  10. During the time of the 2008 presidential debates, Sarah Palin, Republican candidate for vice president, claimed that her Democratic opponent, then-presidential candidate Barack Obama, perceived the U.S. "as being so imperfect... he is palling around with terrorists who would target their own country." Palin's claim aimed to link Obama with a man who is the co-founder of the Weather Underground, a 1960's-era anti-war organization that is considered a domestic terrorist group. Bill Ayers, the man who co-founded the now defunct organization, is currently a professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago. Ayers served on a board with Obama and held a fundraiser for him in 1995. Most sources deny that the Obama and Ayers are presently in contact.
