I don't think its as much a matter of being threatened by an Obama presidency as being curious about who this guy is and what makes him tick.
I wonder how many people here have read Obama's book, "The Audacity of Hope"?

I see no issue. Right. Guess what. I'm an old-fashioned liberal with a lot of sympathy for angry black people. Boo!
It doesn't scare me. I don't feel threatened by it. I feel that it's normal and acceptable considering our past and its lingering effects on our present day reality.
And there is no evidence that Obama had any significant relationship with Louis Farrakhan and certainly no evidence that he subscribed to his beliefs. This is really getting ridiculous now. All of a sudden Rev. Wright by himself's not menacing enough, I guess.

Since neither "fact" is correct, this is approaching Obama being guilty by second degree of association.

Doh! That's right.
Is there any evidence that the Muslim leader of the Nation of Islam is a practicing Christian in Rev. Wright's church?
