For 20+ years, this man (Wright) has also been highly respected among most clergyman in Chicago and within the predominantly white United Church of Christ....and recognized for the vast amount of work and commitment his church has given to the community.
You want to condemn Obama for Wright's comments and ignore the broader words and actions of the pastor..thats fine.
I look at the whole person before making judgement.
