There's not a chance that Louis Farrakhan was even mentioned for this. First of all, he's Nation of Islam, which is not even a proper Muslim group. (Both Sunni and Shi'ite Muslims consider them heretics, because the NOI believes a guy named Wallace Fard is God.) Second, Farrakhan has said many, many things in the past that are definitely anti-Semitic and anti-Jewish. Jews are an important constituency among Democrats. Third, given all the hooraw over the undeniably false rumor that Obama's a Muslim, do you think that Obama would even go there and give his enemies ammunition?
