Charles Barron's Obama Fliers

"White America will not allow Barack Obama to say, ‘I’m proud to be black and I want to make history as the first black president of the United States of America,’” City Councilman Charles Barron told me this afternoon.

To help get that message out, Barron told me he’s printing 10,000 of these fliers and distributing them all over East New York and the rest of the 10th Congressional district, (home of Representative Ed Towns, a Clinton supporter).

“Hillary can say she wants to be the first woman president,” Barron said, “and they wont think she’s just going to take care of women. John McCain is Irish, and he is making that known. But if Barack Obama says I’m black, I’m proud, I’m looking forward to being the first black president of the United State of America, in this racist country, whites will fear him and say he’s just going to take care of black people.”

UPDATE: Ben has an email from an Obama fund-raiser who is desperately seeking money and saying the campaign is targeting voters in five congressional districts here. In Manhattan, they're districts represented by Jerry Nadler, Carolyn Maloney and Charlie Rangel. In Brooklyn, the districts are represented by Yvette Clarke and Ed Towns.

Obama is HALF white, his mom was as white as the page this story is written on...why do black folks keep insisting he's black. He's a mulatto and there's nothing wrong with that. But get over the fact that he's riding into town as the great black savior. A president represents all, not just the ethnic group he/she comes from.

I was going to vote for Obama, but seeing that Charles Barron is endorsing him may sway me. But we all know Barron is only endorsing him because he is black, and Barron as we know is the biggest racist around, against caucasians.

anyone wonder why barak HUSSIEN obama changed his name from barry soetoro to barak obama? i wonder if he was really born in america? this man is a snake in the grass!!! you all should check out his church's website, see what a bunch of racists they are. they pledge allegiance to africa and obama still has several family members there. too bad obama leaves his grandma in war torn kenya. nice guy. i wonder why he refuses to wear a flag lapel pin and why he will not put his hand over his heart during the pledge of allegence. barak is good friends with lois farrakhan too. any of you white and jews who plan to vote for obama best check out lois farrakhan's feelings on whites and jews.

as far as this barron goes, he is a filthy racist pig. i have seen him on tv and he reeks of hatred for whites. it's people like barron, sharpton and jesse jackson that keep the hate going. without the race card, they'd all be flipping burgers at mcdonalds.

WAKE UP AMERICA - READ MUSLM WEBSITES, THEY ALL WANT DEMS TO WIN IN NOV. DOES THIS NOT MAKE YOU STOP AND THINK? YOU WANT TO MAKE OUR ENEMIES HAPPY BY ELECTING A DEM? PUT YOUR COUNTRY AHEAD OF YOUR PARTY!!!

Well, I'm a white guy and I voted for Obama already. (In NH no less. I grew up in NY for all you urban provincials who have not a clue about this place but fancy you do.)

More to the point: If you are struggling for insights as to what is wrong with America, you could not start with a better pair of examples than Charles Barron and happycracka. Both are morons. We produce an abundance in the US.

Barron is stuck in the late 60s, stereotyping white folk in a manner that would infuriate him if a white guy spoke of blacks in a similar manner. happycracka is stuck somewhere deep in his anus, cringing in fear of others as he luxuriates in abject ignorance and hate of otehrs and all things American.

Each occupies, at tops, the third ring of hell. I hope that they are roomies. They deserve it.

AJ LOCKWOOD

YOU HAVE YOUR HEAD UP YOUR ANUS IF YOU THINK OBAMA IS GOING TO BE A UNITER - WAKE UP AND PUT DOWN THE CRACK PIPE. I GREW UP IN DETROIT SO I DON'T NEED A LECTURE FROM THE LIKES OF YOU ABOUT LIVING THE URBAN LIFE. BARRON IS NOT STUCK IN THE 60'S MORON, HIS HATRED STILL INFLUENCES YOUNG BLACK MEN TO THIS DAY. I DO NOT DOUBT THAT OBAMA HARBORS THE SAME FEELINGS AS BARRON. BUT GO AHEAD AND VOTE FOR A RACIST - YOU WILL HANG YOURSELF WITH YOUR OWN ROPE. NOW GO DO SOME RESEARCH ON YOUR BELOVED CANDIDATE, IF YOU ARE BLACK, I AM SURE YOU HAVE NO PROB WITH HIS RACIST TIES, IF YOU ARE WHITE AND STILL SUPPORT HIM, YOU'RE A MENTAL MIDGET AND AN OXYGEN THIEF. AND BY THE WAY, SO YOU CAN'T CALL ME A RACIST, I VOTED FOR ALAN KEYES IN THE 2000 PRIMARIES SO THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH COLOR, IT HAS TO DO WITH HAVING THE RIGHT CANDIDATE IN THE WHITE HOUSE AND OBAMA IS NOT THAT MAN.

