Google the phrase "Obama Socialism". What do you get? Try google news... what did you find?

I found many articles and blogs that talked about Obama being a socialist. Many of them gave examples in which he acts like a socialist and many others you can tell were opinionated. Also many headlines were similar like, "Is Obama really a Socialist"

Do you feel that the label "socialism" is applied appropriately or correctly to Obama, his proposals or his policies?

Do Obama's proposals or policies have historic precedents in America? If so, what happened in the past?
