Remember Jimmy Carter’s meeting with Hamas terrorist leaders in April 2008? The same meeting that prompted a top figure in the group’s political bureau stated, “Political isolation of Hamas by the American administration has begun to crumble”? It was a foregone conclusion that Carter would endorse Barack Hussein Obama, and now that he has, what will Obama do? Accept support from the former president, who defied the State Department to meet with Hamas terrorists, or will Obama throw Carter under the bus?
From the Associated Press:
ATLANTA – Former President Carter said Tuesday he will endorse Democrat Barack Obama after the last two states vote.
“The fact is the Obama people already know they have my vote when the polls close tonight,” Carter told The Associated Press after speaking at the Georgia World Congress Center Tuesday afternoon.
His comments came as Obama clinched the nomination, according to a tally of convention delegates by The Associated Press.
Carter, a super delegate, has remained officially neutral in the race but has offered strong hints that he would end up in Obama’s corner. He has noted that his children, grandchildren and their spouses back the Illinois senator.
Carter also recently urged Obama’s rival, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, to abandon her White House bid in early June at the latest.
The former president had been one of the highest profile Democrats who had yet to make a pick in the long presidential primary.
His spokeswoman, Deanna Congilio, said there were no plans for any additional statement.
South Dakota and Montana were holding the last primaries.

Why should Obama turn on Carter??? President Carter is an American with loyalty to no other country. Why shouldn’t he be allowed to express his opinion. Why shouldn’t he be working toward what is best for AMERICA rather than podunk Israel which is the terrorist engine of the world.
The only reason Obama would have to throw Carter under the bus is because the damn jews control the democratic party with their money and their loyalty is to Israel. May God push it and them into the sea.
Carter’s policies are a lot better for America than those of Jewish Zionists and this Jewish neocon White House. Throw the Jewish Zionists under the bus and good riddance to their money and influence in our government and we’ll be a lot better off.

Well if Carter and you share any sentiments, Obama will certainly have to disassociate himself with the pro-Palestine, pro-Hamas terrorist ex-President

The United States is in absolutely urgent need of a new Constitutional Amendment that blocks any politician from either running for or holding an office within the Executive Branch of the US govermment that has 1-)voluntarily aligned themselves at any time personally or professionally with a terrorist or jihadist organization (and this would include receiving camapign financing from any Middle Eastern terrorism organizations which include Hezbollah or the Muslim Brotherhood among dozens of others classified as such) 2-)has voluntarily aligned themselves at any time with any type of criminal network that operates outside the legal system 3-)has voluntarily aligned themselves at any time with any organization that has advocated and/or actively worked towards the overthrow of the US government 4-)has voluntarily at any time allied themselves with any strongly violent or anti-Semitic group (including for example the KKK).
There is nothing that I know of that could prevent such a socio-political catastrophe from occurring in the US (electing a president or other high-ranking official who has ties to the global jihad and intends for the destruction of the USA from within)and the leaders of the Muslim world are almost certainly aware of this and thus probably planning to take full advantage of this failing within the US’ political structure. Once upon a time America would not have needed this sort of Constiotutional Amendment. Social ostracization in America no longer is sufficient as a political firewall. Alas.
I am personally now quite sure Senator Obama is a Muslim with ties to terror (along with his wife and his “pastor”). He must NOT be allowed to take the office of the presidency and he sure as heck should never have been permitted tohold the office of senator either. (As for our ex-peanut vendor Carter, he’s pretty much a spent political force–luckily).
It is not possible to exaggerate the seriousness of this situation.