WHO IS BARRY SOETORO A.K.A. BARAK OBAMA

Barack Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, to Barack Hussein Obama, Sr., a black Muslim
from Nyangoma-Kogel, Kenya and Ann Dunham, a white Atheist from Wichita, Kansas. Obama's
parents met at the University of Hawaii. When Obama was two years old, his parents divorced.
His father returned to Kenya. His mother then married Lolo Soetoro, a radical Muslim from
Indonesia. When Obama was 6 hears old, the family relocated to Indonesia. Obama attended
a Muslim school in Jakarta. He also spent two years in Catholic school. Obama takes great
care to conceal the fact that he is a Muslim. He is quick to point out that, "He was
ONCE a Muslim, but that he also attended Catholic school."
Obama's political handlers are attempting to make it appear that he is not a radical.
His introduction to Islam came via his father, and that this influence was temporary at best.
In reality, the senior Obama returned to Kenya soon after the divorce, and never again had
any direct influence over his son's education. Lolo Soetoro, the second husband of Obama's
mother, Ann Dunham, introduced his stepson to Islam. Obama was enrolled in a Wahabi school
in Jakarta.
Wahabism is the RADICAL ISLAMIC teaching that is followed by the Muslim terrorists who are
now waging Jihad against the western world. Since it is politically expedient to be a
CHRISTIAN when seeking major public office in the United States, Barack Hussein Obama
has joined the United Church of Christ in an attempt to downplay his Muslim background.
Also, keep in mind that when he was sworn into office he DID NOT use the Holy Bible, but
instead the Koran. He will NOT recite the Pledge of Allegience nor will he show any
reverence for our flag. While others place their hand over their heart, Obama turns his
back to the glaf and slouches.
Let us all remain alert concerning Obama's expected presidential candidacy. The Muslims
have said they plan on destroying the USA from the inside out. What better way to start
than at the highest level - through the President of the United States, one of their own!!!!
Would you want this man leading our country?.....
NOT ME!!!

Unfortunately, HAPPYCRACKA, typing something on the internet doesn't make it true. Your completely unfounded and bigoted remarks about Barack Obama have been factually refuted so many times it's a waste of effort for me to point you in the wrong direction. Barack is not a Muslim, he didn't change his name to hoodwink you (really? when he was a toddler, he was trying to deceive the american public? give me a break!), he does say the pledge of allegiance (and put his hand over his heart), etc, etc. Barack Obama was sworn into office using a Holy Bible, not the Koran. Sorry, but you're a liar. There's enough evidence on the internet that you have to be knowingly spreading lies, as opposed to just being pathetically gullible and ignorant.

Your ridiculous claims about THE MUSLIMS (oh no!) would still be ludicrous even if you could spell Muslim or Hussein properly, which you cannot seem to do consistently.

In answer to your final question, "Would you want this man leading our country?" Yes. Yes, I would. Yes, I do. I have put forth my time and money supporting his campaign, because I truly hope that he gets a chance to try and change this country. Fortunately, my efforts haven't just been limited to making up disgusting lies and spamming the internet.

and welcome to Muslim Americans for Obama'08.

Muslim American for Obama' 08 is a grassroots initiative to support the presidential campaign for Barack Obama 2008. Our sincere intention is to serve as a resource for Muslim and non-Muslim Americans to get involved and learn more about the political process and Barak Obama as a person and presidential candidate.

Muhammad the Messenger of God (pbuh) -
Quote from Last Sermon:
All mankind is from Adam and Eve, an Arab has no superiority over a non-Arab nor a non-Arab has any superiority over an Arab; also a white has no superiority over a black nor a black has any superiority over white except by piety and good action...

We Support Barack Obama because he believes in one United America with Freedom, Justice and Equality for All.

Senator Obama Quote: " There is not a black America, and white America, and Latino America, and Asian America, there's the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" - 2004 Democratic Convention Speech

National and International Muslim American Leader Imam W.D. Mohammed endorsed Sen. Barack Obama saying "He is the best candidate for the Presidency."

Muslim Congressman Keith Ellision endorsed the 2008 presidential campaign of Sen. Obama saying “"He speaks with a unifying spirit.” He said he supports “Obama's message of an open and fair economy, a balanced prosperity and clear opposition to the war in Iraq.”

The primary elections begin in early 2008 we can't wait until NOVEMBER 2008 to get active. May God reward our efforts and bless the United States of America.

Obama is the Most Pro-Abortion Candidate Ever
By Terence Jeffrey

Barack Obama is the most pro-abortion presidential candidate ever.

He is so pro-abortion he refused as an Illinois state senator to support legislation to protect babies who survived late-term abortions because he did not want to concede -- as he explained in a cold-blooded speech on the Illinois Senate floor -- that these babies, fully outside their mothers' wombs, with their hearts beating and lungs heaving, were in fact "persons."

