So-called professionals in the politically correct news media have tried hard to tell us what the relevant facts are about Barack Obama. My questions to Obama: Was your surrogate father Frank Marshall Davis a communist? Why would anyone want to apply Marxist doctrine to America? How close are you to your cousin Raila Odinga who fought to replace the Kenyan constitution with Sharia law? What do you mean by "economic justice"?

What is the cost and how will you redistribute America's wealth to accomplish the policies you are proposing: universal health care, free college tuition, universal national service, universal 401(k), free job training, wage insurance, free child care, more subsidized housing, bigger earned income tax credit for the "working poor," and a global poverty act? What military funding will you cut to pay for these programs? How much of your campaign funding comes from outside the United States? What has prepared you to strongly represent America in the high-stakes world of international power? Will you always put America first?

Big media has had two years to give us answers and set the record straight, but we have to buy books and search the Internet to find out.
