By avoiding the hard decision to fully reject and deny Wright ligitimacy he has only confounded his position and lent additional fodder to his distractors. Not only has he hurt his own campaign but contrary to what Wright might think it has polarized people once again to ones race and created exactly the opposite effect Obama has been campaigning for, change. In my mind, Obama and or his "people" should have seen this coming. Instead, he has shown himself to be naive and less than capable when dealing with those that would use him to further their own agenda.

Wright said so himself. But why is is it ok for the Catholic Priest to molest those boys and the congregation sat there for decades and did nothing to stop it. Talk about double standard Marie1, Your ignorance floors me. At no time has the Catholic church EVER preached molestation. The facts are that molestation did occur. However, the people sitting in the pews were not being preached to regarding the justification of molestation. It's the difference between knowingly accepting actions and learning about actions after the fact. Jas Comment by marie1

Marie1,

Your ignorance floors me. At no time has the Catholic church EVER preached molestation. The facts are that molestation did occur. However, the people sitting in the pews were not being preached to regarding the justification of molestation. It’s the difference between knowingly accepting actions and learning about actions after the fact.

We often see protests and hear discussion about the separation of church and state as expressed in the Constitution. The same rules should apply to our elective process. Whatever people's religious views are, they should not be used as a weapon in either direction for political purposes. The framers of the Constitution intended that the state not inhibit citizens in their practice of a chosen religion. I think they would also condemn a religious leader who tried to use the political process to further their religious agenda.

He is so confused on what God is all about. Its not about color. Its not about your church. Is is about the condition of your soul. The whole Word of God talks about our spiritual condition. God knows in our flesh we are a mess. Our only hope is Christ. When our Lord talks of the oppressed, he is speaking to all of us. Without a personal encounter with Christ we will stay oppressed, with Christ we have liberation. The Bible calls it being saved. Eternal life with Christ. It does not make our flesh perfect, but it does our souls. Rev Wright, preach the Word! Not as you want to see it, but as God Amighty wants you to preach it. Anything else are just words, hateful words, words of the flesh, man's words. I am praying for you, that you will have your personal encounter with Christ. Then you will have a message to preach on Sunday morning. One that is for all, not just a few!!! I am so sorry for Rev Wright. He is so confused on what God is all about. Its not about color.

If you believe black kids need to listen to and absorb conspiracy theories about the government deliberately infecting blacks with AIDs, how we are responsible for 9/11, that military service gives one carte blanche patriotism for the rest of one's life regardless of what they may say, that whites deliberately keep blacks down, you need to seriously rethink your position. While I would have agreed with you 50 years ago that no black could rise to the highest office in the land, times have changed. This isn't the 1950s. Racism is no longer a major problem in contemporary American society, for most of it has been removed from the mainstream years ago. Anybody can do whatever they want if they persevered long enough. It is time to stop blaming others for your personal problems and be personally accountable for your own plight. Truly, the black community needs to have some serious introspection and rethink the widely held mindset of the white man being at fault for absolutely every ill in the black community. You and many others would be wise to stop listening to race baiters such as Wright, Sharpton, Jackson, etc, and start listening to people who preach personal responsibility and getting out of the blinding veil of false victimhood, such as Bill Cosby.

How we were prepared to use thousands barrels of nerve gas on Japan before the BOMB, I do think we are capable of many questionable and evil things to better ourselves.
