Wow do you guys not read the bible? The antichrist must arise from the area today which is the former roman empire, which includes UK, Luxemborg, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Portugal area on over close to Romania. The Revived Roman empire is more than just "Rome" but this and many other things rule out Obama. However, his overnight rock star status prior to his election I believe may have been a foreshadowing sign from God about how the antichrist might rise up with such instant fame. Obama hasn't called fire down from heaven in the sight of men or performed any other miracles.....the bible says the antichrist will, so how many more will follow him vs. Obama?
