Obama: 'Tea Party core thinks I am socialist, and not an american'

President Barack Obama says he believes the Tea Party
is built around a "core group" of people who question whether he is a
U.S. citizen and believe he is a socialist.

But beyond that, Obama tells NBC he
recognizes the movement involves "folks who have legitimate concerns"
about the national debt and whether the government is taking on too many
difficult issues simultaneously.

In an interview broadcast Tuesday on NBC's "Today" show, Obama said he feels "there's
still going to be a group at their core that question my legitimacy."
But he said he didn't want to paint Tea Party activists "in broad brushes" and he hopes
to win over members who have "mainstream, legitimate concerns."

Wrong on the facts, and finish with a delusion.

Telling me I have to buy some product by federal law, and enforced by federal means MAKES you a socialist.

Birthers are moronic. But Mr Prez you said this core BOTH believes you are what you are AND were not born here. COMPLETELY wrong.

As for winning over people who think you are going to create a fundamentally socialist milieu here, WHAT ARE YOU REALLY SMOKING? It is AS LIKELY to see you convinced that Reagan had all the right ideas.
