Much has been made of Senator Obama's post-collegiate experience as a "Community Organizer" in Black (Negro) areas of the vast Chicago Southside. At the Republican Convention, the mere concept obtained some 'mileage' as a source for humor. The idea of an Ivy League College boy coming, full of the Leftwing theories & notions so popular in certain Colleges and Universities in post McKinley America, to tell those living in a large ethnic community how to organize that community is, admittedly, inherently funny. It is not humor in any way peculiar to the racial makeup of south Chicago; indeed, no different from that found in the idea of a White Sociology major from an 'ivy towered' Northern academy, going into a remote small White community in the Southern hills, to tell the rooted inhabitants how to solve social "problems," which they may not see as problems.
While the few real Conservatives who still attend Republican Conventions--and we consider the Vice Presidential candidate one such--certainly enjoyed the good natured humor at the Senator's expense; outside the Convention, the Conservative focus on the subject was somewhat different. There--as here--there was more real concern at the young Obama's sense of direction; at his Marxist mentors; at the real immediate--as opposed to stated--objectives of his organizing effort. Can anyone trust one who, not so long ago, was clearly in the ideological camp which gave the world both the Communist and Nazi revolutions? And yet, there may be still more significant aspects to the subject of an outside community organizer, which have been given very little, if any, attention. It is those aspects to which we would now draw attention.

I sure hope that the massive ACORN voter fraud has helped teach folks what being a community organizer is all about.
Community organizers are nothing but self-ordained racketeers. They are not elected; they use blackmail and power brokering to further their objectives. They operate out of fear and hate-mongering.
Our government needs to take away all non-profit tax exempt status of groups which participate IN ANY WAY in politics. These communist organizations are, in fact, breaking the law by using 501 status in a political way.
A lady on Tom Baurle’s program (WBEN) just had a great question for the country. Essentially she said, why should we make this man president when he couldn’t even pass the guidelines for the hiring of an FBI agent.

Churchs?
Yes, that includes churches.
If they have any program or speaker which is about politics, they should LOSE their tax exempt status. Period.
Two areas where the Federal Government has failed the American people:
(1) Not enforcing our immigration laws
(2) Granting communist/socialist fronts tax exampt status, and giving them tax-payers money
My article traces the history of this sort of abuse, as it has in the past proven a decided set back for the families now in the Southside Chicago community that Obama sought to make over.
Yes, Obama is a Leftist. But my point is that it is meddlesome arrogance at best, to do what he did, and now brags about.
And I hope it puts to rest the obnoxious baloney the left tried to pull after the conventions, that Jesus was a community organizer, as this stuff is the last thing He would be involved in.
The man is no more a harbinger of good than was Karl Marx, Lenin, Trotsky or Hitler (four other reformers, who claimed the right to pontificate to the world).
