Barack Hussein Obama's Radical Leftist Roots

William Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn
Terrorists William Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn, who launched Obama's political career. Obama claims that Bill Ayers was "just a guy in my neighborhood," and "I was just eight years old when he was a terrorist." However, Obama was 34 when Ayers used his radical celebrity to launch Obama's political career, and he was 40 when this unrepentant terrorist was featured in a New York Times article (on the morning of September 11, 2001) and quoted in the opening paragraph proclaiming, "I don't regret setting bombs. I feel we didn't do enough." Ayers added, "America makes me want to puke." Obama was working on his second major "philanthropic" project with Ayers at that time.
Jeremiah Wright
Jeremiah Wright, Obama's black radical spiritual advisor. Obama claims that despite having spent 20 years as a disciple of Wright, the man who officiated at his marriage and baptized his children, the man who Obama describes as "a father figure," he never inhaled any of his spiritual mentor's racial hatred -- never even heard any of it.
Others
Obama has close ties to the Socialist New Party, the ACORN crowd, Father Michael Pfleger, Khalid al-Mansour, Kwame Kilpatrick, Louis Farrakhan, Tony Rezko, Rashid Khalidi, Raila Odinga and other haters, hard Leftists, and convicted felons.
