Will Rev Wright Hurt Obama's Chances
The good Reverand does carry some baggage, but Sen Obama does not necessarity swallow everything that he says, hook, line and sinker. And there are white preachers who blame us for floods, tornadoes and other disasters; we're just not following them right now.
Sen Obama's belief that we can reason our way out of this tangle of resentments and false beliefs toward a more cooperative way to live is inspiring.
When he spoke to a crowd today in Charlston, his audience included people of many colors & nationalities, of every apparent legal voting age, and of differing economic status. In other words, a little bit of all of us. I do not believe that his campaign will be hurt in the long run. It will take a while for everyone to think about what he's said, then we'll join him for the journey ahead.
