Paul, I’ve said this to many people recently…it doesn’t make sense to judge Obama on the views of just one man. After all, it’s a well-known fact that black churches are quite different than other churches…something that most white people may not get due to the cultural differences. I’ve heard just about every black pastor make crazy comments about stuff. Doesn’t mean that every person who goes to that church believes in the same things. People who go to such churches are not obligated to believe every single word that a pastor says…even after going to the same church after 20 years. Sure, people get influenced. But I think Obama is much more educated and smart enough to not let the rants of an old pastor influence his own strong held beliefs. Obama believes whole heartedly in the teachings of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Those are teachings that greatly trump anything this pastor has had to say over the last 20 years. I seriously doubt this man could say anything that would greatly influence Obama to go against those beliefs.

We don’t know who the pastor really is, we don’t know this man, and we don’t know what he’s like. We’re basing our opinions entirely on the crap-fest that is being shown on the media. This to me is just the typical fear mongering and bullshit journalism that is the American political system. This isn’t a simplistic point of view…it’s just common sense. Obama has a very multi-cultural family. His father was a black man from Kenya and his mother is a white woman originally from Kansas. His immediate family stretches beyond the norms and is not your typical black family. To say he has a hidden agenda that favors the black community is ridiculous. That’s the sort of thing the Clinton campaign wants you to believe.

The difference between Geraldine Ferraro and Reverend Wright is that, unlike Ferraro, Reverend Wright doesn’t represent Obama’s campaign. What Ferraro did was a big no-no and Clinton didn’t say shit about it. On the other hand, Obama has outright denounced Reverend Wright which, for me, is good enough.

Also, what about what Jerry Faldwell and Pat Robertson have said in the past about 9/11? Do you think it’s seems somewhat hypocritical in that context?

If you really wanna know what Barack is about politically, go check out his Senate record at the Library of Congress website and view some of the bills he’s proposed to the Senate floor. Says a whole lot about what he believes in. You can call Obama a liar all you want but actions speak louder than words, Paul.
