BARACK OBAMA DENOUNCED AND REJECTED NOI LEADER, MINISTER LOUIS FARRAKHAN.

During the Democratic Presidential Debate,  held Tuesday 2/26/2008  at Cleveland State University.  The subject came up in regards to The Annual NOI gathering Where it was reported that the Minister Louis Farrakhan gave his endorsement to Barack Obama.

Hillary Clinton was not satisfied with Senator Obama’s answer,  After  Obama said that he did not solicit the endorsement from the Chicago Minister who  along with other leaders organized the Million Man March on Washington D.C.  several years ago.  Barack Obama said he denounced the anti-Semitic comments made by Farrakhan towards Jews. 

Let’s get some things straight here and now.  Obama didn’t need Farrakhan’s endorsement to get the black vote because he is already pulling in 75 to 90% of that vote.

 Consider the self-righteousness of the anti-Obama campaigns, and of course, His opponent.  Who seek nothing more than to compel Barack Obama to publicly Reject, Denounce and otherwise  Condemn the man over and over again.   To prove what to who? 

Or until the damage and division has been achieved.   Blacks dividing, the races dividing, and the parties dividing.   Creating apathy among the new voters, who may not bother to vote if Obama is not in the race.  As well as, millions of blacks who are voting in record numbers during these past primaries.   That would be perfect for the opponents of Obama.  However, We the people can not, or will not accept the destruction of Barack Obama.

To he or she who has an eye to see.   Then you like me can see where this campaign is heading.  Therefore fellow supporters lets not allow the media to divide us.  When we see that his enemies seek to destroy him and his candidacy by any means necessary.   Many believe all is fair in love and political wars. Therefore we must Stand with the man, Barack Obama.

 The Clinton Camp might be up to that old divide and conquer game?  No, I think that’s beneath, even them, But I’ve been wrong before.

I don’t blame Obama for not wanting to slam another person, even if that person is the Minister Louis Farrakhan, Or for thinking highly of the Minister for the good works of the minister.  You can denounce the words without denouncing the man which is what I think Barack Obama did.

Be that as it may,  If Obama becomes the nominee,  we might as well prepare for more of the same racial politics and divisiveness that has come to be expected when an African- American aspires to take on the Highest Office of the Land.

BARACK OBAMA’S IMPACT ON THE MASSES

I talked to around fifty (50) people today in Virginia as a campaign volunteer for the Obama for America Campaign.  A few people told me they and their families  would be voting for Barack Obama in Tuesday’s Democratic Primary.

A number of the fifty were undecided.   And a few I talked to said they were voting for John McCain.

After I told one lady that I was calling her on behalf of the Obama campaign and asked her who was she planning on supporting.  She said, ”It Won’t be him” and “Why do These Representatives call and bug you at Home all the Times of the Night”.  It was early afternoon when I called her.  I thanked the lady for  her time and said good bye. 

She pleasantly said good bye to me.  I gave the polling locations to a few voters who weren’t sure of their polling locations.

I talked to both the young and to seniors.  I spoke to people of various races, and I would assume, many backgrounds and religions as well.

I really enjoyed talking to the people of Virginia  as a volunteer campaign worker living in San Diego CA.   Working the phone bank for the Obama campaign from my home PC. 

My job is to call and remind voters about the upcoming date of the primary and to educate them on where Obama stands on the issues.  I make sure they know where their polling locations are located and thank them for their time. 

I have never been civic minded to the point where I personally will get physically involve in a political campaign,  Hear comes the testimonial.

Seriously, I have never gotten involved in actually calling and campaigning before.  I never knew it could be so enlightening. 

I spoke to people who have different existences and lifestyles in far away places.  I really plan to be active in the political process again in the future. 

 It’s something I recommend everyone should do in their life, if they haven’t already.  Hopefully someone will inspire you as Barack Obama has inspired me to see him become President of the United States of America.
