How Obama replaced Christ among blacks
Exclusive: Jesse Lee Peterson asserts minorities have found 'a physical messiah'

President Barack Obama is the most divisive man to ever occupy the White House –period! Yet, 95 percent of black Americans worship him as if he’s the messiah. Why?

Actor and comedian Jamie Foxx recently took the stage at the Soul Train Awards and told the audience, “Thank God, and our lord and savior, Barack Obama!” Foxx called on the audience to stand up and clap for Obama. His outrageous remarks were broadcast on national television, yet not one nationally known black leader repudiated Foxx.




Barack Obama’s ability to seduce people is well-known. He can bring his biggest critics into a room and have them coming out singing his praises. He’s a charismatic and congenital liar. In 2012, Obama was able to gather young people, cater to their egos by offering them free stuff and convince them that they were wiser than the older generation – and smarter than that old “blue-eyed Republican.”

Black America’s journey from slavery to freedom is well-documented. Yet despite their emancipation by President Lincoln more than a century earlier, blacks in the South were still subject to discrimination. During this era arose Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., a leader black Americans had put all their hopes into. The subsequent assassination of Martin Luther King was traumatic for Americans, but especially for black Americans.

After King’s assassination, blacks were in a spiritual no-man’s land – and they’ve been wandering and waiting for another savior for the last 50 years. They turned to the government for assistance and received government programs and general relief (welfare). The black father was replaced by a government check – and black men made babies and started abandoning their families.

Jesse Lee Peterson’s book mercilessly exposes popular black “icons” – “Scam: How the Black Leadership Exploits Black America”

They followed self-appointed black leaders like Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Louis Farrakhan and the Congressional Black Caucus, but all failed them. Now most blacks think Obama is that savior who will give them jobs, pay off their mortgages and “spread the wealth” – and that’s why they give glory to their “lord and savior.”

Most black preachers and leaders secretly agree with Jamie Foxx, which is why there was no outcry from these people. Never mind that Obama stands for everything that is godless, i.e.: unfettered abortions, class warfare, amnesty for illegals, legalizing same-sex marriage, revoking DADT (weakening the U.S. Armed Forces) and lack of resolve in his support for Israel.

An example of blacks being addicted to leaders and personalities is the tragic tale of Jim Jones and his followers. Jones was the charismatic cult leader best known for the mass suicide he orchestrated in Guyana in 1978 that killed 914 of his followers (including more than 200 children). And most of Jones’ followers were black Christians! Blacks were attracted to Jones because of his charismatic preaching style and socialist philosophy. He convinced his followers that he was creating a heaven on Earth where people of all races would live together peacefully and have their needs met in his “Jonestown.” The world found out, albeit too late, that he was a lunatic!

For the past 22 years, I’ve been saying that the problem with black Americans is not white racism – but rather the lack of moral character! Until 50 years ago most black Americans were moral. They had faith in God and treated people the way they wanted to be treated. They believed in the promise of America – that if you worked hard and lived right, things would work out for the best.

In stark contrast, most blacks today are looking for Barack Obama and the federal government to take care of them. Before the civil-rights movement, nobody – not even the president – could have come in as the “lord and savior” of the black community.

Recently on my radio show, a black caller admitted that blacks believe that Obama is “God.” I also interviewed professor Barbara Thompson of Florida A&M University and author of “The Gospel According to Apostle Barack: In Search of A More Perfect Political Union As Heaven Here on Earth.” When I questioned her about her Christianity she got huffy and irritated. According to the professor, “Apostle Barack” was re-elected to help middle-class and poor Americans experience heaven on Earth! Listen to the interview here.

As a result of the man not being the spiritual head, the black community is subject to lies and false saviors. Blacks have been looking for a physical messiah and have forgotten that Christ has already come and made a way for them to be free. Now that Obama has been re-elected, this is the perfect time to re-establish moral clarity. And it is time to rebuild men and families and draw closer to God.

Sad story.

Not all black Americans are Christians.
Of those who are Christians, not all are calling President Obama their messiah.

Peterson claims that most black preachers agree with Jamie Foxx.
Oh? Has Peterson talked to most black preachers? What evidence does he have to support such a claim?

