  • Jeremiah Wright was supposed to be a man of GOD but from what I can see he was a man of vile and venom. Obama knew this was the mans sentiment how could he have not known after 20yr of association. Why did it take someone in the media draging this issue kicking and screaming into the light to make Obama do the right thing, to denounce and apologize for the racist remarks of Mr Wright. He knew but chose to ignore it --- how can Obama truly be trusted by anyone when he is so hollow and false.

  • He made this "Speech" to save his political career!! Wake up you morons. Just because he SAYS things doesn't mean he MEANS them. Remember, it took him 3 days to write this. Could have taken me 1 day.

    You want universal health care? Look at UK and Canada before you get what you want!!

  • race is not the issue. people hate him because hes a liar. obama=GWB term 3

  • fuck niggers

  • This Phony "snakeoil" saleman thinks he has a cure for this "Madcow Hussien" disease....And as your "Pied Piper"...Follow Dr.Hussien to the river Demo-Rats...this will be your cure.

    No such luck...but this would save America.

  • you can't excuse his serious lack in judgment in not addressing this issue honestly the first time he was asked about it. i also took offense to him comparing his relationship with Wright to that of his racist grandmother....umm, we don't choose our family obama, you chose to make this man your "personal friend", "mentor", and "spiritual advisor". He has unfortunately rendered himself unelectable in the fall.

  • He is a better candidate, that's why he should not be her VP, she doesn't deserve to be president. She's fake and she is claiming experience she doesn't have!

  • AMERICANS ARE YOU SMARTER THAN A SIXTH GRADER

    No matter how eloquent you speak you can't hide the truth forever

    Obama's Harvard Education has went towards bonding with these types of friends over the last 20 years For who's benefit and why

    Those beliefs values morals are filth that breeds racism terrorism and hate

    What a bunch of lame excuses I heard Obama say over all of this I must have missed the classes on ethics and sound judgement

  • In reply to Rahowanaw! I am more angry at you than Mr Wright! That is the same kind of language that angered me about Mr Wright but you anger me more because that is where it all begain.

  • Now is your golden opportunity Obama to

    show us what a leader you are when the stakes are high and to break the Racial Stalemate you refered to. Are you not a part of creating this racial stalemate and dividing the Democratic Party by refusing to be Hillary's VP?

  • You want more, His KIDS, other young kids heard the whole RANT,Have you heard the whole RANT, Everything those kids HEARD. WOW,

    THATS CHILD ABUSE. THEY sould be in JAIL.

    VOTE RON PAUL.

  • What people are saying here about him not knowing the black experience is ridiculous.He grew up BEING black. He was called the 'n' word.He had to work twice as hard as his white counter parts just to prove himself.He was told he wasn't white enough or that he wasn't black enough.Unless you've lived HIS life you can't judge him on that basis.

    All Obama/Clinton supporters please BOYCOTT FOX NEWS- the right wing biased network.

    Add this to ALL your posts anywhere PLEASE. They need to be stopped.
