As for the rest of your post. It too is inflammatory and helpful. I am sorry you feel that this is the way to convince people of your point of view.

I was only asking if I understand everything correctly that has transpired or been written over the previous 6 pages.
And to say his pastor of 20 years isn't or doesn't espouse a racist point of view is rather disingenuous wouldn't you agree?
Supposing David Duke was a minister and McCain happened to sit under his tutelage and spiritual guidance for 20 years or so years then decided to run for president. Would we even be having this conversation? I think we both know the answer to that don't we?
On another note .... Comparing someone's pastor views to a family members view is a stretch at best. We can and do choose our spiritual or celestial guide but we can't choose our family members.
