Think it’ll have anything to do with the forces of division starting to raise their ugly heads?
Barack Obama will give a major speech on “the larger issue of race in this campaign,” he told reporters in Monaca, PA just now.
He was pressed there, as he has been at recent appearances, on statements by his former pastor, Jeremiah Wright.
“I am going to be talking about not just Reverend Wright, but the larger issue of race in this campaign,” he said.
He added that he would “talk about how some of these issues are perceived from within the black church issue for example,” he said.
Maybe “the government lied about Pearl Harbor” is all a big cultural misunderstanding? Expect lots of redemption rhetoric about the Messiah rising like a phoenix from the ashes of the black nationalist movement he patronized for 20 years and how it’s objectively anti-progress to hold that inconvenient fact against him. Exit question: It’s good news, at least, that the congregation apparently no longer regards “Middleclassness” as some sort of vestige of slavery, isn’t it?
And maybe as an extra special bonus, he will free his white grandmother.
You know a quick FOIA check will determine if the SS was with him at one of those hate America rants by his pastor... figures a good Media outlet would have already investigated his claim to not be present at those events... Maybe he got caught in his own lies and will now try this effort to weasle out.
I guess that makes you a "contestist".
Everything is ALWAYS about the contest.
Can't you just once look past the contest, and judge a man by his race?
;->
He’s a black separatist that’s been outed and nothing he says or does will change that.
Depends what he says. Could be great, could be disastrous. Wait.
What with the ethanol boondoggle, it’s getting hard to find popcorn and the demand is great!!
I would like to know who Barack likes in the Derby. I’d like to ask him about eight or more questions about it. Cool Coal Man sounds like a pick or maybe Pyro.
This is major damage control, polls must look pretty bad.
Is Tom Sawyer coming out to play?
Ya gotta love this guy... ha ha ha
The last thing HilLIARy wanted was more media focus and attention on him, and he will have total spotlight for this. I bet even SHE watches it.
I would love to see the reaction if he pulls it off...
I hope Obama, the uniter, explains why his wife is a very angry woman, and his spiritual leader is an angry raving madman.
One would think that those folks, being so close the the great uniter would be blissful not so full of anger.
King was a Republican?
Not according to the Washington Post.
“
In 1960, King was arrested for trespassing during a sit-in and held in Georgia’s Reidsville prison. Fearing for his son’s life, Martin Luther King Sr. appealed to presidential candidate John F. Kennedy to secure his release.
When King was freed, his father vowed to deliver 10 million votes to the Democrat, even though Kennedy was only a reluctant supporter of civil rights. That began four decades of black people voting for liberals.
The younger King voted for Kennedy, and for Democrat Lyndon B. Johnson four years later. In that election, King publicly denounced the Republican candidate, Barry Goldwater.”
Y'er not from 'round here, are ya?
ya'll look right over here!
Maybe we couold submitt a bill to congress offering free passage for separatists back to their continents of 'racial' origin.
This is just getting beyond disgusting. The good news is that reparations is DEAD after this.
Does anybody know who will give the post speech response????
I’m hoping this shores up enough of the lefty base to get him over the dem nomination finish line.
Big mistake. The more this is about race, the more he loses.
Do you support Rev. Wright's claim that FDR "set up" Pearl Harbor?
Do you agree with his characterization of the United States as the "USofKKKA?" If not, why not? Can you explain how YOU see the USA?
Was 9/11 an "inside job" by the Bush administration?
Is the US an oppressive nation and/or society?
Was Jesus African?
You are misinformed; more people watch NASCAR in the United States than all other sports combined, or something like that.
And country music is the top-selling type of music.
Those of us not in “flyover country” (and I am not) ignore flyover country and their interests at their own peril!
