In the clip wright says Jesus was a black man. I think that kind of thing will hurt Obama much worse than the fact that the pastor is saying that Hilary is not black and can’t understand blacks. Anyway any focus on Obamas blackness can hurt him so this is exactly what he doesn’t need.
Every time I see this stuff come up I just wonder to myself” why couldn’t Bush have been fried for his connection to religious charlatans ?” Instead, his appeal to evangelicals probably got him elected. Why are Americans less threatened by that movement and politicians that affiliate with it. Is it because the Evangelicals Jesus is white? I don’t think this Wright guy, who I really dislike, should reflect any worse on Obama than the Christian right should reflect on any candidate that cozies up too them.
Obama wuld be in big trouble int he general elections without this mess.He criticizes American agressiveness towards and explotation of other countries. He is against the war in Iraq and he criticizes American foreign policy in the Middle East as did Ron Paul. That alone will keep him out of the white house. Look where it got Paul who apparently doesn’t have any really goofy church affiliations.
