| One of the Best Each week we provide you with one of the week's most thought provoking articles. | Yes, Barack Obama really is a Manchurian candidate by David Kupelian "If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide." Abraham Lincoln As Election Day rapidly approaches, many Americans are wondering why so many of their countrymen reject a genuine war hero with decades of experience, one whose pro-life, limited-government values pretty much reflect those of Middle America. Instead, these same countrymen are enthralled with a man who not only has no qualifications for the job, but who is, in fact, the most radically left-wing major-party presidential candidate of our lifetime, having been mentored and supported for decades by terrorists (Ayers), communists (Davis), America-hating racists (Wright) and criminals (Rezko). Doesn't make much sense, does it? After all, in past presidential contests, Americans have flatly rejected ultraliberal candidates like McGovern, Mondale and Dukakis and those guys weren't nearly as radicalized as Obama, who the nonpartisan National Journal rates as having the most left-wing voting record in the entire U.S. Senate even more so than socialist Bernie Sanders! Moreover, recently it's been proven, despite his campaign's denials, that Obama was indeed a member of the socialist "New Party." And Obama himself confesses that during his college days he intentionally sought out Marxists as friends. So, how do we explain all this? Why are so many of us eager to turn our nation, the greatest and noblest on earth, over to an angry-at-America, hardcore left-wing "change agent" who will with the help of a like-minded, Democrat-dominated Congress and a liberal-activist federal judiciary bring about radical "change" to every area of our lives?

* The Syrian regime has indicated its preference for Obama. Buthaina Shaaban, an adviser to President Bashar al-Assad, has written: "The change suggested by Obama is essential not only for the U.S. but for the entire human family."
* Libyan leader Muammar al-Qaddafi called Obama "a Muslim" and said: "All the people in the Arab and Muslim world and in Africa applauded this man. They welcome him and prayed for his success," although Qaddafi also expressed criticism of Obama's comments on the future of Jerusalem.
* Hamas political adviser Ahmed Yousef said this year: "We like Mr. Obama and we hope that he will win the election."
* Hezbollah's second in command, Sheik Naim al-Kassim, urged Americans to vote for Obama as a step toward peace with Islam, and pro-Hezbollah columnist Amal Saad-Ghorayeb said there is "no doubt Arabs should welcome an Obama presidency," according to Taheri.
* In Saudi Arabia, commentator Hussein Shobokshi wrote that an Obama presidency "would mark an important moral transformation in the superpower and is a healthy indicator of the long-awaited improvement in the international arena." Some columnists also have noted Obama's close ties to several Palestinian radicals, including Columbia University Prof. Rashid Khalidi — former communications director for the Palestinian Liberation Organization — and another Palestinian political activist, the late Edward Said. The "Arab street" also favors Obama. Recent surveys found that he is the preferred candidate in Egypt, Jordan, Morocco, Algeria, Syria, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates. God says: "I will surely gather them from all the lands where I banish them in my furious anger and great wrath; I will bring them back to this place and let them live in safety. They will be my people, and I will be their God. I will give them singleness of heart and action, so that they will always fear me for their own good and the good of their children after them."… "I will send my terror ahead of you and throw into confusion every nation you encounter. I will make all your enemies turn their backs and run." (Jeremiah 32:37-39; Exodus 23:27). The Jerusalem Connection says: Regardless of the outcome of the election on Tuesday, God's people must remember, "The LORD has established His throne in heaven and His kingdom rules over all." (Psalm 103:19). Still we must fervently pray (and I would suggest fast) and vote for the candidate whose views we know would more closely be aligned with Holy Scripture. God bless you as you seek His will and vote. May God have mercy us! | Vote Values on November 4th
