How was Barack Obama able to sit in a racist church for 20 years and still be elected president?

America has come so far in regards to racism, but Obama's preist Rev. Wrong constantly preached hate..How was Obama able to get elected with such a radical association??? Are voters in America that stupid?|||Not stupid, just gullible, because people listened to his cheer leading campaign, and did not look up the truth for them selves. And they are still being blinded by what obama is doing. But more and more people are waking up to the truth, so lets hope it is enough to get him out next election.|||yes.|||Until Obama was elected pres I really believed racism was dead in America, but he has shown us that it is still alive and well in the black community. I unfortunately dont think Rev Wright is out of the mainstream in the black community|||Because he's black, and the American populace didn't want to appear racist.





Edit: Oh yeah, he was also elected because he ran around for months yelling, "YES WE CAN!"|||because if you are against him you are now called the racist. if you have never voted for the democrats then you are a racist, its crazy reverse crap|||Because the left wing liberal Democrat loving media covered up everything they knew the voters wouldn't like and wouldn't vote for Obama then.|||It has been similar to Cuba under Batista except propaganda is required to rig elections since 1945 instead of force. All Presidents are selected already to not go to far off the mainstream views.


Now in Cuba even when people stayed home the military voted for the selected candidate and said that candidate won. Batista was the person the U.S.A. favoured in 1959 and he rigged the elections in Cuba.


I am not saying Obama is the same just that ever since Global Warming was a concern someone could have been voted in on basis of stopping oil use.


So elections must be rigged as well in U.S.A.





Perhaps The Pentagon does similar in U.S.A.





I note no elections held for positions in Pentagon command.





Now unless a person advocates Revolution against policies of government not Obama in particular then


does not matter who wins.


The U.S.A. says socialism is bad so people cannot vote off mainstream.





Also even though idea not new even having socialism and solar power, Community Stores , and such opposed by corporations. If citizens can get real debate by getting on media and use Constitution with government which respects that fine. Otherwise the revolution the N.S.A. spent so much time stopping occurs. Maybe in 21st Century. Who knows. Maybe someone can succeed maybe not.|||Because only whites can be racist, when any other skin color preaches and practices racism it's call pride. Are Americans that stupid? It appears so.|||How could a sitting President lie to the American people and the world about the existence of weapons of mass destruction, invade Iraq when at least 1/2 all it's citizens were against it and he not be impeached?





He still to this day believes he did the right thing!
