I am a Hillary supporter but this gives me for favorable thought on Obama.

I greatly respect Minister Farrakhan thought processes and his courage to stand up to power despite the dangers to himself. This article proves to me that a lot of thought has gone into why we don't hear that much from the Minister, Sharpton, Jackson etc. They know what the hell they are doing and they have a pretty good idea about what needs to be done to get a black man in the WH. The "sister soulja" Clinton impact that probably enabled him to beat the Dem elite and win twice.

1. Farrakhan is a fucking bum, and a promoter of hate.

2. Wow, what a Klassy way to say that you disagree with her position.

11. He hates Jews and he hates Whites. Yeah, that's real class for ya.

9. "f*ing bum" what does that promote?

[goldcanyonaz]

10. Wow, people around here are now sticking up for this known racist. Amazing.

[Kittycat]

12. I'm not sticking up for anyone.

But just throwing out snide comments isn't enlightening at all.

14. Snide coments? A known hater and we are now to treat him with kid gloves too?

Would you feel the same if David Duke were hailed on here?

3. You need to study up more on Farrakhan. Vote which ever way you want

but Farrakhan is a hate monger. A little googling can go a long way.

4. I don't know why you would greatly respect Farrakhan, can you expand on that?

[Recursion]

6. He's a good violinist?

(He is, incidentally)

[BootinUp]

7. lol, well, ok if she was talking about his musicianship.

[Kokonoe]

5. A clock is right 2 times a day.

And at a time someone cares about the future of the world, trust them.

13. As I read it, it seems to me that Obama has to disavow--keep his distance from early

early civil rights leaders now---whose shoulders he stands on (thinking more of jessie).
