Obama supporters deceived

As one drives around the Avenues area of Salt Lake City, all one sees are Barack Obama signs. Are the people in the Avenues really so uneducated that they perceive Obama to have the judgment, integrity and values to be the next president of this great nation? Is an eloquent speaker really all it takes? Obama sat in the congregation of a racist and hater of America for many, many years. He kicked off an election campaign in the home of an unrepentant terrorist and signed a book for this despicable man. Yet when questioned about all his past relationships, he smiles and cunningly downplays his associations. Obama's own wife has stated on several occasions that she has never been proud to be an American until now. And what about Obama's intention to spread the wealth around? Isn't that really just another name for socialism? Is this what America really wants?
