31-year-old Omhari Sengstacke, a member of a prominent Chicago family, was arrested outside Senator Barack Obama's Chicago home after he went up to security and asked to speak to Obama regarding a job.

In his car, police found a .40 caliber pistol, ammunition and a bulletproof vest.

I wonder, if Barack had met him and had said no, what he would have done? Most people don't go job-hunting with a pistol and bulletproof vest.

Authorities say a man arrested near Barack Obama's Chicago home told police officers he wanted to speak with the presidential hopeful about getting a job.

Thirty-one-year-old Omhari Sengstacke was ordered held in lieu of $250,000 bail during Wednesday's hearing.
