We know Obama is getting closer to making his run for President official. And he is already aligning himself with one of the biggest political blunders in campaign history. Jesse Jackson and his 1984 Presidential campaign.

Read the details of what turned that campaign into a train wreck here. One would think that nobody in their right mind would want to be associated with a campaign that featured anti-Semitic side-bar statements and threats from Louis Farrakhan (aka Farra-the-Con).

It seems members of the Civil Rights Industry are not getting too cozy with Obama’s plans for a Presidential run and are even jealous. While that jealousy saps a potential base of allies from Obama, which works out well for Conservatives like myself who never want to see him near the White House. Obama could have played it to his advantage, by showing he would not align himself with race baiting nut cases. Instead, Obama is kissing their feet and praising Jackson’s 1984 mess of a political campaign.

I find it interesting that Obama would choose to associate himself with the messy run by Jesse Jackson in 1984. Why didn’t Obama instead mention 1972? When Shirley Chisholm ran as the first Black and also the first female Democratic Presidential candidate. To me Obama’s choice is telling.

Also, in addition to Obama’s Muslim training, we now know that he was attending socialist conferences while in college.

Communist groups like international ANSWER always express hatred for Israel. So we have the socialist Obama, who is Muslim trained and aligning himself with Jackson’s anti-Semitic 1984 run. His leanings seem to mirror those of anti-Semitic communist groups, if you read between the hype. So Obama took a trip to Israel once, but I keep telling you, Islamist front groups love Obama.
