Obama: wealth redistributor
http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.p...w&pageId=93670
also includes a revealing snippet from a 2001 interview Obama gave in which he basically laments the fact that the government and constitution established by the founding fathers doesn't jibe with his idea of "economic justice"

The 16th amendment was passed after 2001?

Let me rephrase: The issue was already irrelevant.

Ummm, he's lamenting what the Warren Court didn't do, 50-60 years AFTER the 16th ammendment.

Here's the original audio that Cali linked to when this issue came up during the campaign.
He does stop just short of saying he wishes the Warren Court would've delved into those issues. But it's clear it isn't because he doesn't think those issues should be addressed, but that he doesn't think the court would be successful in doing so. He clearly is interested in "economic justice" whether through the court or the legislature. Hard to come away from listening to that with any other conclusion than Obama has some socialist views. [*Cue Cali Coug "socialism" definitional rant.]

I wonder how bad it looks for the lower and middle classes in terms of real income growth if you subtract out all the illegal immigrants.
