| #5 BO's notion of slavery is to put us all in slavery to the Federal government. |

| #4 Black, negro, african American, colored, whatever it is, I don't know what they want to be called this week. So don't think I'm making "nuanced" racial dispersions here. |

| #3 It is curious that Blacks flock to a religion that comprised the administration of the slave trade for about 1400 years. African Arabs ran the slave trade, why would any black in America that claims to be the lingering victim of slavery want to hook up with the very religion that ran the slave trade? Very curious. |

| #2 this article was the biggest bunch of dung I have read in awhile. Barak's father was African and Barack has zero connection to slavery. I found this interesting though, "Baraq [Barack] was the name of the winged horse-like creature that took Mohammed to Paradise in the Night Journey. Baraq can also mean God's blessing. Obama is Swahili for Osama, who was one of Mohammed's chief warriors. Osama also means lion. Hussein reminds some Americans of Saddam Hussein, and Obama's supporters get upset if it is used. Hussein was the name of Mohammed's grandson. So Obama's entire name is based upon Islamic mythology and African conquest. Barack Hussein Obama means [Allah's blessing] [Mohammed's grandson] [One of Mohammed's finest warriors]. Since I am beginning to see Obama as a trojan horse, it seems to fit. |

| #1 The only candidate advocating mandatory 'voluntary' public service is Obama. It's easy when you lay the unpaid work burden upon the shoulders of those who can't vote. Like a lot of 'ideas' postulated this election, it's just another Orwellian Newspeak to accuse your opponent of contemplating what you are doing. |
