Obama And His Now Famous Pastor

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
KC Whats your thought about Obama's pastor and the medias fascination with their relationship

C'mon now Beau, let's be fair & balance here...

Give us your thought as well, I'm sure you got some. Don't be shy...

Your wish is my comand, lol

Ok, here is my thought on the whole thing.
I think that the media is enjoying this too much.
I do think his pastors word were a bit harsh, but in context they are words of a frustrated man, that knows how the system can be.
Infact I think most black people feel this way, some of us do not
actually say those exact words but our frustration is nontheless the same.

besides the world feel like his pastor, its not simply us blacks.

Also at think its clear that Obama is a different man, everthing about the man says intergration. I do believe he will stand for that, but not at the cost of rejecting his blackness, which is what I admire about him the most.

lets wait for his speech on the subject tommorow I believe.

Beau, remember I wrote this paragraph in the "New Hampshire Primaries" thread and I quote "he’s a black man running for president and whether America are still of bunch of bigots who will not elect a black man." Well he can make this divisive force that have shown it ugly head into his advantage. This is a thin line and he can gain so much from it or lose it all... I believe this is an opportunity for America to listen and try not to ignore this important issue. The country is still divided and America needs to acknowledge her bloody hands in history and that's what I think Jeremiah has tried to convey.

Anyway, I will write some more after his speech. I think the man is being tested and this an opportunity for him to show his leadership and be able to claim after the dust has settled, that he is somewhat vetted...
