Peace Everyone,
I will not join in condemning people who are proud of their heritage. I did not come to oppose Obama because of his race. I came to JTF because I believe that Obama is bad for America for several reasons. I do not wish Oprah death or anything of the kind. I just don't watch her show and I don't do business with her advertisers. She may be on the side of evil but that is OK with me. I understand that evil exists in this world for a reason which Hashem knows. Oprah and her show cannot hurt me or my family.
Oprah is plain wrong that this is the greatest event on the planet earth. Anyone with faith knows that the whole reason Hashem created this wonderful planet was to be able to give Chesed {Kindness} to his creation. And the primary reason he didn't destroy all of creation at the time of Noach was because he knew one of his creations by the name of Abraham would be born to bring Hashems presence back to the world. So we believe that the birth of Abraham was the reason the world was created, not for Obama or any other politician.

5:2. There were ten generations from Adam to Noah. This is to teach us the extent of G-d's tolerance; for all these generations angered Him, until He brought upon them the waters of the Flood.
There were ten generations from Noah to Abraham. This is to teach us the extent of G-d's tolerance; for all these generations angered Him, until Abraham came and reaped the reward for them all.