On the same token, have YOU talked to most black preachers?
What evidence do YOU have to dispute such a claim?

What evidence do YOU, are any, have that proves there is a majority of blacks who put Christ ABOVE Obama...
besides with lipservice, when caught like a "deer in the headlights"
when asked why they would support someone who woos them against christian values.

I agree that quite a few black leaders exploit blacks...
including comedians and many other entertainers.

It's comparable to the "Jim Jones" cult.

It is a religion of a sort.

I believe that more white americans actually receive welfare and food stamps than black americans, at least the numbers are close but there are numerous rural whites in poverty

I do not see Obama faltering in support of Israel. Not that I agree with him on everything, but on that item I don't see a problem - now.

I think the recent UN debacle cleared up any mystery there - if he could have come out with even stronger support that would be nice.....but I am not sure how he would have done that


Obama's policies on energy for example, will end our dependenc on OPEC and that actually weakens the power of many Arab nations - even so I see it as a business decision and hope we will continue to work with OPEC nations who themselves are starting to explore renewable energy technology. I don't see our energy policy as an Arab/Israeli support issue, but I think it shows no favoritism to arab nations on behalf of the prez. In fact, he has relentlessly pursued muslim terrorists in justice

I dont know why , but My gut tells me I may be the only 'black' person here who has even spoken to or intimately known more than a handful of black people in their life

so I will put it simply, AS AN ACTUAL BLACK PERSON, with black loved ones across the country, having visited several black churches

NO. Black people dont by any rule place anyone above Christ

they do seem to , however, constantly have to be representative of EVERY black person whenever they speak,, even when they are making a living being satirical or funny

and the most idiotic statements any of them make become 'factual documentation' of the black consciousness for far too many who are far too quick to want to believe it,,,

,,now THAT is sad,,,,,

Wow, what fallacies of logic.

First, Peterson's op-ed piece is a commentary, not a news report.
Peterson made the claim that most black preachers agree with Jamie Foxx. If he had cited the result of a survey, then I might have reason to believe him, but he didn't. He didn't cite any evidence to support his claim. It isn't up to me to prove his claim to be false. It is up to him to prove his claim to be true.

Second, I did not say that a majority of blacks put Christ above Obama. I made no such claim. I said that not all black Americans are Christians, which is true, because some black Americans are Muslims. Of black Americans who are Christians, I said that not of them are calling President Obama their messiah, which is also true, because I happen to know black Americans who are Christians, and they don't call President Obama their messiah.

It's hard to take anything seriously that is on WND.

The merits or flaws of Peterson's commentary don't depend on what website published his commentary.

However, I understand what you mean. WND seems to be the website that people turn to whenever they want to bash Barack Obama.

WND is a hardcore conservative site against Obama/liberals/anything not conservative enough. So yes, it's hard to take anything seriously coming from that site.

Also, have you noticed that those who call Obama a messiah are the ones who hate him?

with the exception of a handfull or less of comedians

I have noticed its his haters that insist he is someones messiah,,,

I suspect Foxx was just trying to get a laugh...

me too,,,,

Here is excerpt from the OP:



In my previous posts, I did not deny that some black American may perceive President Obama as being "a physical messiah". I merely pointed out that not all black Americans do.

In his op-ed piece, Peterson states the following:



I do not dispute what Peterson says in the above quote, because he is reciting what others told him.

[Post repeat deleted.]

Barack is more white than black I think. Raised by a white family, he knows very little about the plight of most blacks. He comes to power on the shoulders of Caucasian Banksters and powerful royalty.

Yes, Blacks were very proud to have a black President, but they have been deceived. Barack is of royal blood and is half white. He would have never been placed into that position otherwise.

ITS CALLED SARCASM FOLKS, DON'T GET SO EXCITED.

I think that's true with everyone....

Everytime he opens his mouth to speak people say "Oh my God, he's at it again!"

What I find interesting is that you already had a tread on Jamie Foxx worshiping and being obsessed with President Obama, now a thread on all Blacks worshiping Obama. As I can recall, it was Hannity who first coined the phrase that now many have adapted. Im wondering if you are the one obsessed with him.
