According to a recent poll conducted by Harris Interactive, it looks as if that may be the case. 14 percent of Americans polled, believe that President Barack Obama may be the Antichrist.
This one made me laugh until I tweaked an ab. Of course, me being who I am–I had to shake my head with disgust for multiple reasons. For starters, I’m exhausted with people who believe that the Antichrist is a singular individual, or boogeyman, with a “666″ stamped between his/her/its butt cheeks, so it’s not evident to the rest of the world.
If you look into the polling practice, Harris Polls, an industry leader, has opted for the sensationalist route for many of their online opinion polls. This wasn’t an official poll offered to a group of randoms, seeking valid opinion or belief.
This was one of those ridiculous polls you take when you’re looking to score a bunch of free crap, only to find that you answered everything wrong and have to sign up for “offers from partners” in order to score your 25 dollar gift card to Wal-Mart or the Outback Steakhouse. I made the mistake once, a few years ago. I still want those 8 minutes of my life back.
You have to question such polling practices, especially when they list their results as if they’re fact-based, or even reflect a truth based on popular opinion. If you’ve taken such a poll, do you really look to read the questions, or just click, click, click until you’ve completed the barrage?
I’m sure that if the same poll asked, “‘If not Barack Obama, do you think your 2 year old may be the antichrist?” You’d get similar results.

Greetings: When what is vile among the people is honored, the wicked puff their chest. Since Obama has been elected on a false message of hope and change, the wicked have become more bold in their defiance to Jesus and Gods word. Those who are wise understand, those in the dark are blind to the spirit in which Obama walks. Obama is a bonified liberal. The word liberal also means broad (filthy, tolerance, open minded) Jesus said BROAD is the road that leads to destruction...Obama is a leader of those on the broad road, thus he has no problems lying, no problems scoffing truth, no problem demeaning Isreals leader well winking his eye at Iran and hugging men like Hugo Chavez. Fidel Castro applauded Obama for pushing and passing healthcare, it shows oppresive rulers love Obamas works. An oppressed soul oppresses others. Indeed Obama per scripture is of the evil one. Jesus Christ is the way of TRUE change and hope! God bless!

MISSING THE POINT: I grew up with, lived, and had two companies, that had a server personality disorder. Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) is a very serious issues. With over 50 years of experience and every day of my life dealing with it, it has become very clear to me the our President, Barack Obama, the commander and chief has NPD. If true. as I beleive, these many issues like above will only increase and get more pronounced.

I personally do not belileve that President Obama is the antichrist. I do thinke that he is a liberal, which is only obvious,but thata does not make him the antichrist. Well anyway, he just does not fit the biblical criteria for that position.
