There is a lot that can be learned from Barack Obama’s books, “Dreams of My Father” and “The Audacity of Hope.” He informs the public that his father was a Marxist and that he hated America, plus many more interesting revelations.

Obama’s short senatorial tenure was deplorable, either not attending sessions or often voting “present” — a true sign of non-commitment.

He chose Chicago as his hometown, known to have some of the country’s most corrupt politicians. He involved himself with ACORN, an organization in the same genre.

His wife, Michelle, said she wasn’t proud to be an American prior to his election.

He vowed that he didn’t know the Rev. Jeremiah Wright all that much, although he attended his church for about 20 years. Wright was the person who married him and Michelle. Was it a lapse of memory or a way to evade the truth that Wright had a chip on his shoulder concerning America?

Enter Bill Ayers, who formed the Weather Underground terrorist movement, responsible for bombing some government buildings. Obama claimed he was just a guy down the street, but was known to have given speeches with him. And Obama chose to start his presidential campaign in Ayers’ living room.

Obama won that election by charmingly pulling the wool over people’s eyes, taking advantage of their vulnerability, and with help from the news media that disregarded Obama’s notorious affiliations and radical motives.
