So he was quite politically calculating enough? My guess is that Obama went to church for his kids and sat there daydreaming about conquering the world and becoming president the whole time. Like Bill Mahar, I hope he is lying about being a real Christian. When it came out he played politics and was politically calculating.

I don't know enough about Ayer's educational policies to have an opinion. But I do have an opinion about the people Ayers was fighting against who were acting against our best interest in South East Asia. They were not only wrong, they light babies on fire by the thousands on their illegal, and unsanctioned by the American people, air raids. They were destroying our country and any claim we could have to a higher ground than the communists. They did much more to ruin the kind of America that I want to live in then the Weather Underground, as misguided in their actions as I believe they were. >
