It has been six months since I joined the Obama campaign. Sometimes it feels like lifetime ago. So much has happened. There has been a great deal of traveling and I’ve seen more of America than I have ever cared to see. I am still astounded by how large this backwards and flawed nation is. I express this to Senator Obama.
“I understand. Believe me, I feel the same way.” Obama pauses and puts down the water bottle and rubs his eyes with both hands. “There is so much that I must do and sometimes I don’t know if eight years will be enough.”
The McCain people continue to claim Obama is a Socialist or that he will take money from plumbers. “They do not understand,” Obama says. “I wish sometimes I could just grab one of them by the shoulders and just yell, ‘wake up and get with the program!’”.
“Some people get it, a lot of them actually. They know what I must do. America is broken. Look at the rallies.” And he’s right. I don’t believe any of his appearances this week attracted less than 10,000 people.
“We have walked down a long path and I don’t mean just you and me. Martin Luther King, Malcolm X, W. E. B. Dubois, they all started the path and I can finish it”.
I tell Obama the legend of Amon-Ra, a God of ancient Egypt who attains the characteristics of all other gods. “Sometimes you remind me of him,” I tell him.
Obama smiles and looks out the window. Outside is America; a land that needs a wise and just leader.
He is coming.

The scariest thing is the guy who wrote this claims to be a college professor teaching "THE TRUTH" to his students:
TRUTH FIRST. I am a teacher of history and currently an advisor to President Barack Obama. The Truth must always come first. The African people were the first people on Earth. We created the world's greatest civilizations and learned the ways of the universe. We were Kings and Queens and we explored the world. We must never forget this. Africa is our motherland. It is our destiny. As a college professor it is my responsibility to teach the TRUTH so that my students can pass it down to their children and to generations to come. The TRUTH FIRST always. thetruthfirst@gmail.com
Sounds like a Jefferies Fire People adherent.
I would be tempted to write this off as a prank but his blog goes back over two years. That's a long time to carry on a joke.
