America's obsession with race is shameful. If Obama was not a Black man would all this hoolabaloo about what his pastor preaches be that important to the belief's of the man. All those Catholics out there whose religion says non to contraceptives, and homsexuality, does this come back to haunt any white guy running for office, all those who may be listening to Billy Graham and those other Evangelicals does it hurt them. To pin what the preacher preaches on Obama tells me that America just does not understand Black people. They have lived alongside them for so long but they never paid attention to them. It is a shame. Here is a chance for change and America may opt to continue living in the dark ages.
