Contrary to what the left-wing media would have you believe, Barack Obama didn’t just casually run into ACORN and walk the other way. He’s been involved with the radical, corrupt organization for years.

Here’s a flashback to December 1, 2007, before ACORN was a household name and association was essentially political suicide. In the video Obama promises ACORN that, as president, he’ll be calling on the group to help shape the national agenda.

ACORN is part of Obama’s constituency and he has a long history of association with the group. He even wanted it to help shape his agenda as president, and ACORN was rewarded for its efforts during the presidential campaign with $8 billion of appropriations in the $787 billion “stimulus” bill.
