Reverend Jeremiah A. Wright, the controversial pastor of Barack Obama, spoke in front of the NAACP and I watched as he mesmerized the audience with his cadence and inspired speech making me want to have him as my Reverend. He sang the blues, whistled a ditty and cracked a joke or two along the way. This was not a hostile, black revolutionary that wants to tear down America’s democratic system, (like George Bush has been doing for the last eight years) and how the media, the Clinton and McCain camps have portrayed Rev. Wright to undermine Barack Obama’s campaign. No, this was a highly educated, charismatic, inspiring speaker that enthralled the crowd and me. He is not the enemy, he is a person of insight that the likes of the media, Clinton and McCain’s campaigns need to listen to and maybe even get some insights from about how the real world really works. He has inspired many to reach for higher goals, feel better about themselves and lead them to greater heights (take Barack for example). As he said, he is not running for office, he is not a politician, he answers to a higher order and that is unlike the embarrassing talking heads that we are forced to watch every night that answer to ad revenue and ratings. I know we can turn it off or change the channel, which I do, but then on the next channel there’s always another clown expressing their own clownish opinion, no I watch because it is like watching a car wreck, you can’t help it, waiting for the next dumb thing they will lower themselves to. Nonetheless, Reverend Wright is being slashed in the media limelight and will continue to be throughout the election cycle if Barack remains in the race. McCain Republicans will flash scenes of him in fiery oratory but will neglect to mention he served in the military for six years. The Republican right must be worried about Barack Obama winning since the rightist of the right have decided to come out in favor of Hillary and Hillary seems to love their support. The likes of William Kristol, columnist of the right for the New York Times; Karl Rove, architect and arch enemy of the Democratic party; Pat Buchanan, never-wrong right-nick; William Bennett, conservative moralist and gambling addict; Rush oxy-contin addicted Limbaugh, conservative radio pariah; Richard Scaife, chief financier of the dirtiest tricks that ever could be imagined leading to the circus that embarrassed Hillary’s husband while he was president. If you ask me, having Reverend Wright as my Reverend as a young man is more compelling and interesting when compared to having this line-up of righteous tainted conservatives, who now support the candidacy of Hillary Clinton...
