After only 7 months in office it looks like President Obama can’t use his skin color to cover-up his lack of support for Christian values because the black Christian community is beginning to speak out.
For example Antioch Bible Church Pastor Hutcherson declared that his Christianity would prevent him from giving any support for Obama, saying, “A person can be as black as a piece of coal, [but] if he goes against God’s biblical views, I would not support him, I would not endorse him, I would not even give a smile in his direction so people could even think that I endorse him, because God is my God, the Bible is my playbook, and I run it the way it is written.”
Anti-gay pundits have targeted President Obama as lacking “black experience” and being insufficiently Christian after Obama addressed a gathering of GLBT Americans and paralleled their journey toward full legal equality with an earlier chapter in the civil rights movement that saw African Americans making the same demands and the same progress. |
