Race Matters: Indiana Shopping Center Posts Sign Outside Depicting President Obama With Hitler Mustache

Racism is alive and well. Sign Outside Indiana Shop Shows Obama With Hitler Mustache Obama is the president and even though some people didn’t want a black man in office, they need to respect it. According to Raw Story A video billboard outside a northeast Indiana shopping center shows a picture of President Barack Obama wearing an Adolf Hitler mustache. The billboard flashes the image at the start of a display that next flashes the words “Impeach” and “Obama.” The sign’s owner said the images were a paid advertisement that wasn’t associated with any of the businesses at Cornerstone Plaza on U.S. 6 in Kendallville, about 20 miles north of Fort Wayne. The sign also included another message linked to LaRouchePac, a political action committee formed by former presidential candidate Lyndon LaRouche, and third that seeks to restore the Glass-Steagall Act, a Depression-era law that limited activities between commercial banks and securities firms. Supporters of LaRouche, who has promoted a number of conspiracy theories and was convicted in 1988 of mail fraud and tax code violations, have in the past circulated posters and flyers showing Obama with a mustache like Hitler’s, and his PAC has called restoration of the Glass-Stegall legislation as “the indisputable first step to global economic recovery.” Mayor Suzanne Handshoe said the message was inappropriate, regardless of a person’s views of the president, and didn’t reflect a message the city would want to send.
