers and the relationship between her and Obama is reported to be vitriolic. China regards the US military as being in disarray (true) and foresees no effective military opposition to its plans for a US takeover by stealth (false).
The major player here is the Chinese Communist government - not the old Chinese families such as the Taiwan-based Yis and the panglobal Mings. These families hold executive influence over the Chinese Green and Red secret societies which have six million members worldwide, including 100,000 professional martial arts assassins. These assassins could take out the top one hundred people in the Chinese and American governments before breakfast if that was the instruction given.
Doug Feith, John Yoo, William Haynes, Alberto Gonzales, Donald Rumsfeld, Dick Cheney and George Bush Jnr may soon be arrested and subjected to international legal action in Europe. Spain has started the ball rolling. The anti-torture momentum is public and powerful.

Proposed new powers called 'drastic federal intervention'

![]() Sen. John "Jay" Rockefeller, D-W.V. |
A pair of bills introduced in the U.S. Senate would grant the White House sweeping new powers to access private online data, regulate the cybersecurity industry and even shut down Internet traffic during a declared "cyber emergency."
Senate bills No. 773 and 778, introduced by Sen. Jay Rockefeller, D-W.V., are both part of what's being called the Cybersecurity Act of 2009, which would create a new Office of the National Cybersecurity Advisor, reportable directly to the president and charged with defending the country from cyber attack.
A working draft of the legislation obtained by an Internet privacy group also spells out plans to grant the Secretary of Commerce access to all privately owned information networks deemed to be critical to the nation's infrastructure "without regard to any provision of law, regulation, rule or policy restricting such access."
Privacy advocates and Internet experts have been quick to sound the alarm over the act's broadly drawn government powers.
"The cybersecurity threat is real," says Leslie Harris, president of the Center for Democracy and Technology, which obtained the draft of S.773, "but such a drastic federal intervention in private communications technology and networks could harm both security and privacy."
"The whole thing smells bad to me," writes Larry Seltzer in eWeek, an Internet and print news source on technology issues. "I don't like the chances of the government improving this situation by taking it over generally, and I definitely don't like the idea of politicizing this authority by putting it in the direct control of the president."

US, Japan, S. Korea, Russia fail to intercept North Korean ballistic rocket launch
DEBKAfile Special Report
April 5, 2009, 8:38 AM (GMT+02:00)
North Korean ballistic missile takes off unimpeded
Despite an international outcry, a North Korean long-range rocket lifted off from its coastal Musudan-ri launch pad early Sunday, March 5. Flying over Japan it appears to have splashed down in the Pacific Ocean. Although on high alert to intercept the launch, Tokyo admitted it missed its timeline twice.
DEBKAfile's military sources report that Pyongyang's defiance of stern warnings delivered another serious setback to US president Barack Obama in his management of foreign affairs. But most of all, North Korea showed Israel that it was dangerous to rely on Washington and the rest of the international community and their diplomacy to put a stop to Iran's drive for a nuclear weapon.
Obama failed earlier to persuade NATO leaders meeting in Strasbourg to send substantial extra forces to fight in Afghanistan – only 5,000 non-combat trained troops were pledged. France and Germany turned him down flat.
The North Korean ballistic launch, which may or may not have boosted a satellite into orbit, expanded the world's stock of nuclear warheads days after Obama's agreement with Russian president Dmitry Medvedev in London to start reducing this arsenal before the end of the year. Tehran is not far behind Pyongyang.
Iran and North Korea have worked together for many years on their nuclear programs, a collaboration which the international community never stopped. Indeed, three years ago, Syria was co-opted to the partnership.
DEBKAfile's military sources date the onset of the current crisis to Jan. 3, when Iran launched its first satellite Omid into space, boosted by a nuclear-capable ballistic rocket which placed all points on earth within range. Instead of declaring an emergency, US and Israeli officials were at pains to play down Tehran's achievement.
Only on March 25, did AMAN military intelligence cief Amos Yadlin admit to the Knesset foreign affairs and defense committee that Tehran now possessed missiles capable of delivering nuclear warheads.
Given their long collaboration, it should have been obvious that the data and experience gained from Tehran's launch would be flashed to North Korea. Our sources confirmed that North Korean technicians and scientists attended the Iranian liftoff.
After Pyongyang announced the dates bracketing its launch, the US deployed warships opposite North Korean shores armed with interceptors; Japan threatened to destroy any missile violating its airspace. Saturday, Russia announced its Far Eastern forces were on the ready and S-300 anti-missile systems in place for shooting the North Korean rocket down.
But when it came to the crunch, the US, Japan and Russia were deterred from trying to intercept the North Korean rocket. What did work was Pyongyang's warning that interception would be a casus belli. All that is left for now is to seek tougher sanctions against North Korea at the emergency UN Security Council session called by Japan for later Sunday, April 5 and lots of condemnation. Sanctions in the past have never had any effect on the North Korean dictator Kim Il-Jong. China will anyway not approve extreme measures, in the same way as it has blocked harsh sanctions against Iran. South Korea has placed its forces in a state of readiness but will not act without Washington.
Obama's response was an offer to go back to the six-party forum for negotiating North Korea's denuclearization.
The new US administration started off by espousing diplomacy for international conflicts, but in Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's debut trip to the Far East she obtained Beijing's consent to work with Washington on the economic crisis, but not on international strategic matters.

