The problem is that Barack Obama has surrounded himself with people who clearly harbor anti-American views such as members of the Weather Underground and unrepetant terrorists William Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn, or those who seem to harbor anti-American sentiments such as his ver own wife, Michelle Obama.
With so little political history, all we have to go on is Barack Obama's word and what we can find out about his preferred associates. His words are pretty but when we examine his life choices and relationships, those he has chosen to associate and work with we discover that there may be strong anti-American undercurrent present across all facets of his chosen world.
