There is nothing whatsoever in Obama's rhetoric -- whenever he gets
more specific about what kind of America he sees and would like to see
-- that contradicts the message of his pastor: America is the bad guy
in the War on Terrorists and most particularly in Iraq, and there can
be no "more just" or "more equal" America until such time, and by
whatever means, all blacks have economic parity with all whites.
