"The coverage though has made him out to be some sort of scary demon black preacher- which he isn't."

How would you characterize him?

<<<The coverage though has made him out to be some sort of scary demon black preacher- which he isn't. So excuse me if I don't take the made up issue all that seriously personally. That's not to say the country can't unfairly tar Obama for this- they can. I just don't think it's very important, myself.>>>

I agree with you that Rev Wright has been unfairly treated, but I also understand why Obama has to get away from this guy. Obama today is not the same person he was two years ago. He is now a national figure, almost a world figure. He has to grow into that position and he has to leave some people behind that helped him to get to where he is. It is understandable. It is life.