"Persons," of course, are guaranteed equal protection of the law under the 14th Amendment.

In 2004, U.S. Senate-candidate Obama mischaracterized his opposition to this legislation. Now, as a presidential frontrunner, he should be held accountable for what he actually said and did about the Born Alive Infants Bill.

State and federal versions of this bill became an issue earlier this decade because of "induced labor abortion." This is usually performed on a baby with Down's Syndrome or another problem discovered on the cusp of viability. A doctor medicates the mother to cause premature labor. Babies surviving labor are left untreated to die.

Jill Stanek, who was a nurse at Christ Hospital in Oak Lawn, Ill., testified in the U.S. Congress in 2000 and 2001 about how "induced labor abortions" were handled at her hospital.

"One night," she said in testimony entered into the Congressional Record, "a nursing co-worker was taking an aborted Down's Syndrome baby who was born alive to our Soiled Utility Room because his parents did not want to hold him, and she did not have the time to hold him. I couldn't bear the thought of this suffering child lying alone in a Soiled Utility Room, so I cradled and rocked him for the 45 minutes that he lived."

In 2001, Illinois state Sen. Patrick O'Malley introduced three bills to help such babies. One required a second physician to be present at the abortion to determine if a surviving baby was viable. Another gave the parents or a public guardian the right to sue to protect the baby's rights. A third, almost identical to the federal Born Alive Infant Protection Act President Bush signed in 2002, simply said a "homo sapiens" wholly emerged from his mother with a "beating heart, pulsation of the umbilical cord or definite movement of voluntary muscles" should be treated as a "'person,' 'human being,' 'child' and 'individual.'"

Stanek testified about these bills in the Illinois Senate Judiciary Committee, where Obama served. She told me this week he (Obama) was "unfazed" by her story of holding the baby who survived an induced labor abortion.

On the Illinois Senate floor, Obama was the only senator to speak against the baby-protecting bills. He voted "present" on each, effectively the same as a "no."

"Number one," said Obama, explaining his reluctance to protect born infants, "whenever we define a pre-viable fetus as a person that is protected by the Equal Protection Clause or the other elements in the Constitution, what we're really saying is, in fact, that they are persons that are entitled to the kinds of protections that would be provided to a -- a child, a 9-month old -- child that was delivered to term. That determination then, essentially, if it was accepted by a court, would forbid abortions to take place. I mean, it -- it would essentially bar abortions, because the Equal Protection Clause does not allow somebody to kill a child, and if this is a child, then this would be an anti-abortion statute."

That June, the U.S. Senate voted 98-0 in favor of the Born Alive Infants Protection Act (although it failed to become law that year). Pro-abortion Democrats supported it because this language was added: "Nothing in this section shall be construed to affirm, deny, expand or contract any legal status or legal right applicable to any member of the species homo sapiens at any point prior to being born alive as defined in this section."

Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer explained that with this language the "amendment certainly does not attack Roe v. Wade."

On July 18, 2002, Democratic Sen. Harry Reid called for the bill to be approved by unanimous consent. It was.

That same year, the Illinois version of the bill came up again. Obama voted "no."

In 2003, Democrats took control of the Illinois Senate. Obama became chairman of the Health and Human Services committee. The Born Alive Infant bill, now sponsored by Sen. Richard Winkel, was referred to this committee. Winkel also sponsored an amendment to make the Illinois bill identical to the federal law, adding -- word for word -- the language Barbara Boxer said protected Roe v. Wade. Obama still held the bill hostage in his committee, never calling a vote so it could be sent to the full senate.

A year later, when Republican U.S. senate candidate Alan Keyes challenged Obama in a debate for his opposition to the Born Alive Infant Bill, Obama said: "At the federal level there was a similar bill that passed because it had an amendment saying this does not encroach on Roe v. Wade. I would have voted for that bill."

In fact, Obama had personally killed exactly that bill.

America has set the standards for race. Sen Obama has chosen his path and states he is a black man. Is affilated with the black community and married a black woman So he is the first black man to achieve ranking in the politicial arena. He states loud and clear he is an african - American man. Thats why we say he is black. My fATHER WAS A LEBANESE MAN AND MY MOTHER A LIBERIAN WOMAN. iN AMERICAS EYES WHEN THEY SEE ME i AM A BLACK WOMAN.

Everyonr with half a brain knows what Allan Keyes stands for he could be called George Bushes
counterpart/he is one of those black men who has issues with who he is and what he looks like.
He believes if he speaks up for white folk like you he will get a free pass.

Charles Barron has a point the only the black community would understan- some valid issues weather being stuck in the 60- really carries thru till now in some areas.
Its like driving while black- keeping a low profile- working the system before it works you still exist today.
Say what you like -see happy crackers still are alive and well in America today.
