New evidence has emerged that Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama was closely associated as early as age 25 to a key adviser to a Saudi billionaire who had mentored the founding members of the Black Panthers. In a videotaped interview this year on New York’s all news cable channel NY1, a prominent African-American businessman and political figure made the curious disclosures about Obama. (See Video Clip Below) Percy Sutton, the former borough president of Manhattan, off-handedly revealed the unusual circumstances about his first encounter with the young Obama. “I was introduced to (Obama) by a friend who was raising money for him,” Sutton told NY1 city hall reporter Dominic Carter. “The friend’s name is Dr. Khalid al-Mansour, from Texas,” Sutton said. “He is the principal adviser to one of the world’s richest men. He told me about Obama.” Sutton, the founder of Inner City Broadcasting, said al-Mansour contacted him to ask a favor: Would Sutton write a letter in support of Obama’s application to Harvard Law School? “He wrote to me about him,” Sutton recalled. “And his introduction was there is a young man that has applied to Harvard. I know that you have a few friends up there because you used to go up there to speak. Would you please write a letter in support of him?” Sutton said he acted on his friend al-Mansour’s advice. “I wrote a letter of support of him to my friends at Harvard, saying to them I thought there was a genius that was going to be available and I certainly hoped they would treat him kindly,” Sutton told NY1. Sutton did not say why al-Mansour was helping Obama, how he discovered him, or from whom he was raising money on Obama’s behalf.

It's a lengthy article but need to read.
Thread with the video by Percy Sutton is here. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2415773/posts
Saudis in general seem to have too much influence on our presidents, Bush too. I’m not a big conspiracy guy but I wonder how much harder it could be for a non-Saudi connected person to win the presidency? I would be surprised to find that Sarah Palin has any Saudi connections. She may need us with our pitchforks to get there. Yup, revolution might be in the air by 2012.
Sutton died a couple of days ago.
To whom is he principle advisor? There’s the thread that needs pulling...
Keep digging, ye sons of freedom. Obama’s whole background has been obscured on purpose as to avoid the finding of nuggets of truth as to his supporters/manipulators. You have to admit their choice of this manchurian candidate was right on; now we have to unwind it and take it down, piece by piece, thru the democratic and legal process, as quickly as possible before any more damage is done. And let the vetting process regarding any future candidates (or current ones for that matter) begin with true transparency as to avoid these kinds of catastrophes in the future.

Sutton’s death is widely celebrated as an event long overdue. Percy is a criminal, race hustler and a scam artist. His death is addition by subtraction.
This is something I knew about before Nov 2008. I probably read about it here.
book mark
Which is exactly the type of person with whom Obama surrounds himself.
And the reason why I heard about this over a year ago is because this story was published over a year ago.

(lots of articles about this fella and Obama back in Aug, Sep, Oct 2008)
*ping*
Making Obama the Mansourian candidate. Explains the bowing and scraping doesn't it?
“This is something I knew about before Nov 2008.”
Me, too. Waiting for more/better info on it.
Khalid al Mansour’s birth name is Donald Warden, a lawyer and black nationalist associated with the Black Panthers, whose founders Huey Newton and Bobby Seale he mentored.
He is an advisor to al-Waleed bin Talal bin Abdul Aziz al Saud, the guy whose check Rudy Guiliani refused to accept after 9/11 because it was an insult. Talal is known for funding islamic centers at US ivy league schools, and for having extensive dealings in Africa.
You say, “...And let the vetting process regarding any future candidates begin with true transparency as to avoid these kinds of catastrophes in the future....”
Agreed.
I think states should immediately enact laws not allowing any candidate to run in their state on a national or state level who has not provided a VERIFIED BIRTH CERTIFICATE.
“Obama’s whole background has been obscured on purpose as to avoid the finding of nuggets of truth as to his supporters/manipulators.”
No doubt about that. He’s afraid that his carefully constructed house of cards will come crashing down if just one card is pulled out.
I was surprised that this had not been posted on FR. I came upon it by a thread re Percy Sutton’s death.
