I mean really, outside of the right winger black pastor on Cable News. Could Obama have found any pastor that Sean Hannity and the others wouldn't have beat the hell out of?

4. It could very possibly be the connection of black pastors to Reverend Moon

5. Don't take the Hillary stooges at their word ... they are slime. Good point. The problem is with
"black preacher". This is a race card, veiled behind a Mccarthy value, patriotism.

7. There might not be one in the country.
Hell, they'd attack nearly any preacher he had regardless of color.

8. They'd have concocted some other scary black dude
I am just fed up with the haters in this country, and the ones on this board can just bite my ass. Especially the ones who dared to call me names the last time they were on an Obama encited witch hunt. We see who are the real bigots now.

10. The key word is not "black".
The key word is "change".

I'm sure you could find a catholic minister in the area, who expressed desires to suffer, and live in bondage, to show their faith.

Funny thing, though, is that black theology is not about suffering without change.

Hillary, Hannity, whoever, would be happy to run against a black man who had a minister who wasn't about change.

11. I don't know about Chicago, but in Newark he could find plenty..

For Reverend Wright to say and attack on him is attack on all black churches is pure nonsense. Churches are for worshiping God not man.

13. Does your first sentence make no sense or
am I crazy? I think you meant to say that for Rev Wright to say an attack on Rev Wright is an attack on all black churches. I think he is totally correct. If he had been white they'd have never given him a second look. Had Obama went to a very meek church maybe they'd have left him alone, but I think there's very few black churches like that.
