Yes I can. I've lived it. So, spare me the soapbox attitude. You don't know me and don't know my background.

This isn't an issue about "understanding the Brady Bunch". It's about understanding the character of a candidate running for President. A character who was educated at Harvard University, who is a very wealthy man in comparison to your average American. It's about understanding the friends and family members who may influence this person who may become President of the United States.

Please try and think for a minute about why a person given the privilege of being educated at Harvard would willingly support a church who's sermons screed anti-American hatred?

It's not about race as many in the MSM would like to frame the issue. It's about rabid far left wing hatred for America. This small segment of the population believes America is an evil plague upon the planet, and to be blamed for all the wrongs in the world. A person who believes these things shouldn't be considered for President of the United States.

Now, we have a choice. We can believe what Obama says today. Or, we can believe what he's chosen to support financially for over 20 years and the message they've been proudly preaching.

It just doesn't pass the common sense test of logic Obama did not know these kinds of attitudes and statements about the country were being made in his family church. A church he gave thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands of dollars to support.

It's also about his "judgement". As shown in this clip.
