When various individuals say our country is a racist nation, it implies or suggest that the nation as a whole universally endorsed, engaged or allowed such (racist) practices to exist without challenge. Even if one concludes after looking at all the evidence that our nation is indeed racist, it is only fair that one should acknowledge and/or recognize the efforts of those who tried to prevent or eradicate these practices. Recognizing the efforts of those groups, organizations and individuals who fought for the rights of others is the on

As I watched the National Prayer Service for President Barack Obama, I was reminded of our responsibilities as Christians, ministers and pastors. As we all know, the scriptures tells us that “Righteousness exalts a nation,” and we are “the light of world” and “the salt of the earth.”
As Christians, it is not our job to advise the President on foreign policies, defense or the economy. But it is our job to do as other leaders of faith have done in the past, and that is to advise him on issues that do not line up with the Word of God. It is not enough for us to preach to our congregations about right and wrong, it is our responsibility to speak to the leadership of the nation as did several biblical patriots.

He is not known for freeing the slaves, he never sponsored or passed one Civil Rights Bill, he never marched one time to protest racial injustices, he never died for what he believed in, and he never served one day as President of the United States and yet he seem to far more popular than Abraham Lincoln, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and perhaps God himself. His name is Barack Obama.

Recently, when President-elect Obama chose Rev. Rick Warren to give the invocation at the January 20, 2009 Presidential Inauguration, many gays and liberals protested because Rev. Warren supports a Constitutional Amendment on Marriage. Am I Homo Phobic is a carefully thought out editorial on the issue of homosexuality and heterosexuality.

From time to time, I receive e-mails from individuals who think I am harsh and unfair in my analysis and criticism of President Barack Obama. Some are convinced that I do not like him because I disagree with him on several issues surrounding Abortion and Gay Rights. I have no political objections to this well-accomplished politician, who has one of the most beautiful families that will ever occupy the Whitehouse.

While millions of African Americans are lining up to elect America’s first black president and millions of conservatives are lining up to elect America’s first female vice president, few are lining up to make a difference in their community. Because the media places so much emphasis on the office of the President of the United States, many African Americans are overlooking the fact that many of the conditions that plague America’s inner-cities can not be solved by the President of the United States or by government officials (a fact that Obama has stated several times in his speeches and in his book: The Audacity of Hope).

One of Obama’s primary campaign themes is to give tax relief to the middle class while taxing the rich so that we can spread the wealth. This is a very noble endeavor and similar to a work that I started as a teenager to feed the poor during the holiday season. Since millions of Obama followers share his concern for the less fortunate and middle class, I suggest the following:

Arrogance: They praised him and referred to him as a savior and the messiah;” he joked about being the messiah (Press Club 2008); he rejected scripture to supports gay rights; he refers to preachers who speak against homosexuality, as “gay bashing;” he supports abortion (a woman’ right to20choose); he wants to overturn the Defensive Marriage Act (which states that marriage should be between a man and woman); he wants to remove the discrimination clause in the Faith Based Initiative Program (which protects the church’s hiring practices); and in his rise to power he consistently told cheering crowds of thousands that his time has come and he will bring about change. Who is this man of arrogance? He is President Elect - Barack Oba
