Barack Obama Attempting New Campaign Tactic

051407obama.jpg
Barack Obama is mixing the old and the new in this area today. One, he's frolicking around New Jersey trying to get the AFL/CIO to support him and chillin' with Newark's mayor.

Two, he's renaming a local Jewish school after himself:

Akiba Hebrew Academy has received a $5 million gift from the Barrack Foundation. That will result in a change in name from Akiba to the Barrack Hebrew Academy.

Oh, watch out, St. Hillary's.

Don't be silly. Obama is not affiliated in any way with the Barrack Foundation.
