Obama Racks Up Ahmadinejad Endorsement
Now that Barack Obama seems to have the Democratic nomination locked up, Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad wants him to know that he intends to deal very sharply with him when Obama beats a path to his door as he pledged to do as part of his election platform. 
“The United States will have a reduced sphere of influence in the world,” he predicted, adding: “The new president will have to respond to the real demands of the American people: 40 million American citizens do not have health insurance, the victims of the New Orleans hurricane still have no homes.”
In addition, the United States “will have to withdraw the soldiers from Iraq (since) the American people will not tolerate continued spending of billions of dollars on weapons,” said Ahmadinejad, in Rome to attend the UN food agency’s summit on food security.
Asked whether he would negotiate with the new US leadership come January 2009, Ahmadenijad said: “It is they who cut off the links with us, hoping to suffocate us. Today Iran is an advanced country. We are ready for dialogue with anyone, except with the Zionist regime, in relations based on mutual respect and fairness.”
So, in addition to the endorsement of Hamas and the al-Qaeda leadership, Obama has also racked up one from Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. With endorsements like these, how can anybody hope to defeat him?

Ahmadinejad may have an ally in Obama or he may have an Enemy in McCain. Either way the US may be incapacitated by the failing dollar, increasing oil prices and the American media’s hatefest with the ‘war that Bush lied about’. So Ahmadinejad, as much as we despise him, could possibly have his way - except for having the 12th Mahdi crawl out of the well he’s been in since the first century. That’s just NOT going to happen.
I’m waiting for a new video release by Al Jazeera (the official media outlet of Al Qaeda) by Osama bin Laden that also will endorse Barack Hussein Obama Jr.
