I find the above quote of what you are projecting on anyone who disagrees with your views as utterly disgusting. You should be ashamed of what you wrote above, it is only you who is injecting race unfairly.

I'm not ashamed in the least for pointing at racism and calling it by it's name. Yes, that's why I think Rev. Wright is still being brought up by many- because the only other reason for bringing up Rev. Wright years later is the reason you ignored and didn't answer: where is the demonstrated "result" and "influence" of Obama's association with this terrible hate-monger?

So, we have two reasons for people bringing up Rev.Wright today: I say the first one is the well-known Republican Southern Strategy, the reason Clinton first brought up Wright in the 2008 primary (before she abandoned it as useless due to lack of Obama contact w/Wright) - appealing to racists and driving "fear of the angry vengeful black man".

You can pretend that doesn't even exist, but I don't see how one can justify such a view.

Secondly, the negative influence such a man would have. So tell me, as you've ignored it completely in your answer -where is the negative influence of this man Wright on our President, that makes it an ongoing concern to you years later? Doesn't the past 4 years - let alone all the years under the public microscope - prove Wright had no apparent negative influence upon Obama, judging Obama by his actions and words?

I acknoweged in my previous post, agreeing with you, that yes, Wright could be a negative influence. I asked you if that's been demonstrated, because I've seen the opposite. You wanna answer that? You say that is the reason Wright is still being brought up. Okay. So, let's examine that concern. I went first and said I hadn't seen cause for such concern. Have you? Where? How?
