He's just another in a long line of "anti-christs du jour".
I remember in the Early 80's the anti christ was supposed to be Ronald Reagan (for some of the same reasons the OP stated). Then for a while it was
Mikhail Gorbachev (he had the mark!). For a short time it was Muammar al-Gaddafi (...Quadaffi, ...Kadaffi, whatever). In the early 1990's George
Bush Senior was called the anti christ by some people, and so was Saddam Hussein during the first Gulf War. In the late 1990's there were some
people who were convinced that Bill Clinton was the anti christ because of his ability to sway people's opinions with his speeches.
It seems that this moment in time is Obama's turn. In 5-10 years we will have someone else who will be declared the anti christ.
