Obama will be assassinated if he wins: Nobel winner Lessing

Feb 9 12:58 PM US/Eastern

If Barack Obama becomes the next US president he will surely be assassinated, British Nobel literature laureate Doris Lessing predicted in a newspaper interview published here Saturday.
Obama, who is vying to become the first black president in US history, "would certainly not last long, a black man in the position of president. They would murder him," Lessing, 88, told the Dagens Nyheter daily.

Lessing, who won the 2007 Nobel Literature Prize, said it might be better if Obama's Democratic rival Hillary Clinton were to succeed in her bid to become the first woman president of the United States.

"The best thing would be if they (Clinton and Obama) were to run together. Hillary is a very sharp lady. It might be calmer if she were to win, and not Obama," she said.

What a sad statement on the state of the US (if this were to happen).

White U.S. presidents have been shot and shot at before as well, don't forget, Obama is just as much a white man as he is black, in fact, he was raised in a white environment. Only in his adult life did he find his blackness.

It would be awful if he was shot/attacked because of his black half. That's all.

It would be awful regardless of the reason. There's always been a danger of whack jobs taking shots at the President. Look at John Hinckley.

Unfortunately there is always some wackjob out there that will try something like this. I can just hear the international community tagging us all as racist due to the actions of a deluded nut.

The nobel prize in literature does not qualify some 88 year old Brit to make such a predication. This is just another example of people who are given the spotlight who want to shout out their personal beliefs.

She is a typical out of liberal. That's why I enjoy exposing her warped viewpoints. A president can be shot or shot at anytime for any reason. I seriously doubt the KKK or other racist groups have the balls, intelligence, and the means to do anything. When you examine U.S. presidential assassination attempts, you see mental illness shows up quite a bit.
