I Don't Believe That "Osama" Was Mistakenly Substituted For "Obama" On Voter's Ballots! This Is OUTRAGEOUS!




I hope you read my last post on racism in America. With this latest voting scandal, I wonder what was the purpose in the misspelling of Obama. Except to send a subliminal message to voters that says,"Wait! He may be a terrorist so mull it over before you check "Osama". This would seem like a deliberate attempt at sending a message to the subconscious of the voter. I really hope that I'm just being cynical. Watch the same "mistakes" being made on CNN & MSNBC! Is this all just a coincidence? You be the judge. Here's the link to the article about the latest mistake regarding the spelling of his name: http://dailygazette.com/news/2008/oct/10/1010_ballots/.

That picture I posted has the same incorrect spelling done purposely. My biggest trepidation about these incidents is that it's an attempt to use psychology on voters. How could these same mistakes be made in the media also? It just does not seem practical to me. The McCain/Palin ticket has been using the same methods. All the rhetoric about patriotism had one McCain backer telling him at a rally that Barack Obama is an Arab. Even he had to tell the lady that Barack Obama is a decent American. But, if you recall both Sarah Palin & him were calling him un-american. They have done their job of trying to create a bigger racial divide than there already was.Let's just hope the name association game doesn't triumph over the fact that Obama is not a terrorist. He was born in America & John McCain was born in Panama.

This is the exact passage from an article in the International Herald Tribune,
"McCain's likely nomination as the Republican candidate for president and the happenstance of his birth in the Panama Canal Zone in 1936 are reviving a musty debate that has surfaced periodically since the founders first set quill to parchment and declared that only a "natural-born citizen" can hold the nation's highest office.

Almost since those words were written in 1787 with scant explanation, their precise meaning has been the stuff of confusion, law school review articles, whisper campaigns and civics class debates over whether only those delivered on American soil can be truly natural born. To date, no American to take the presidential oath has had an official birthplace outside the 50 states.

"There are powerful arguments that Senator McCain or anyone else in this position is constitutionally qualified, but there is certainly no precedent," said Sarah Duggin, an associate professor of law at Catholic University who has studied the issue extensively. "It is not a slam-dunk situation."


That makes Barack Obama more of an American than John McCain. If the situation was reversed, I am certain this would be one of their numerous concerns about Obama. Because Obama is such a refined politician he has not stooped to that level. He has never questioned whether or not John McCain is a natural born American citizen. There is too much to sort out for the next president & the country that will elect him. We need to find out what both candidates positions are on the issues that affect all Americans. Let's stop dumbing this election down with outlandish claims & accusations. American people need facts about the economy. Give us the information that we so desire.

If You Don't Understand Racism, Watch This!


This video is very informative because it draws a parallel between the extermination of the Jews & Africans by Germans. Before the Jewish Holocaust, there was an African Holocaust. Here is an excerpt of those events from; http://www.oasys.com.na/News/2008/8/20/Jonker-Afrikaner-Remembered/.

"Alongside the Ovaherero, large populations of the Nama community were almost wiped from the face of the earth during the four years of hostility during the 1904-1908 wars. General Lothar von Trotha issued the infamous extermination order, calling for not only active foot soldiers to be killed but also defenceless women and children and some were confined in concentration camps where many were starved to death, according to historians. The extermination order is widely believed to be the first-ever ethnic cleansing history on record on the continent.

On January 12, 1904, the Herero people under Samuel Maharero rose in rebellion against German colonial rule. In August, German general Lothar von Trotha finally defeated the Herero in the Waterberg area and drove them and their families into the desert of Omaheke where most of them died of thirst.

In October, the Nama also took up arms against the Germans and were dealt with in a similar fashion. Between 24 000 and 65 000 Ovaherero, estimated to be almost 65 percent of the total Ovaherero population and 10 000 Nama estimated to be a half of the population perished. Two characteristics of the genocide were death by starvation and the poisoning of wells used by the Herero and Nama populations that were trapped in the deserts.

In 1985, the United Nations’ Whitaker Report recognised Germany’s attempt to exterminate the Herero and Nama peoples of South-West Africa as one of the earliest attempts at genocide in the 20th century. The German government apologised for the events in 2004.

For the last four years the Genocide Repatriation Committee, led by Riruako, has unsuccessfully advocated for Germany to compensate the Ovaherero and the Nama people, but without much success
", the article states.

This is an amazing story which is also depicted in the video I posted above. To this day, those people were not compensated. That let's you know the state of racial relations worldwide. Even in the 21st century, you will not give Africans any sort of reparation whatsoever. Slavery reparations should not be an issue, according to many, because it happened over a century ago. What happened here? This was a barbaric act which threatened to wipe this race off the face of the earth. American Indians still receive a check for the horrible acts committed against them. That all transpired at the same time as slavery. The Nama community faced extermination in the 20th century just like the Jews. How does one holocaust differ from the other? Any group of people who survive these crimes against humanity should be apologized to & compensated in some way. The pain & suffering of the black diaspora is just as great as any other race, if not greater. This whole series of videos will give you much more clarity on international race relations.

Jesse Jackson Jr. Says That The ACORN Scandal Is Really About Poor People Voting!


With all the negative publicity that ACORN is receiving, I thought I'd give you a different perspective on this organization.Watch the video.
Read this article:http://www.huffingtonpost.com/rep-jesse-jackson-jr/attacks-on-acorn-based-no_b_133657.html

Jesse Jackson Jr. makes an excellent point about this voter registration fraud scandal that involves ACORN(Association of Community Organization for Reform Now). He said:
"Why are they after ACORN? Well, I'm sure they're going to come up with a lot of "reasons" in the coming days. But the real reason is obvious: Because ACORN, along with Project Vote, just announced that they had successfully registered 1.3 million poor people this year.

Get that? 1.3 million, including 148,000 in Pennsylvania, 152,000 in Florida, 217,000 in Michigan, and 238,000 in Ohio. No wonder the GOP is up in arms. They're scared of too many poor people preparing to vote this year."


Jesse Jackson Jr. also recounted his knowledge of the history of voter fraud. He made the point that no fraud has actually been committed until the fake registrant votes. So far, none of these fake people have shown up to vote. Where was this outrage 4 years ago? It all just seems like a bogus claim to me. They don't want the disaffected to cast a vote. Especially not close to a million of them. All votes should be legitimate this time around. When McCain loses, expect a demand for a recount. We should all anticipate a concerted effort by the republicans to steal the election from Obama. They've done it before & we all know that history repeats itself. So much for reform, John McCain!
