Questions for Obama

Submitted by Tex, Jan 12, 2008 00:15

Explain how TUCC - Chicago's Black Values System is not racist? Why not the emphasis on Jesus Christ if a Christian church? What is the difference in a predominantly white church employing a White Values System? Would you object? Explain your affiliation with a church with an agenda that has a non-negotiable committment to Africa? Why no mention of the United States? Isn't that contradictory for the leader of the free world to pledge allegiance to another continent? Explain your pastor's ties to Louis Farakhan? How is your church not a divisive issue? How will voters elect you against a Republican?
