CHICAGO - In his first major public address since a cancer crisis, Nation of Islam Minister Louis Farrakhan said Sunday that presidential candidate Barack Obama is the "hope of the entire world" that the U.S. will change for the better.
The 74-year-old Farrakhan, addressing an estimated crowd of 20,000 people at the annual Saviours' Day celebration, never outrightly endorsed Obama but spent most of the nearly two-hour speech praising the Illinois senator.
"This young man is the hope of the entire world that America will change and be made better," he said. "This young man is capturing audiences of black and brown and red and yellow. If you look at Barack Obama's audiences and look at the effect of his words, those people are being transformed."

Thanks, but I can’t take credit for it. I heard it on Rush. Some newspaper columnist called Hussein the “Magic Negro”, and Rush ran with it!
Farrakhan's endorsement of Hussein Obama won't damage his chances at all, IMO. Liberals (especially the Democrat voters I've come across) are totally naive regarding the true intentions of Islamists. For example, a dyed-in-the-wool Democrat "friend" of mine thinks I'm crazy when I tell him the truth about Islam. He vehemently believes they're not a threat to our country and the rest of the free world, but our "Nazi-like" incursions into the middle east to "steal the oil" and "killing innocent civilians" is.
I.E., our brave soldiers and Marines are the true terrorists of the world, and the poor, "misunderstood" Muslims are the victims. This is what the average Obama (and Hillary) voter believes. The rest simply do not know the difference between a Mormon and a Muslim, nor do they care.
Farrakhan: Imam to the White House? *shudder*
This should convince millions of Americans not to vote for Obama. It should. It won’t. Too many see Farrakhan as just another downtrodden minority group member in need of special privileges.
No clear-thinking person would vote for anyone endorsed by this racist, White and Jew hater.
It’s just another peel around the banana but as all of it comes off the exposer becomes more clear, this banana is rotten.
Doesn’t it scare anybody that obama plans on changing the world? We need to be very afraid.
I believe you are correct.
“The photos sealed it for me that Obama is a Muslim.”
Here is a photo of Bush wearing a yarmulke. Does that mean Bush is Jewish?

Does anyone know where exactly the photo was taken?
It is very important to note that Barack Obamas pastor at Trinity United Church, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, is good friends with Farrakhan and this addition support by Calypso Louie can spell the end of the Obama campaign if he does not immediately repudiate this man and his hate.
Yes, Jews have crashed planes into buildings killing 3000 people in the name of Yahweh...thanks for the update.
That would be a Muslim racist, i believe. I can’t imagine a worse endorsement for Obamanation.
Christian whites are not mentioned in Muzzieland except as potential dhimmis or the blessed dead.
I’m beginning to get the impression that if Obama doesn’t get nominated there will be rioting.
And if he does get nominated and then loses, there will be rioting. America is going to get blackmailed into getting a black persident.