US Awards Iran Role as Military Partner, Sells Israel Short
DEBKAfile Excusive Analysis
April 4, 2009
Israeli chief of staff Lt. Gen. Gaby Ashkenazi
Only two weeks ago, Israel's chief of staff Lt. Gen. Gaby Ashkenazi, then visiting Washington, was denied interviews with US defense secretary Robert Gates and the chairman of the US chiefs of staff Adm. Mike Mullen. He cut short his visit after seeing national security adviser Gen. James Jones and Iran envoy Dennis Ross, lesser lights in terms of their direct influence on President Barack Obama.
Since then, the US president has decided the snub was ill-judged.
During 2008 and up until his exit from the White House, George W. Bush found Ashkenazi useful for conveying to the former prime minister Ehud Olmert and defense minister Ehud Barak his administration's strong objections to an Israeli military strike on Iran's nuclear sites. The US effort to hold Israel's hand brought Mullen and an array of top US generals calling at the chief of staff's Tel Aviv headquarters almost every ten days in the last months of 2008.
Mullen wanted to keep this effort afloat, but president Obama thought otherwise, which is why Ashkenazi was so coolly received in Washington in mid-March.
However, the inception of Binyamin Netanyahu as prime minister with Barak held over at defense occasioned a spate of declarations which worried the new administration: Netanyahu declared at his swearing-in last Tuesday that if American sanctions and diplomacy fail, Israel will be forced to take action against Iran's nuclear weapon drive and time was running out.
His words were echoed by Barak.
Obama therefore decided to revive the Ashkenazi track, while he was still abroad at the G20 in London and the NATO summit at Strasbourg, and before visiting Istanbul next week. He feared that Israel might upset his broad strategic applecart which hinges on the co-option of Iran as its primary hinge.
Ashkenazi was therefore invited to Strasbourg to carry some more bad news to his government, i.e. that the Obama administration wants Iran as its key military and intelligence partner for resolving America's Afghanistan-Pakistan (known now as "Afgpak") predicament. The shape of this alliance lacks final form; backdoor US-Iranian meetings at various levels are in progress at different venues to determine how far Tehran is willing to go. But the US president has set his course.
The high points of the proposed collaboration were first revealed exclusively by DEBKA-Weekly 390 of March 27 and 391 of April 3.
To subscribe to DEBKA-Net-Weekly click HERE .
Its impact was sensed at the NATO summit in Strasbourg.
Aside from UK premier Gordon Brown, NATO leaders by and large refused the US president's appeal for more troops to fight in Afghanistan. German chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Nicolas Sarkozy told Obama there was no point in sending reinforcements to Afghanistan if US troops were on their way out, especially after Washington had opted for an "Iranian solution" for the conflict without reference to Berlin or Paris.
The Obama administration has a bitter pill for Israel to swallow for the sake of progress toward a strategic collaboration with Tehran on Afghanistan and Pakistan. It cuts close to the bone in terms of Israel's security and international standing:
1. Washington will not brook any unilateral Israeli military action that might upset US-Iranian moves towards cooperation in the Afgpak Arena.
2. Washington will apply all its resources to obstruct such action.
3. It will not be enough for Israel to stand idle as Iran develops a nuclear bomb. The Obama administration also has fish to fry with Taliban and is bent on an urgent breakthrough in Israel-Arab peacemaking for dividends relevant to this arena too.
Israel can therefore expect to be squeezed hard for sweeping concessions to Syria, Lebanon and the Palestinians in order to enhance America's hand on both these tracks.
4. This will bring Jerusalem's Arab opponents to the negotiating table with loaded dice and no bar to treating Israel as the weak party.
The tidings Ashkenazi brings back to Jerusalem from Strasbourg will not be news because Israel officials have been aware of the state of play between Obama and Tehran for some weeks. The only question is how Adm. Mullen packaged his briefing: Did he offer the Israeli chief of staff the chance of military coordination with the United States alongside its evolving pact with Iran? Or simply outline the new situation as a take-it or leave-it proposition?
When this development finally percolates through to the Israeli public, opposition leader Tzipi Livni will no doubt use the opportunity to lay it at the door of the Netanyahu-Lieberman administration as the price for backing away from the Annapolis version of a two-state solution to the Israel-Palestinian conflict.
Livni's efforts to discredit the new government will be internationally popular – but chronologically and factually untenable. The new Obama strategy and its disastrous fallout for Israel took shape while she was still foreign minister and vice premier, for one; and, furthermore, a Palestinian state is clearly defined as the end product of the phased Middle East road map, which the Netanyahu government has formally embraced.
The Annapolis initiative never took off because the ensuing Livni-Olmert talks with Palestinian leaders led nowhere.

