A Black Columnist on Obama

This is long but worth the reead. J

Ken Blackwell - Columnist for the New York Sun 本科

It's an amazing time to be alive in America . We're in a year of
firsts in this presidential election: the first viable woman
candidate; the first viable African-American candidate; and, a
candidate who is the first front-running freedom fighter over 70. The
next president of America will be a first.

We won't truly be in an election of firsts, however, until we judge
every candidate by where they stand. We won't arrive where we should
be until we no longer talk about skin color or gender. Now that Barack
Obama steps to the front of the Democratic field, we need to stop
talking about his race, and start talking about his policies and his
politics.

The reality is this: Though the Democrats will not have a nominee
until August, unless Hillary Clinton drops out, Mr. Obama is now the
frontrunner, and its time America takes a closer and deeper look at
him. Some pundits are calling him the next John F. Kennedy. He's not.
He's the next George McGovern. And it's time people learned the facts.

Because the truth is that Mr. Obama is the single most liberal senator
in the entire U.S. Senate. He is more liberal than Ted Kennedy, Bernie
Sanders, or Mrs. Clinton. Never in my life have I seen a
presidential frontrunner whose rhetoric is so far removed from his
record. Walter Mond ale promised to raise our taxes, and he lost.
George McGovern promised military weakness, and he lost. Michael
Dukakis promised a liberal domestic agenda, and he lost.

Yet Mr. Obama is promising all those things, and he's not behind in
the polls. Why? Because the press has dealt with him as if he were in
a beauty pageant.. Mr. Obama talks about getting past party, getting
past red and blue, to lead the United States of America . But let's
look at the more defined strokes of who he is underneath this
superficial "beauty."

Start with national security, since the president's most important
duties are as commander-in-chief. Over the summer, Mr. Obama talked
about invading Pakistan, a nation armed with nuclear weapons; meeting
without preconditions with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who vows to destroy
Israel and create another Holocaust; and Kim Jong II, who is murdering
and starving his people, but emphasized that the nuclear option was
off the table against terrorists - something no president has ever
taken off the table since we created nuclear weapons in the 1940s.
Even Democrats who have worked in national security condemned all of
those remarks. Mr. Obama is a foreign-policy novice who would put our
national security at risk.

Next, consider economic policy. For all its faults, our health care
system is the strongest i n the world. And free trade agreements,
created by Bill Clinton as well as President Bush, have made more
goods more afforda ble so that even people of modest means can live a
life that no one imagined a generation ago. Yet Mr. Obama promises to
raise taxes on "the rich." How to fix Social Security? Raise taxes.
How to fix Medicare? Raise taxes. Prescription drugs? Raise taxes.
Free college? Raise taxes. Socialize medicine? Raise taxes. His
solution to everything is to have government take it over. Big Brother
on steroids, funded by your paycheck.

Finally, look at the social issues. Mr. Obama had the audacity to open
a stadium rally by saying, "All praise and glory to God!" but says
that Chris tian leaders speaking for life and marriage have "hijacked"
- hijacked - Chris tianity. He is pro-partial birth abortion, and
promises to appoint Supreme Court justices who will rule any
restriction on it unconstitutional. He espous es the abortion views of
Margaret Sanger, one of the early advocates of racial cleansing. His
spiritual leaders endorse homosexual marriage, and he is moving in
that direction. In Illinois , he refused to vote against a statewide
ban - ban - on all handguns in the state. These are radical left,
Hollywood , and San Francis co values, not Middle America values.

The real Mr. Obama is an easy target for the general election. Mrs.
Clinton is a far tougher opponent. But Mr. Obama could win if people
don't start looking behind his veneer and flowery speeches. His vision
of "bringing America together" means saying that those who disagree
with his agenda for America are hijackers or warmongers. Uniting the
country means adopting his liberal agenda and abandoning any
conflicting beliefs.

But right now everyone is talking about how eloquent of a speaker he
is and - yes - they're talking about his race. Those should never be
the factors on which we base our choice for president. Mr. Obama's
radical agenda sets him far outside the American mainstream, to the
left of Mrs. Clinton.
