This may be well orchastrated plan to place their Messiah completely into victim status. Nader hates everyone but himself. He has had waste material oozing out of his ears for years.

The Jesse Jackson gaff was directed at white liberals to get them to see that Obamanation in a down troddened colored liberal who they (the white liberals) can flock around in guilt to support. Lets face it about 80 – 90% of Black America will vote for Obamanation regardless of what Jackson says or doesn’t say.

New Yorker is again painting Obamanation as a victim. There has been so much speculation about radical and islamic ties throughout the whole campaign process so far. I suspect this is designed to rally the Left and Liberal base and help distract them from Obamanations counter gaffs.
