don’t merely want change, they desire palpable improvement and reversal of
the change that threatens their long term survival prospects.</font></span><br style=”font-weight: bold;” /><span style=”font-size: 10pt;”><font size=”2″ style=”font-family: verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif;”><br />by JR<br /><br />Watching Senator Barack Obama’s
acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention was similar to watching
a large scale religious gathering, replete with the chanting of ‘Yes
we can’ and yelling as if Jesus had returned to save the world. Much of
his campaign has been propelled on high emotion and jive. And I suppose
you can’t scoff at people for getting excited at celebrities provided
there is a logical and sound reason to get excited. His followers
are captivated and enamoured by his smooth talking rhetoric,
charisma, and energetic spirit. Yet the whites amongst them are
cheering for a man whose vision is not in their best long term interests.
Barack Hussein Obamas’ meteoric rise comes only two years after another
Hussein – Saddam Hussein – was executed in his own country three years
after the US instigated invasion. For the record I was opposed to the
illegal invasion of Iraq and the execution of its leader in his own homeland.
Curious, though how so many of the pseudo patriots who welcomed the execution
of Saddam in a far away land are eager to elect another man bearing the
middle name of Hussein who was raised as a Muslim during his formative
years in Indonesia and held Indonesian citizenship. <br /></font>

<span style=”font-size: 10pt;”><font size=”2″ style=”font-family: verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif;”>As late as
the age of 20, Obama visited Pakistan on an Indonesia
passport. It’s ironic that while Obama is associated with change, he has
used various names throughout the years that exemplify his capricious
nature. These include Barack Obama, Barry Soetoro, Barry Obama, Barack
Dunham, and Barry Dunham. <br />
 <br />
The more background information that emerges about this man, it is obvious that
his tenuous American credentials and affiliations with communist anti-white
ideology renders him unfit to be president of a nation founded by
Europeans despite the universalist stance he now crows. Ok, so you might
not be bothered that he was once a Muslim, as religion can often be a personal
belief that you don’t extend to politics. People should be free to chose what
religion that appeals to them. Yet for twenty years Obama regularly went
to a black identity church led by his mentor Reverend Jeremiah Wright
who delivered anti-American sermons, which included his trademark quip ‘God
Damn America!’ when berating foreign policy. Now it’s perfectly understandable
for someone to attend a church that relates to their ethnicity, but Wright has
admitted that his church’s position is based upon Black Liberation
Theology, a radical book by Reverend James Cone that features the
quote <em>’If God is not for us
and against white people then he is a murderer and we’d better kill him’ </em>. Only
since the start of the presidential primary campaign has the church
revised it’s position on key issues in order to assist the Obama
campaign. Furthermore, Obama attended the 1995 Million Man
March, a march of black men in Washington DC organised by the Nation of
Islam. He has voted against the US constitution on numerous occasions.<br />
 <br />
In 2006 <a href=”http://obama.senate.gov/podcast/060504-immigration_ral/”>Obama attended</a&gt;
<em>and</em> endorsed
nationwide immigrant rallies composed largely of illegal
aliens, and if elected will boost immigration levels which
already disturb millions of Americans. Obamas sudden ‘Johnny Come
Lately’ patriotic stance is very dubious because up until recently he
didn’t wear an American flag on his suit lapel. Widespread lingering
doubts also abound as to whether he has a legal right to become president given
that the constitution stipulates that a person must be a natural born citizen
of the United States. Currently it cannot be proved conclusively that he wasn’t
born in Hawaii. Even so, Philip Berg, a Democrat attorney that has
resisted the Democratic party’s call for unity has filed a lawsuit
claiming that Obama is constitutionally ineligible to assume
office because he was born in Kenya. <a href=”http://www.obamacrimes.com/”>Berg’s
suit</a> claims the senator’s grandmother, brother and sister, who live in
Kenya, believe they were present during Obama’s birth in the African
country.  <br /><br />
Obama has ties to communist Bill Ayers, an
unrepentant former terrorist who is now an Illinois University
professor. In 1969 Ayers participated in the planting of a bomb that
blew up a statue commemorating the police casualties of the 1886 Chicago
Haymarket Riot, and was also involved in a series of other terrorist
activities, such as bombing the Pentagon in 1972. His girlfriend was
