The book, published in 1973 by a French writer named Jean Raspail, is called The Camp of the Saints. The Southern Poverty Law Center has described it as "a racist fantasy about an invasion of France and the white Western world by a fleet of starving, dark-skinned refugees." (In the novel, the leader of the refugees is described as regularly eating human feces.) Raspail once said that "the proliferation of other races dooms our race, my race, to extinction." HuffPo lists a number of occasions on which Bannon has cited the book approvingly and said that its plot—in which, for instance, "the queen of England is forced to marry her son to a Pakistani woman" and the mayor of New York is forced to live with three black American families after a "black tide" overruns the Upper East Side—resembles actual world events:

“It’s been almost a Camp of the Saints-type invasion into Central and then Western and Northern Europe,” he said in October 2015. “The whole thing in Europe is all about immigration,” he said in January 2016. “It’s a global issue today—this kind of global Camp of the Saints.” “It’s not a migration,” he said later that January. “It’s really an invasion. I call it the Camp of the Saints.” “When we first started talking about this a year ago,” he said in April 2016, “we called it the Camp of the Saints. ... I mean, this is Camp of the Saints, isn’t it?”
It is no secret by now that president-elect Donald Trump has surrounded himself with a cast of reprehensible characters, and is still being supported by people who are demonstrably worse. One such person, William S. Lind, made few if any headlines when he met with Trump informally earlier this year and gifted him with a copy of his 2009 book The Next Conservatism. Co-written by religious right leader and Heritage Foundation co-founder Paul Weyrich (1942-2008), the book posits, among other things, that the “decay” of American culture didn’t “just happen,” but was “deliberate, the work of the poisonous ideology of cultural Marxism, AKA ‘Political Correctness.’”

But let me just putnit this way.
If Bannon is a racist for mentioning this book, then I assume that you also felt Obama believed all of the things reverend wright and bill ayers have said and believed.

But did he try to implement anything Bill Ayers or Rev Right said, or did publicly denounced Wright and distance himself from him, not sure what he did with Ayers.

Sure he did tons of things that ayers and wright approved of and suggested. Calling out police, immigration policies, government health care, not defending Israel at the UN as he went out of office, and many other things both of these would have supported and is some cases actually suggested.
So you concede then that Obama hated jews and the US.

Calling out police?? really ?? he compared a dead black kid with a son he never had killed by a failed cop wannabe, had a beer summit with a friend and a cop arresting him trying to get into his own home?? or was it when he called for cops to ratch down the killing of unarmed blacks..if Rev Wright or Bill Ayers said that , then kudos for him, about him not supporting Israel or a Jew hater come on man you reaching, are you saying that Israel overreaching on Palestinian land is a good thing..how so??
Having a Republican made health care system first came into to being by Mitt Romney ?? hey I would have gone single payer myself instead of the half measures middle of the road vanilla stuff he did for 8yrs.

Constantly, like a bible or book of instructions , you are trying to tie Obama to Ayers and Wright is still reaching , as he have more in common with Republicans of the Reagan era than he does with both these men.

When Bannon told that reporter who was an American citizen to "get out of my country" after he was thrown out from the presidential press pit,it shows his outlook
You can hear the contempt for the reporter he has in the tone of his voice as he says it
Bannon and President trump also share a history of domestic violence with their ex wife's
Yeah Bannon is a racist wife beater

He's also been involved in voter fraud.
But of course that kind of thing is okay when the "right kind" of folks do it.

Just because Bannon believes current times are similar to a book (which I agree with his quotes, at least in the OP), does not mean he will follow thru like the book, especially a book where we all know the ending. Just like we all talk about Orwell's 1984, times may be similar but that is all, for our rulers will take us down the unknown path, leaving tiny lil breadcrumbs here n there to falsely think we know our # n assumptions,
Heck, even if life winds up like the book, thousands dead in the end is tragic, but I more worry n fear how easily this all came to be in the first place - worldy manipulation of the highest order! Like losing the war before a battle is even fought.
