Washington, Sep 9 (IANS) US President Barack Obama has said that if he could have dinner with anyone, dead or alive, it would be Mahatma Gandhi, adding he is 'a real hero of mine'.
Obama had gone to Wakefield High School in Arlington to give a speech welcoming students back to school, when he took a few questions from ninth-graders.
Lily, a student, asked: 'And if you could have dinner with anyone, dead or alive, who would it be?'
'Well, you know, dead or alive, that's a pretty big list,' Obama was quoted as saying by Los Angeles Times Wednesday.
'You know, I think that it might be Gandhi, who is a real hero of mine.'
Obama said: 'Now, it would probably be a really small meal because, he didn't eat a lot.'
'But he's somebody who I find a lot of inspiration in. He inspired Dr. (Martin Luther) King, so if it hadn't been for the non-violent movement in India, you might not have seen the same non-violent movement for civil rights here in the United States.'
Obama told the students that Gandhi represents the power of change through ethics and how to use that morality to foster change, themes he has repeated through his presidential campaign and administration.
Facing sharp divisions in Congress and within his own Democratic Party, Obama stressed Gandhi's fighting spirit and will to overcome long odds.
Gandhi helped 'people who thought they had no power realise that they had power and then helped people who had a lot of power realise that if all they're doing is oppressing people, then that's not a really good exercise of power'.

not surprising, both enjoy keeping quite while non-Muslims are slaughtered. One supported Khilafat Movement and other supporting Jihadi Intifada.

How did the resulting zero end up larger than the two input zeros? It should be 0+0=0!
PS: Now I get it... They are a Big zero!

Didnt Gandhi say Blacks were inferior?

I have not come across any such statement. However I recall long back some smalltime leftist writer vaguely hinting something like this without proper reference and context and based only on some distant circumstancial evidence.
-
Gandhi was much different. Obama can be sHitler, but not Gandhi.
-
I wonder if they'd sip "ghandi soda" at the shared meal?

Yes (http://www.vho.org/tr/2004/2/Kemp184-186.html).

I'm surprised he didn't pick Ayatollah Khomeini or Yasser Arafat.

Sure. Because Obama never says what he truly thinks. ;D

Because, those would be his obvious choices and he is trying to come across as a "man of peace", who in his mind, believes that he is the only man in the World that has the ability to unite all people.
So, in his demented mind, Ghandi sounds more mainstream and/or appropriate to him.
Especially after the response he received after he "bowed down" to King Abdullah.

Never forget that old bigot Rev. Wright. I'm sure he will always have a special place in Obama's black as night heart.

True.
I believe that in the short time that Obama has been on the national political scene, we have all been able to determine what he is really about.
His associations, actions, and loyalties more than signal what his true beliefs are.

So true. Obama's company is indeed a group of racist, con men, thieves, ant-Americans, etc. I fear the worse are still to appear.

RanterM,
No doubt.
I, also, think that this is only the start of the "Audacity" that is Obama.

Blacks and liberals as a whole love to name Gandhi or MLK as their heroes. What nonsense.

Don't worry, he won't be forgotten. >:(

I actually thought of Rev Wright the other day. I was in a public restroom and someone before me had not flushed the toilet.

Because, in their warped minds, by citing MLK or Gandhi , they believe that they will come across as "moderates" to the masses.
But, nothing could be further from the truth.

These are scary times. We don't need Gandhi. We need a cross between Rambo and Ronald Reagan.

Sadly, there isn't anybody on our political horizon that even comes near to a Rambo/Reagan type of person.
And, that is what has brought us, in America, to people, voting in such an egotistical fool as the POTUS.

Indeed. But not The Terminator from the first one, as he was a bad guy.

The bad one would certainly help ;D

No doubt.
Also, for sure, Obama is many peoples' "antihero".

By the time Obama leaves office, he will be Jimmy Carter's hero, as the peanut farmer will pass the torch over for worst president ever.

I agree with you.
Obama makes Carter's tenure look like a success.

EuroCommunist politicians under desperation seem to be making friendship with Gandhi. However if they go on fasting in public for 30 days, it may serve them better.
;D

Gandhi faced the wrath of Godse,Obama will face wrath of G-d?
