Obama; a racist?

As you probably have heard Barrack Obama a candidate for President in 2008 has been placed in hot water recently for his affiliation with Trinity Church of Christ in Chicago. Why does anyone care if he went to church? Well this isn’t any typical church. This church is stuck in the 60’s, literally! It is founded on James Cone’s Liberation Theology which he expressed in his 1969 book “Black Theology and Black Power”. Well what so wrong with this theology? This view is just an excuse for racism. In Cones book he tells blacks that they must “destroy the white enemy” and preaches that God and Jesus are solely black Gods and everyone who is bad to blacks are the devil’s. Hmmm, interesting view for a presidential candidate. But It gets worse, his church published the Hamas (A terrorist cell in Israel and Palestine) Manifesto in their weekly church bulletin! They also gave a life time achievement award to Louis Farrakhan; one of America’s most racist anti-Semitics. Not to mention the church wants God to damn America, thinks the government invented AIDS to harm blacks, calls the good ol’ US of A the KKKA, accuses the government of giving black children drugs, and stresses “black family-community- culture” over all else. Replace black with white and you have the KKK creed practically. The fact of the matter is this preacher, who has since retired, has been the mentor of Obama for over 20 years (Obama admitted this) and Obama even dedicated his book to the pastor. In 20 years with a man who is so loud about his racism there is no way Obama couldn’t have known about it. So now the question is Obama a racist or just complacent with black racism? Either way I don’t care! This is unacceptable, disgusting and the fact the Americans seem to be ok with this!?!?!? After Huckabee was eliminate Obama was someone I was considering, but I dont care if your white, black, orange or purple racism is racism and Im not voting for someone who stands idly by for 20 years and yet talks about change. - Birds of a feather...

wow!!!!!.......It quite known that religion most times influence an individual so i wouldn't say Obama is an exception. I think Obama shouldn't be judged because he attends a church that preaches anti-america. I think as a voter you should look at what he has to offer if he becomes president. If you don't find any practical and feasible then you shouldn't consider him. My point is, don't judge obama because his church pastor preaches anti-white or anti-america.Besides, why wasn't this issue considered when he ran for senate??????

I really dont keep track of elections too much. But i do agree with you on the point of racism. It dont matter what the situation, racism is stupid and already causes enough problems in this country as it is. If you elect someone who is racist as the President of the United States, then you are doing nothing but escalating the situation and asking for more problems. There's no point in that. -Nate A.