Supremes asked to cooperate with FBI
Attorney investigating Obama's eligibility reports cyber attacks
12:10 am Eastern

| Orly Taitz |
A lawyer investigating the eligibility of Barack Obama to be president under the U.S. Constitution's requirement that the office be occupied only by a "natural born" citizen is asking the U.S. Supreme Court to cooperate with an FBI investigation into alleged cyber crimes connected to her work.
In a letter addressed yesterday to Chief Justice John Roberts, the associate justices, the Secret Service and others, California lawyer Orly Taitz, who is working on a number of eligibility cases through the Defend Our Freedoms Foundation, wrote, "I hope that the Supreme Court will show proper cooperation in investigation of such crimes by the FBI and other agencies and I request a letter of cooperation to that extent."
Taitz is just one of many attorneys across the country whose clients are raising questions about Obama's eligibility.
WND has reported on dozens of legal challenges to Obama's status as a "natural born citizen." The Constitution, Article 2, Section 1, states, "No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President."
Some of the lawsuits question whether he was actually born in Hawaii, as he insists. If he was born out of the country, Obama's American mother, the suits contend, was too young at the time of his birth to confer American citizenship to her son under the law at the time.
![]() President Obama |
Other challenges have focused on Obama's citizenship through his father, a Kenyan subject to the jurisdiction of the United Kingdom at the time of his birth, thus making him a dual citizen. The cases contend the framers of the Constitution excluded dual citizens from qualifying as natural born.
Adding fuel to the fire is Obama's persistent refusal to release documents that could provide answers. While his supporters cite an online version of a "Certification of Live Birth" from Hawaii, critics point out such documents actually were issued for children not born in the state.
Taitz is one of several lawyers who have brought emergency motions to the U.S. Supreme Court over the cases, only to have them dropped without a hearing.
While her effort was pending at the court, its references suddenly were scrubbed from the public website just two days before a conference among justices on the case was to be heard.
She filed a complaint with the FBI, which promised a review, but the investigative agency noted that in that situation, technically the Supreme Court was the "victim" of having its website hacked, and officials there would need to cooperate for the effort to move forward............................................................................................................................................................................
Tax Day party count nearing 2,000 U.S. cities
Mainstream media may run, but they can't hide from protest tidal wave
12:10 am Eastern
© 2009 WorldNetDaily
While WND has been tracking 400 individual tea parties across the nation, the American Family Association has announced its count is nearing 1,600 – for Tax Day alone.
The AFA, planned to coordinate 1,000 Taxed Enough Already, or TEA, parties to be held at 12 p.m. on April 15 in front of city halls across the nation.
But the group is pleasantly surprised as is stands to double that goal before Tax Day is here.
"Our goal was to have a TEA party in 1,500 cities. We are nearly 100 cities above our goal and still growing," said Donald E. Wildmon, AFA chairman.
