On this whole barrock obama business i dont think that it really is that big of deal. Just because someone attends a church and hears some junk doesnt mean that they agree with every little word said. Vote for obama

The problems of race and gender are over-obsessed, and are both a card played far too much. People shouldn't give a rat's if the candidate is a white, black or any chade in between. They should spend far more time examining the politics of a person and deciding if the person in question would be a good president.

I think that he's made the right decision to distance himself from his pastor(who's made some pretty radical statments not mentioned in the article). However I don't think his speach actually matters to America; just his Campaign.

I knew this dispute would happen from the beginning. Obamah is going to do anything he needs to do to become president even if it means playing the race card, and it's not just Obamah, Hillary has done it to just with the gender card. The fact is I don't care if the next president is black, white, hispanic, or asian. It doesn't even matter if it's a male or female! What matters is the this person is both competent and able to handle the problems at hand, and I don't think Obahma fits that last discription.
