History is a much loved hobby of mine, and I love looking at parallels between the past and the present.  Now I must first say that I am not sure I truly believe what I am about to write here.  And the odds of any of this being fact is astronomically small, but it interesting none the less.

   I have read several essays on this subject, but none that truly take the parallels this far, or expounded on them in great detail.  The issue I am talking about is the parallels between Sen. Barack Obama and Adolph Hitler.  First I would like to say that being somewhat of a history buff, the Nazi regime is a subject that I find extremely interesting, and enjoy studying.  Now don't believe for a second that I prescribe to any of Hitler's twisted ideals, but his action and thoughts behind those actions intrigue me.  And as I look at the meteoric rise of Sen. Obama, I see a striking similarity to Hitler's rise to power. 

   Before Hitler became the leader of Germany, he was a relative unknown.  Not many people truly knew what he was about, or what he stood for.  But he could inspire people to do whatever he wanted them to do.  During his speeches, women would often be seen crying and feinting.  Men would shout and cheer, and hang on Hitler’s every word. 

   During the years leading up to his take over, the people of Germany were crying out for "change."  It was only a few years after World War 1, and the people wanted their country to proceed in a different direction.  They disliked the policies of their current government, and were looking forward to the charismatic leader who could lead them back to the economic and cultural power it once was.  And Hitler stepped into the spot light with a message of fundamental change. 

   And he had an enemy to defeat.  An enemy whom he blamed for all of Germany's problems.  He looked to the Jews to bare the blame for the rest of the countries shortcomings. 

   I am sure that anyone reading this knows what happened next.

   Now doesn't this sequence of events sound extremely familiar?  Like events that are currently taking place in the Democratic Party with regards to the candidacy of Sen. Obama. 

   But I am not sure that all these similarities are truly coincidental.  What if there is a deeper meaning behind Sen. Obama's rise to power.  The church that Sen. Obama attends has, as I am sure you all know, some interesting ideals.  Their mission statement talks almost solely about staying true to the black community.  That in itself seems extremely racist, but there is more.  Sen. Obama's church has also given Louis Farrakhan, the man who has stated that the causes of the world’s problems are the Jewish people, their lifetime achievement award. 

   With the similarities between Obama and Hitler, one must ask if it is only events that have taken place around them that is similar.  The fact that even people who are closely involved in the Obama campaign do not know what he truly stands for make me wonder how closely he follows Farrakhan’s ideals. 

   I am not trying to make the claim that Barack Obama is a closet Nazi.  I am not saying that he is for sure an anti-Semite.  But what I am trying to do is urge caution when looking at Sen. Obama as America's savior.  With the parallels I have put forth, people must keep it in the back of their minds that there is the possibility of people that are behind the Obama campaign that are working towards the goal of resurrecting a Nazi like regime in America.

   I am simply concerned for our countries future, and how quickly people are jump on the Obama band wagon.  Very similar events occurred during Hitler's rise, and I want to urge people to ask themselves what is it truly they see in Obama.  A very charismatic man who is going to change the country.  Or a charismatic speaker who people truly know nothing about, and has extremely powerful friends with an agenda.
