Farrakhan Said Don’t Be Pacified By Obama’s Election
Minister Louis Farrakhan was in Memphis, TN telling his followers not to become complacent by Barack Obama’s election and to work to repair communities. Farrakhan said, “This can pacify you and lull you to sleep in a dangerous time, making you think that we live in a post-racial America—when the opposite is true.” His speech was billed as a plan to focus on reducing crime. Farrakhan said, “He’s the American president, not the black president.” Adding, “You may not be pleased with everything he’s saying and doing, but you have to understand that he’s been voted in to take care of the affairs of a nation, and not yours and mine particularly.”
This is a different story Farrakhan was preaching when he addressed his followers February 24, 2008. Obama talks “the Messiah is absolutely speaking.” Farrakhan said of Obama, “You are the instruments that God is going to use to bring about universal change, and that is why Barack has captured the youth. And he has involved young people in a political process that they didn’t care anything about. That’s a sign. When the Messiah speaks, the youth will hear, and the Messiah is absolutely speaking.” Farrakhan said, “Barack Obama to me, is a herald of the Messiah. Barack Obama is like the trumpet that alerts you something new, something better is on the way.” Farrakhan pointed out that the man Nation of Islam followers refer to as “the Savior,” Fard Muhammad, had a black father and a white mother, just as Obama did. Farrakhan suggested he would keep a low profile in the campaign, despite his enthusiasm for Obama. Farrakhan went on to point out that when religious scholars talk about Christ or the Islamic Mahdi, they never talk in racial terms – again, pointing to Obama’s mixed racial background. Farrakhan has said. “This young man is the hope of the entire world that America will change and be made better.”
March 1, 2009 Farrakhan was at it again. Nation of Islam Leader Farrakhan Pushes ‘Obama Energy’ For three hours Farrakhan praised now President where Farrakhan used the election as a launching point for celebration, intellectual discussion and a call to action. Farrakhan said, “There’s an energy among our people that has never been seen before, never produced by any man or organization before.” Even when Obama distanced himself from Farrakhan, his assisting minister Ishmael Muhammad said, “He did not want to say anything the media could use to hurt his (Obama’s) chances to become the president.” Farrakhan told followers to be prepared to make sacrifices as Obama begins work on the faltering economy. Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam have vigorously tried to cozy up to Obama for almost three years and Obama has kept his distance.
Now what has changed Farrakhan’s mind about Obama? Obama’s administration has constantly released statements condemning some of Farrakhan’s past statements. Obama has done the same with Rev. Jeremiah Wright and his controversy. Now you see why Farrakhan is saying, don’t be pacified by Obama’s election? He’s Mad! There was one positive moment at the convention, Former Memphis Mayor Willie Herenton took advantage of the event to gain support for his Democratic primary challenge to U.S. Rep. Steve Cohen, a white congressman who has represented the mostly black House district for two terms. Great move Herenton!
