Oh-kay.
Just wondering the significance of this?
That is to say:
If I am supposed to jibe with the ganda of the "questionable ethics" [suggested]-
What, and then how, does one 'icon' differ from some other?
If I am supposed to jibe with the ganda of the "grassroot revolutionist"[suggested]-
What, and then how, does one 'icon' differ from some other?
Point being that the clip doesn't tell me anything about Barack Obama one way or the other-for all we are talking about somones's "true colors"(?)
We are looking at a volunteer campaign office in Houston TX, which is about all that it has to do with Barack Obama. What whoever staffs that office has on the wall also has nothing to do with Barack Obama.
Whether I like the guy or not, it's not-nor would be-because of a flag on the wall of a volunteer campaign office-I wouldn't care if there was a picture of Tyrone the Crackhead (http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=1003003) on the wall (Actually I'd find that really hilarious!).

It appears that someone either provided an office to the campaign that was already in use--or if opened by the official campaign--decorated as it were by someone with bad taste---
As I have said---just like many conservatives--many liberals do some damn stupid things and having that flag up on the wall is a pretty damn stupid considering Che is a highly controversial figure--and it provided an opportunity for some conservative group to make hay with the video.
I would bet dimes to donuts that if you go to that office today--that flag is long gone!!!
But to say that its presence somehow has any direct connection to Barak Obama is simply something that cannot be assumed---there was really not enough information provided in that short segment to make any kind of determination what was up--like whose office is that? Who rented it?? etc.
I can tell you---from doing work for many political campaigns over the years---office space for campaigns are usually provided by organizations, lawyers, building owners, etc.---
The office looked rather settled---not one that had been vacant and desks and such just moved in for the campaign.
