I don't know, I thought he fell a little flat. Even the end, where he
seemed to be hoping for a better response from his audience. It was
kind of muffled not unlike his speech. I don't think he pleased either
side of the issue, supporters or detractors. I expected a lot more
substance, I think, and I know I am simple, but I think he is one of
the most intellectual candidates we have seen in a long time, even if
I think he is too liberal for me.

----------------------------------------------

I had a totally different impression. I didn't see it as a "political"
speech at all. It was more a "time out" from politics speech to expose
more of what he is, how he thinks and what he believes in.

I thought he very effectively got across the feel and image of being black
in America and of the remaining distrust that exists among groups with
different ethnic backgrounds. I thought he dealt with his nut case pastor's
comments with class and dignity.
I admire people who are loyal, even when that loyalty may hurt you
personally. He didn't give the pastor a free pass ... he condemned his
statements ..... but he also pointed out the good the pastor has to offer.

I thought it was very well written, delivered and had a strong message.

His statement that rejecting his pastor is a rejection of the black
community implies that the black community feels the same way as his
pastor. I don't think that's true, although there are *some* in the black
community who use the same language.

If I were a black who didn't believe that the USA developed AIDS for black
genocide, that we should be saying "God damn America", that we caused 9/11,
and the other comments from the pastor, I'd be ****ed at Obama's
implication.
