That's all there is? Please, tell me the extremists, liars, crackers and other oddball opponents of President Obama aren't relying on the content of the linked video to reveal something sinister about the President, or something we don't know or suspect about his background.
"Now, to be fair, if you tease out the politics here, Obama was taking a more left-wing position than you would probably see him advocating as president. Obama was a moderate and unifying figure, but within the context of a political debate that was fairly radical." (source: New York Magazine)
So, basically, more idiocy from Breitbart's pack of jackals. It's funny to hear them complain about "heavily edited" video, given that deceptively edited video is their only real skill, and I'm pretty sure that people won't be all that offended about how Obama once defended a strong voice in equal treatment for black academics - although it doesn't shock me to see that these clowns find that idea offensive.
In any case, this footage has actually been around for years, so and was shown on PBS, so the whining about how it "wasn't examined" is just flat-out wrong. And yeah, this is just about equal with Breitbart's first vetting article that lied about Saul Alinsky and Studs Terkel.
Good question. Here's what I think. In 2008 who were Obama's political opponents? In the run up to the convention it was mainly Hillary. She had no interest in exposing Obama's radical past because she's as radical as he is. Remember, she is the one who interned with Saul Alinsky one summer while she was in college. To have attacked Obama for his radical associations would have exposed her for the phoney she is. And, of course, Hillary learned the hard way that any attack on Obama was going to be spun as racism.
After Obama won the nomination his political opponent was John "My friend" McCain. He wanted to take the high road and avoid any negative campaigning. So he had no interest in digging into Obama's past, even ignoring his atrocious record on infanticide while Obama served in the Illinois state senate.
I knew Hillary wrote her senior thesis on Alinsky. When did she intern with him? Please provide a link.
The same way the Left has defined Sarah Palin solely by her career as a politician. Gimme a break......
I think the public has defined Sarah Palin by what she has said and done since she was nominated as the GOP Vice Presidential candidate. No need to refer to things such as the "Bridge to Nowhere." What's she's demonstrated about herself is quite daming. As it should be.

All sorts of negative aspersions were cast her way for her daughter, Bristol, giving birth to a child out-of-wedlock.
