Characterization of Barack Obama
For the past several months, we have heard the presidential candidates spewing venom and declaring how incompetent their opponents are. It has been shown during past elections, voters have voted against and not for a candidate. This policy has made this campaign very difficult to make a choice.
That is, until I turned on my TV one day and it was showing Barack Obama’s spiritual guide, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, standing in the pulpit cursing America and telling his congregation that the whites had manufactured a deadly disease to pass on to the blacks.
This sermon sounded as though bin Laden had wrote it.
Later, on another station, Obama was trying to uphold the Rev. Wright and he mentioned his white grandmother, whom he admired because of the sacrifices she made for him. He also said he cringed when she would utter racial remarks.
This provided me with the serious characterization of Obama and made my choice for candidate crystal clear.
