Stick a fork in him, he’s done.
His allegiance to his church, even if he really does disagree with the hate-mongering speeches of Reverend Wright, is going to bring him down.
Are the American people really expected to believe that he didn’t know his Reverend, who he calls his friend and spiritual mentor, who presided over his marriage, who baptized his children, didn’t have these racist beliefs. Give me a break. It’s very hard to believe.
But even giving him the benefit of the doubt on that point, why, if he really disagreed with these comments and beliefs, did he stay a member of this church for over 20 years?
At the very best, you could just call it bad judgment on his part. We’re electing a President here….I think we could do better. I never thought I’d say this, but I hope the Democrats nominate Hillary.

I was all for Barack if we had to have a democrat for a president. But after seeing that pastor, I really despise him. You’re right, there’s no way you could attend a church for that long and not know your pastor is a racist. Disgusting. And I’m so disgusted that we have people like his pastor living in our country.

Debbie: I agree with you. It’s too bad that there’s still stuff like this going on in the world.

Agree. He may win the primary. He will not win the general election. I wonder if he and the Wright family will be going out to dinner soon?
