The crazy uncles in Obama's attic
Will the black nationalists and white lefties who pushed Obama up the political ladder in Chicago prove to be a liability to his White House run?
By Edward McClelland [2008-03-18]

  • hyde park is...liberal?

    Anyone on Salon ever heard of Milton Friedman?

    Anyone ever BEEN to Hyde Park? Or looked at a demographic map?

    Hyde Park is a 90% white island in the middle of the South Side, much like Columbia University.

    It may be liberal, but the Chicago School of economists is the home of libertarian free market economics.

    It is socially liberal, but fiscally conservative, and therefore as right-wing as it gets.
