Your Black Politics: Obama Insists Race Not A Factor In ’08 Election

Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) is pointing to the success of his presidential campaign as a sign that voters won’t reject him based on race.

“The fact of the matter is people have been continually looking for how race will impact this campaign,” Obama said in a satellite interview Friday with Washington’s WJLA ABC 7. “And yet, I’m here, 30 days out, competitive in Virginia.”

The former Confederate state looked safe for Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), but Obama is now pressuring him or beating him in polls of commonwealth voters…

Obama told WJLA’s Leon Harris and Rebecca Cooper that he’ll be able to win over even more undecided voters in Virginia: “I think that it’s just a matter of people getting more familiar with me and knowing what my track record is.”

Obama added that he will do more than big rallies to make the sale. “If you don’t do some retail politics and people can see up close and lift the hood and kick the tires, a lot of times, they’re not going to trust you,” he said…

    His right, he has other baggage that can bring his downfall.

    Associations with William Ayers, unrepetant terrorist who bombed the U.S. Capital, Pentagon and NY police officers in the 1960′s and has recently stated he has not done enough to be a U.S. terrorist while stepping on an american flag. What Obama does not want you to know is that he and his campaign head, David Axelrod, REGUURARLY SPEAKS TO AYERS ON A DAILY BASIS. Obama was the chairman of the board of the Chicago Annenberg Challenge (CAC) in 1993-1995 where Ayers raised $100 Million dollars and it just disappeared. It probably was used to funnel Obama’s state senate campaign. So, yes Obama has some executive experience, but he does not want you to know about this one.

    The list of associations continue: Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Bernadine Dohrn, Joe Sandler (legal hit-man for the Council of American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) who is representing Obama in a current lawsuit challenging his natural born status for presidency), Former Fannie Mae chairman Jim Johnson, Khalid Al-Mansour, ACORN and many others.

    The townhall debate on Tuesday will only be the beginning. I heard from a CIA agent that with these associations for Obama, Obama would not even get clearance to even set foot in the pentagon or any other U.S. agency department. So, Obama thinks he can be President of the U.S.? I don’t think so, they will destroy him or take him out to protect this country. Believe that one. They will not put a person who is a Benedict Arnold in the white house regardless if the Main Stream Media (liberal) media wants him there.

    Something is about to go down in the next 30 days.

    And the CIA Agent is Fannie-Freddie Lobbyist & John McCain Campaign Manager, Rick Davis?

    No it is not. But if it was, why would Obama hang around an unrepetant terrorist?

    That is the question. Why would you run for President, highest patriotic symbol, and think it is okay to associate with a U.S. terrorist who wants to destroy its citizens and symbols?

    Judgment indeed! NOT!

    Obama is dumb, not ready to lead.

    Are you an intern working for Michelle Malkin — cause you sound as silly and vile as her ilk. By the way, read this AP report on Sarah Palin’s insinuations that Obama is a terrorist-appeaser and how it would backfire on McCain:

    Also, watch Paul Begala break down how the McCain campaign is walking on hot coals if they rehash the proverbial “guilt by association” debate:

    FYI: I’m no Obama supporter. In fact, I’m no fan of him. But I think common sense should prevail in this political discourses — not hard-right-wing-ideological-partly-racist-distorted regurgitation.

    No matter how David Axelrod and his $200 Million of foreign money contributing to his campaign he publishes (RNC is posting an audit after an whistleblower with the FEC blew the cover on it) try to buy off the Main Stream Media, facts are facts. Obama (with his wife’s help) used shady partners (Wright, Ayers, and others) to get to where they are at. They are part of the far left wing liberal, socialism mindset who want to overthrow the American government.

    There goal is to recreate the 2008 version of the Nat Turner Rebellion. This government, with its people, will not allow you to do that. Like the Nat Turner rebellion ended violently, this will too. Trust me. They will take him out before he will get a chance to lead as President of this country.
