Great news for Obama. The soul food vote holding firm!
George Brooks, a cook in the A1 Soul Food truck, parked on the street in front of the Temple University campus in north Philadelphia, said Wright's comments reflected the thinking of many African-Americans. "That's the way we think, as a people," said Brooks. "It may be a big thing to the white race, but you know, these things happened to us. All these things that he's talking about happened to us."

(If whites spew hate, Obama calls it hate speech, when his pastor says it, he calls it anger speech.)

All these things that he's talking about happened to us."Only if you were born before 1865. If that's really the way they think "as a people," they'll always be unhappy and bitter and feel like they can't accomplish anything. What a miserable way to choose to live.

A "people" don't think...a "people" is the definition of an unthinking mob.
Tell us that YOU think, Mr. Brooks...if you can.

Obama related in his first book that Wright used the politics to unite the disparate groups of Blacks into one community, and to stir them to activism, rather than prayerful passivism.
They advocate passivism as a US foreign policy, but not as a Black domestic policy.
That’s why some have questioned Obama’s fitness to be the Commander in Chief. Is Obama a Black Liberationist, or not?
