In his first major public address since a cancer crisis, Nation of Islam 
Minister Louis Farrakhan said Sunday that presidential candidate Barack Obama is the "hope of the entire world" that the U.S. will change for the better.
The 74-year-old Farrakhan, addressing an estimated crowd of 20,000 people at the annual Saviours' Day celebration, never outrightly endorsed Obama but spent most of the nearly two-hour speech praising the Illinois senator.
"This young man is the hope of the entire world that America will change and be made better," he said. "This young man is capturing audiences of black and brown and red and yellow. If you look at Barack Obama's audiences and look at the effect of his words, those people are being transformed."
Farrakhan compared Obama to the religion's founder, Fard Muhammad, who also had a white mother and black father.
"A black man with a white mother became a savior to us," he told the crowd of mostly followers. "A black man with a white mother could turn out to be one who can lift America from her fall."
Why is this fucker still alive? Why has God not struck him down as he rightfully deserves? Obama has denounced Farrakhan before, and he really can't control who endorses him or not, but if I were Obama, I'd make it very clear that I wasn't going to accept his endorsement.
Next up, the KKK endorses Hillary Clinton!
