| Well then and based on what posters here have said so far he could start to loose the black voter block vote, as well as young people who are into rap music. Indiana is influenced by radio form up north (out of Chicago - truff of Rev Wright).
Is Obama under-estimating the influence of Rev Wright on the African American community, I mean the man is not really telling big lies and everyone gripes about our government here in Amreica, it is our number one passtime. The Rev is like the "unseen super deligate".
Meaning not a deligate but someone who people listen too. Obama put Wright down for mentioning the AIDS conspiracy and yet Bill Crosby who is dearly loved also said the same thing as Rev Wright.
Is Obama really in touch with the thinking of the mainstream community of Black America? Do the average black person agree that discrimination is something "historical" as Obama discribed it?
The Rev Wright said that people who are different are not less or lower, just different. How can the bottom line be called "hate speech"?
And how come Hillary Clinton and McCain are not aware of the reasons why the Rev Wright is speaking out? Since when is "telling it like it is" so anti-American in nature?
What's more, if Obama gets on the bad side of Wright then the Rev will just keep on talking, so I hople Obama did not confess any sins to his preacher because the cat could get out of the bag.
But all and all, I cannot blame Obama for being upset about all this, as he was doing just fine until that unexpected moment popped up to mess up his ball game. Something he totally did not expect to happen and was unprepared for.
I fear the message that he will unite everyone is starting to fall apart early on, even before the normal honeymoon that politics so allows for. The unity of Democratic Party is split 50-50 (nearly) and now he must seperate his self from unity with his fomer church, and he still has not gotten even close to dealing with the Republicans.
In a way it is sad, and we can even feel sorry for the fellow, because he does have some pie in the sky dreams and he is a great speaker of promises. And can lay out some practical detail about his programs and can speak with intelligence on a number of things that matter to voters.
But he has a torn in his side called Rev Wright. the Rev has two master degrees, spent six years like McCain in the military fighting for America. The Rev has been involved in a lot more social programs to help people then has Obama, as well as international peace keeping missions. |
