In his first major public address since a cancer crisis, Nation of Islam Minister Louis Farrakhan said Sunday that presidential candidate Barack Obama is the “hope of the entire world” that the U.S. will change for the better.

“This young man is the hope of the entire world that America will change and be made better,” he said. “This young man is capturing audiences of black and brown and red and yellow. If you look at Barack Obama’s audiences and look at the effect of his words, those people are being transformed.”

He went on to compare Obama with Nation of Islam founder Fard Muhammad, who also had a white mother and a black father.

“A black man with a white mother became a savior to us,” he told the crowd of mostly followers. “A black man with a white mother could turn out to be one who can lift America from her fall.”

It’s a real ringing endorsement to have a racist thug like Farrakhan sing your praises. The real change we need in this country is for people to reject idiots like Farrakhan instead of gathering to hear him speak.
