Editorial: My Fellow Clintonites, It's Time For Obama

You Gotta Be Kidding Me Right , I Am An Obama Supporter & I Am Amazed At This!

You are nuts! You're asking us to support Obama because of the Wright scandal? You blatantly come out and say support Obama because he's black! That, Boston Globe, is racism. I say it again, you are nuts!

Just out of curiosity, with such a tight race--why is no saying Obama must drop out? Why must it be Hillary? One is just as unelectable and destined to lose to McCain as the other. Is it that much more important for it be a black man who gets his ass handed to him in November rather than a woman?

Two choices:
Senator Obama--- change from the same old tricks in Washington. An opportunity to unite all Americans and improve our reputation in the world. Concerning Rev. Wright, most Americans believe in fair treatment for all people at all times. They were willing to search out full sermons. The media could not figure out why the pols did not drop significantly after airing those sound bites for 2 weeks. Easy answer: Most Americans are decent, and are not willing to participate in such tactics. One other reason, most Americans learned 40 years ago of the value of having friends, neighbors and family members of different ethnic backgrounds, and are comfortable with those differences. Thank you Dr. King.
Senator Clinton- She should remain in the race. Recent airing of the Andrea Mitchell program and Brian Williams program along with several post on this site and other sites are talking about her involvement with the Fellowship or "Family" since 1992. The Fellowship, with its leader, Douglas E. Coe were aired on the MSNBC site this week, and the contents of the statements made by Coe were alarming. The Fellowship, talk about the their admiration of the skills of Hitler, Lenin and others. See Steven G. Brants article on this site titled, "Hey Hillary, what about the Religious Family you have chosen to be a part of"? Brant talks about Senator Clintons involvement with the Fellowship. I wonder if America is okay with this religious participation. The answer scares me.

Exactly she can run next time after she cleans up her image.
I could have told you that she stood no chance at beating a black man who people still thinks is muslim.

I hope I am reading this editorial wrong. It sounds like Mr Jones is asking Hillary supporters to abandon her and rally behind Obama because he chose Rev Wright as his spiritual mentor and advisor twenty years ago. Because he sat in that church with his wife Michelle and their children and listened to that hate-filled, racist and anti-American speech; we are now being asked to drop our candidate and vote for him? What you are basically saying is that the best reason to support Obama is "white quilt". Sorry, but I was under the impression that neither race nor gender should play any role in my choice of a Democratic nominee and I still believe that. Too bad some of Obama's supporters like you can't get past the race issue Mr. Jones.

Please ignore the "kennedy" troll posts. They're beyond inane and juvenile and to reply to them would be an utter waste of intellect. It's a shame that she (he?) sullies such a respectable name.

I don't understand why anyone would want the Clintons back in the White House...it's beyond my comprehension. They are LIARS, opprtunists and they have embarrassed us. Between the sex scandals and the impeachemnt and GWB making us look like crap in the eyes of the rest of the world..why would we think that the Clintons can restore our credibility...
Are you peolple nuts????

To have not anticipated the problems that the Wright has brought shows a lack of experience, a lack of experience in recognizing a situation in advance - a situation in the making.
To not have tried to change his church shows a character flaw and complacency at worst and a lack of leadership at best.
But most of all I encourage you to start thinking for yourself. The information doesn't need any spin. It doesn't need context. It doesn't need any speech. I am a life-long Democrat at this stuff scares me. Invest a few hours in your family's future and Google Black Liberation Theology & Marxism.

We need to GET REAL PEOPLE!
In case anyone actually wants to do some research on their own instead of reading the biased stuff main stream media is handing you:
Again, from the TUCC web-site: The vision statement of Trinity United Church of Christ (TUCC.org) is based upon the systematized liberation theology that started in 1969 with the publication of Dr. James Cone"s book, Black Power and Black Theology. Here is a quote from that book "What we need is the divine love as expressed in Black Power, which is the power of black people to destroy their oppressors here and now by any means at their disposal. Unless God is participating in this holy activity, we must reject his love,"
A few other comments from James Cone, a professor at the Union Theological Seminary in New York:
"What we need is the divine love as expressed in Black Power, which is the power of black people to destroy their oppressors here and now by any means at their disposal. Unless God is participating in this holy activity, we must reject his love," Mr. Cone added "Black theology will accept only the love of God which participates in the destruction of the white enemy."
Are you telling me that Obama didn't know about all this background on his church? You want me to believe that a curious, intelligent man would not have read the books that his mentor, Rev. Wright, had built a church on?

These are the Black Value System precepts that this church had on the front page of their web-site until 2 weeks ago. They're still there now but you have to click on a link at the bottom of the "About Us".
If Obama is a fraction of the leader you make him out to be how do you justify that he didn't try to change the church or Rev. Wright? How do you put this divisive, separatist, hateful theology into context? This church is about reaching out to each other - if you are black, it's about taking care of our own. Why didn't he stand before TUCC and say, "folks - We have an imperfect motto at our church" That the motto and the Black Vaue System reflect a time gone by. That the words of the church and it's leaders are "not only wrong but divisive, divisive at a time when we need unity; racially charged at a time when we need to come together to solve a set of monumental problems - two wars, a terrorist threat, a falling economy, a chronic health care crisis and potentially devastating climate change; problems that are neither black or white or Latino or Asian, but rather problems that confront us all." "This belief comes from my unyielding faith in the decency and generosity of the American people. But it also comes from my own American story." Where is that speech????? This man never even tried to affect his own church.
