Uneducated, uninformed, racist.  This class will vote 98% for the muslim trojan horse.  Those blacks who are educated and informed will likely vote for the best ticket - McCain-Palin.  Education and self-sufficiency tends to eradicate racism.  ZerObama's black vote is nothing more than a vote for more racism.   Unhappily for the ZerO, there are more uneducated racist whites than blacks who will nicely cancel out this black racist vote for the ZerO. &lt;br&gt;&lt;div border="2" style="margin-top: 10px; border:#000000 1px solid;" width="90%"&gt;&lt;div style="background-color:"&gt;&lt;div align="center" width="100%" style="padding:4px;margin-bottom:4px;background-color:#666666;overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#FFFFFF;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Clip Source: &lt;a style="color:#FFFFFF;" href="http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/dn/latestnews/stories/091708dnspomavslede.112d818.html" title="http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/dn/latestnews/stories/091708dnspomavslede.112d818.html"&gt;www.dallasnews.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="padding: 10px;"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align:left;"&gt;In a video posted on YouTube, the swingman is shown at Allen Iverson's        charity flag football game in July.

But the Hustle only works for the real suckers.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;His German Tiergarten speech with "Citizens of the world!" -- a direct echo of "Workers of the world!" from the Communist Manifesto of 1848.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;"We are the change we've been waiting for!"  It's repeated in The Obama Hustle over and over again. But it's just Fidel Castro's slogan, "La Revolucion Somos Nosotros!" --- "We are the Revolution!" &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Most Americans don't know that Obama's Soviet Realism pics are just imitation Lenin posters. The same thing for The Decembrist rock band to echo the Russian Decemberist rebellion. That's why the Decembrist rockers play the Soviet National Anthem to start their concerts. Get it?&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The whole idea that Obama is a devout Christian is another fraud; he's a militant atheist, just like Bill Ayers and Jeremiah Wright. &lt;br&gt;&lt;div border="2" style="margin-top: 10px; border:#000000 1px solid;" width="90%"&gt;&lt;div style="background-color:#e5e5e5"&gt;&lt;div align="center" width="100%" style="padding:4px;margin-bottom:4px;background-color:#666666;overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#FFFFFF;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Clip Source: &lt;a style="color:#FFFFFF;" href="http://www.americanthinker.com/2008/08/the_audacity_hustle.html" title="http://www.americanthinker.com/2008/08/the_audacity_hustle.html"&gt;www.americanthinker.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="padding: 10px;"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align:left;"&gt;Europe and Obama share the same overriding goal, which is to hitch America to the wagon of worldwide socialist elites.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;hr size="2" color="#666666" /&gt;&lt;div style="padding: 10px;"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align:left;"&gt; He sends out reassuring 'post-racial' messages to Middle America.  But he also sends out race-baiting messages to his adoring fans.

&lt;BR /&gt;
At the start of the event Tuesday morning, City Council President Michael Hancock introduced singer Rene Marie to perform the national anthem.
&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;A anthem="" national="" black="" the="" as="" known="" also="" is="" which="" sing,="" and="" voice="" ry="" ev="" lift="" title="Instead, she performed the song " href="http://www.9news.com/news/article.aspx?storyid=94919&amp;catid=339"&gt;Instead, she performed the song “Lift Ev’ry Voice and Sing,” which is also known as the “black national anthem&lt;/A&gt;.”
&lt;BR /&gt;
When she finished, the audience responded with mild applause. The national anthem was never performed.
&lt;BR /&gt;
Marie told 9NEWS she kept her plans to switch songs quiet until the very last moment. She says only she, her husband and a friend knew she was going to sing something other than the “Star-Spangled Banner.”
&lt;BR /&gt;
She says she wanted to express her love of her country by mixing the lyrics of “Lift Ev’ry Voice and Sing” with the melody of the “Star-Spangled Banner.”