The AFA sponsored TEA parties are in addition to hundreds of parties planned by other groups. Taxpayers are also organizing tea parties for Independence Day and various Saturdays so people with conflicting work schedules may attend.
Meanwhile, a Google Maps list shows several locations of citizen tea parties – so many that the United States is nearly hidden behind a sea of blue markers.
Wildmon said the protests are essential because the government's reckless spending is burdening America with insurmountable debt.
"The runaway spending by President Obama and Congress will have a definite negative effect on our families," he said. "We are leaving a debt of trillions of dollars to be paid by our grandchildren and great-grandchildren."
The organization launched a Tea Party Day website so volunteer organizers may register their protests with AFA. The website also provides a list of other protests across the nation that are not organized by AFA.
Michael DePrimo, special counsel to AFA President Tim Wildmon, told WND that AFA has been inundated with e-mails from citizens who want to attend or organize tea parties in their own cities.
"We're trying to get people to attend these and we're also encouraging others if there is no tea party in their community to start their own," he said. "All we're trying to do is really generate activity to try to try to get people to attend these rallies to really send a message to Washington."
The group encourages tea party attendees to bring a cell phone and call the president, 202-456-1414, and Congress, 202-224-3121, while attending the rallies.

It's official.
If you question Barack Obama, you're a racist.
If you think he should be held to the same standard as previous presidents and his opponent with regard to establishing constitutional eligibility to serve, you're a racist.
If you draw critical cartoons of Obama in major U.S. daily newspapers, you're a racist.
If you are concerned about the fact that he attended Jeremiah Wright's church of hate for 20 years, you're a racist.
If you wonder what values he absorbed as a child studying Islam in a foreign country, you're a racist.
That's what I learned from reading what purports to be a news story disseminated by the semi-official news service, the Associated Press, but more closely resembles a race-conscious screed you would expect to read in People's Weekly World.
Here's how it begins: "In a country long divided by race, Barack Obama argues that Americans generally have been colorblind in judging him," writes Liz Sidoti. "Yet old racial stereotypes and Internet-fueled falsehoods flourish about the first black president."
Were you under the delusion that America would stop being a racist nation once it elected a black president in spite of the fact that he had no qualifications for office and probably is not even constitutionally eligible?
Forgive me, but I actually thought that would take us white folks off the hook – especially given the fact that the only race-conscious voters in last November's election were blacks, who voted for Obama by 96 percent. On the other hand, 43 percent of white voters chose Obama – the same percentage that voted for Bill Clinton in 1996.
In other words, it would seem, based on the evidence, that racism elected Obama. The white vote was split along the lines of previous elections, while the black vote went to Obama in record numbers.
Nevertheless, the race-baiters are still claiming Obama is somehow a victim of racism. They apparently will not be satisfied that racism is dead in America until all of us vote for Obama and cease all criticism of him.
I suspect that as his poll numbers continue to plummet and his insane policies fail, the race card will be played with increasing frequency and fervor.
