Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton argued Sunday that her campaign for the White House is "about solutions," not feelings, as she swept through Ohio on an intense push two days before the state's presidential primary.
She told more than 2,000 cheering backers that she wants to solve the economic troubles facing the industrial Midwest.
"For some people this election is about how you feel, it's about speeches," Clinton said. "Well, that's not what it's about for me. It's about solutions...."
Mrs. Clinton focused on her promise to provide health insurance for all, as well as her opposition to trade agreements that she said have drained thousands of jobs from the nation's industrial heartland, including Ohio.
"It's time we looked around and saw what's going on in the rest of Ohio," she said. "We cannot go on like this. It's morally wrong and economically stupid."
After stops in Youngstown, Akron and Cleveland on Sunday, and Toledo on Monday, Clinton was returning to Texas late Monday for rallies in Beaumont and Austin. She also planned a televised town hall to be broadcast statewide in Texas on Monday night. Aides said she would await Tuesday's election returns in Ohio. ...
Meanwhile, Mr. Obama told a town hall meeting Sunday in Nelsonvile, Ohio, that he's tired of questions about his religion.
He said he is a devout Christian who prays to Jesus every night. He told audience members they would feel right at home at his church in Chicago.
Mr. Obama said misinformation -- including long-standing suggestions that he is a Muslim -- is being spread by his opponents.

“He told audience members they would feel right at home at his church in Chicago.”
His church gave a huge award to Screwy Louie Farrakhan in late 2007. I’m sure I’d feel right at home there.
His church used to have a pretty blatantly black racist “about” page, which they seem to have removed.
Here is that page, from the Internet Archive:

Here is the cleaned up version they have now:

This page is pretty interesting, too. “Black theology” and “Black liberation theology” indeed:

Dang, you beat me to it.
I can’t believe this church and their screwy actions doesn’t get more scrutiny.
That has been cleaned up *considerably* from what used to be on that page in 2007. See my posts and bahblahbah’s post in this thread.
Because somebody had a hissy fit...here is a sermon from Obama’s pastor.

Thanks for tip. I did not know that. It’s bad enough as I posted it.
