This is a non-issue. I understand the mental midget, Sean Hannity from Fox making an issue of this, but I am surprised by others who are.

I agree. There are many things about Obama's policy positions that I disagree with but I don't think we should judge him by his old reverend's remarks. This whole racism/sexism rift in the Democratic party is getting ridiculous.
The candidates over zealous supporters are looking for anything to denigrate the other side and the news outlets looking for ratings on slow news days are fueling the fire. I find it amazing that a black man has lasted this long especially one named Barack Hussein Obama. It would be a shame if he was brought down by his old reverand's remarks instead of his personal beliefs and policy positions.
This man has an extreme uphill climb getting past those who are inclined to not vote for a black man and/or those who associate his middle name with some sort of connection to terrorism.
