Setting the Record Straight

Apparantly the GOP machine has already started muck-rucking about Obama, and a number of silly and baseless rumors have been circulating on email and elsewhere. I won't repeat any of the smears, because I don't believe it is useful to do so, but if you have heard something you find bizarre or disturbing about Barack Obama, there is a good chance that you've heard a rumor.

Luckily, here is a page from Barack's website that clarifies these nasty lies and provides information, photos, video, and data to show the truth. Barack Obama is an American citizen, born in Hawaii in 1961. He is a Christian and was sworn into the US Senate using his family Bible. His books and writings are not racist and do not pigeon-hole people into relegated roles based on race or any other physical or socioeconomic attributes: his writing and message transcends this type of petty categorization and power hierarchy.
