The time is up for going the extra mile to help black people advance. Nothing challenges them to improve. The black community only knows the words… take, take and take. I can’t believe what was preached in Obama’s church. Someone said…Oh! this is how we preach (Yelling). For me yelling and making a scene is a sign of ignorance. Obama your not fooling anyone…and OH! “You lost my vote”!

sh,what about all the white people who fought to end slavery?many died to end the injustice.I have 2 daughters and a bi-racial granddaughter and all our life we have taken a stand against predjudice,unfair treatment of blacks,whites,abused women it did not matter what color anyone was,if they were being mistreated. They experienced racism also if someone did not want their son dating a white person .It happens..You can spend all your life feeling mistreated or you can stand up against hatred,opression and abuse regardless of where it’s coming from and believe me there are good and very bad in all colors.Everything you mentioned would make me angry and me or my children would speak out against any of it regardless of the consequences to us,so please quit blaming the whole white race for what some ignorant racist do.We do not blame all the black race for what a black person may do.

Please everyone take note of who our elected officials are supporting so we know who not to re-elect.They are NOT backing the 1st African American they are backing the 1st Arab American don’t take my word for it though check out his family,his lies about his background its very conveinient that he claims to be African American to get the African American vote,he does not talk about his Arab roots unless its to lie about them hmmmm The trail is there follow it.Where is all his money coming from not all from Oprah surely..I mean she is rich but she can’t do it all alone of course he has Hollywood bamboozled into believing he wants world peace kind of like the spirit of anti-christ that will come in the last days.

I am so tired of hearing about Obama being a messiah. I think he is only where he is today because he is different, albeit inexperienced as a teenager for the job description. He is a racist and he can deny it all day, we all know the truth. I never thought about race on a day to day basis. I rarely think of it. To hear that some people harbor this kind of crap, and worse to hear they teach it and preach it at their church is disheartening. To hear a presidential hopeful is attending said church……is shocking. If this man had been white, he would of been run off long ago. We knew about this church a long time ago, nobody believed me. It was a non-issue until those tapes came out. Now it is all hush hush. Many black people seem to dare white people to criticize the situation. Personally I think this whole thing is a race riot waiting to happen. I am so damn tired of hearing about race…the main ones I hear it from are black people. Most black people I know are fine. But some are just as prejudiced as any white person. (the ones that they consider THE MAN and all that diatribe)I was in school and in the military with many colors. I don’t care if they are cool, I am cool. But to hear outright hatred about any color just ticks me off. I won’t stay around anyone doing that. It certainly should never be talked about in church like Wright did. But for a presidential candidate…it is unforgivable. Deep down I have problems with whether he is some sort of Manchurian Candidate anyway. To read about all the race crap just finishes it off for me. No way will I ever vote for him. Some vote for him just because of his color. Some to prove a point they aren’t prejudiced. Some are just fools thinking he is a messiah. He is another Jimmy Carter….but WORSE. His mid east religious upbringing I find disturbing. His book is unsettling. We would be in danger if we elect this man. We definitely need a good person to vote for this go round. Sadly Hillary Clinton, John McCain, and Obama are NOT the right ones. Obama is the worst of the three. Mark my words, and take that to the bank folks.

Obama can “Clintonize*” as well as any other politician (except possibly for Slick Willie himself).

*Clintonize – to lie without regard to any long term consequences or reputation damage in order to realize fleetingly short term political gain by fooling the gullible, the stupid, the intellectually lazy and the woefully under- and un-educated American public.

[...] out and says that she wouldn’t attend a church with these sorts of statements, he goes on The View and says this: “Had the reverend not retired, and had he not acknowledged that what he had said [...]

Obama’s lies – and Hillary’s – are piling up like neglected garbage. Disquieting in the average man; but in a presidential candidate? Disqualifying.

Once again, Obama shows what he is full of. He could have left the church at any time. . . and he has been listening to Rev Wright’s garbage for 20 years. . .and we are supposed to believe this line? Please.

i believe that a bean stalk will grow to the heavens i believe that theres a tooth fairy,i believe ant grow to five feet tall,i also believe that the cow jumped over the moon and the fork ran away with the spoon but guess what i don’t believe obama is the man that should be our president or that he sat in a chruch for twenty years and never heard what rev.wright was saying and i evn bet if you go deeper into this matter obama feels the same way.i do not belirvr that after all the years he was in that chruch this didn’t rub off on obama and or make him think or wonder about these teaching and if most think the way i do,i don’t want some man like this in our whitehouse running our country.
