And that is what really bothers me as well. I do have to admit after reading
Steele's book I have more sympathy for Obama, I can understand how
important belonging was to him. I can also understand how Wright became
the father figure so lacking in his life. And maybe because of that he was
able to overlook the older mans views and except him for his good points.

NEVER COMPLAIN AND NEVER EXPLAIN: MOVE IMMEDIATELY
TO ATTACK---------------from The Lion & The Unicorn
this will be a recurring issue re: his pastor. Obama may have disagreed with him but in my experience locally if people disagree strongly they talk to that pastor or rabbi or other person and if there is no resolution, depending on what issue it is they may quit the temple the church whatever. Thee are people that say he had 20 years to take a stand but friendship was an overriding figure. I also believe that it is hard to disagree with a rabbi; he is a figure that demands respect; who am I to criticize him ? I may disagree but his education and background may make it difficult for me to vocalize. I can understand Obama's delimna. but I wonder just how much of the Pastor's thinking rubbed off on him .