killed in a nail blast in 1970. Obama downplayed his association with Ayers
in a debate with Hillary Clinton, neglecting to say he served for several
years on the board of the Woods Foundation (anti-poverty group) with
Ayers, until the subject was brought up later in the debate. Obama’s
political career was even launched at an event hosted by Ayers in his own
home. Hardly a casual neighbor that Obama met occasionally in the street
as he’s tried to make out. Nevertheless, Obama did not condemn the
past violent actions of Ayers or the ideology it was committed for. Can you
imagine the media tolerating a prospective white candidate, say Dr Ron Paul,
with connections to a former terrorist? It just wouldn’t happen, yet the
media generously ignore this and help Obama on his path to victory. To quote
Andrew McCarthy, author of ‘Willful Blindness: a memoir of the Jihad’, in an
interview with CNNs Lou Dobbs ‘he [Obama is comfortable with people who
hate this country’. <br />
 <br />
Critics of Obama, particularly at the start of his campaign, were keen to note
that his speeches didn’t clearly outline his policies. To be
fair, his acceptance speech at the Democratic National
Convention was quite specific on what he intends to do. In a speech
highly praised by international media he pledged to heal America by
repairing cities, cutting taxes for 90% of working families, providing health care for all, rewarding companies that don’t ship jobs abroad, and
investing in renewable energy sources. These tantalising promises could
very well seduce millions into believing that he is the man to save America.
Little was said on immigration, the foremost concern of many Americans, even if
not of European descent. His remark here was ‘<em>Passions fly on immigration, but I don’t know anyone who
benefits when a mother is separated from her infant child or an employer
undercuts American wages by hiring illegal workers.  This too is part of
America’s promise – the promise of a democracy where we can find the strength
and grace to bridge divides and unite in common effort.’. </em>From this
you can extrapolate that Obama opposes firms hiring illegal workers but
condones illegal immigrant anchor babies. Note too his reference about bridging
divides. A divide is something objectionable to him. Does that mean that a
border, a very real protective divide, is also something to be
bridged or done away with?  It was expected that Obama would not
oppose legal and illegal immigration too strongly because that would contradict
his vision of a melting pot America where everyone comes together regardless of
their background. Remember that his past speeches have pushed his idea of
people coming together from every background. So if that trend intensifies, how
will groups preserve their identity?<br />
 <br />
For those who think that voting for the Democrats is a safer bet for world
peace and stability than the ostensible warmongering attitude of
Republican John McCain, they need to analyze Obamas speech more
carefully. He says <em>’You
don’t protect Israel and deter Iran just by talking tough in Washington. You
can’t truly stand up for Georgia when you’ve strained our oldest
alliances.  If John McCain wants to follow George Bush with more tough
talk and bad strategy, that is his choice – but it is not the change we
need.’ </em>So is he basically implying that the US should
move beyond sabre rattling and initiate an aggressive campaign against Iran and
potentially create another war in the Middle East?<br />
  <br />
Obama’s all things to all men mindset is neatly summed up in a
closing statement of his earlier Iowa Caucasus speech in March.
He said ‘we are not a collection of red states and blue states, we
are the United States of America!’ Now for a translation: ‘We are not
Democrats, we not Republicans because democracy and political differences
shouldn’t exist. We should only believe in one political standpoint. We are
one people, one world.’.<br />
 <br />
You have to ask yourself American voter, do you really trust a man that
has consistently used double talk and based his campaign on the vain one word
slogans of hope and change? Understand that America is changing for the worse.
Obamas brand of change doesn’t mean a reversal of the insidious anti-white
policies in place but rather an intensification of the present rot. Sane
Americans don’t want double talk, they want straight talk. Sane Americans
don’t merely want change, they desire palpable improvement and reversal of
the change that threatens their long term survival prospects. We want
unity Mr Obama, but unity amongst our own racial groups, not an unnatural
hobbled global unity of open borders and one world dogma. From the perspective
of many nationalists, the only postive outcome of Barack
Obama presidency is that he well serve as a wake up call to European
Americans that they’re losing their country. </font>
