Obama Speech Seeks To Quell Issue of Race
in response to reader comment: Obama's affiliation to Wright makes him the wrong man at the wrong time for healing race issues

Submitted by W.Roland, Mar 21, 2008 09:28

Watching a 5 minute video on u-tube does not give you the real truth to Rev. Wright's character or for that matter the meaning of the message. Rev. Wright is about justice, equality and truth. Let's face it America has disappointed many people not only blacks but the poor and in these last 8 years middle class white, asian, and hispanics. If you did not own oil or was some rich corporate exec. you basically got SCREWED. No, I didn't agree with everything Rev. Wright said during every service. My GOD he preached nearly 3 services every Sunday for 30 years. Who can or who does agree with everything someone says? The answer is NO ONE! That's why GOD gave us a brain. OBAMA's affiliation to Wright makes him the RIGHT man at the Right time for healing not only race issues but healing the WORLD. It is not just about us and our American children it's about the World's Children and their future. And if a man, Yes if Obama can stand in and represent America like no one else can, I say Let the healing begin. I may not have agreed with every word Rev. Wright said but every service I left I felt rejuvenated and ready to help change every community (not just the black) because everyone was suffering.
