OBAMA'S REAL MESSAGE

Yesterday, Investor's Business Daily published "Barack Obama's Stealth Socialism," the first installment in the series "The Audacity of Socialism." Excerpt:
During his NAACP speech earlier this month, Sen. Obama repeated the term at least four times. "I've been working my entire adult life to help build an America where economic justice is being served," he said at the group's 99th annual convention in Cincinnati.
