Possibly he knew other important people who went to the church and he used it to network with them, and make political friends.

A person who has a major problem with anti-Americanism will not be a member of a church like that for twenty years one way or the other.

Yes. There are plenty of nice harmless churches around that focus on community service and stuff like that. Especially if you're a politician, why join a church that has an anti-American megalomaniac as a pastor and racist core tenets? Unless you feel positive about it...

If I was American, I probably wouldn't vote at all this year. Douche and Turd.

Yeah, for real.

Douche is a little less disgusting, and that is what McCain is. I am so tired of how much the political candidates suck every presidential election. The Democratic and Republican nominee both suck really bad every election. I sometimes wonder if they are really the same party and getting their kicks by giving us awful candidates. I mean... Bob Dole? That had to have been a practical joke. George W. Bush? They must have been thinking, "Let's go get somebody who talks like a studdering first grader having trouble reading Dick and Jane to the class." I don't think Bush is an idiot, but a president needs to be an incredible speaker. If Bush had top notch communication skills, I don't think he would be so hated. On top of that, he has some really stupid policies. Then what do the Democrats have? John Kerry? Straight off the used car lot. I don't fathom how anybody could miss that. Bill Clinton? Straight off the used car lot, except probably the used car dealership employee of the month every month for ten years. There are plenty of worth a shit people out there. I can't believe the parties won't nominate them.

Who said he had a major problem with anti-americanism? Thats just political stuff. He probably went there for appearance sake, and didn't give a damn what the preacher said, one way or the other. If hes anti american, what does obama care?

Tons of people go to church simply because they are 'suppose' to. Lets assume he is one of them. What does he gain from leaving the church? Nothing. Sure he doesn't have to listen to the man anymore, but he never really listed to him anyway. What does he gain for telling the man to stop, or standing up for america? Not much, hes going to preach what he wants and obama isn't going to stop him. The only real gain in this situation is to sit back and just ignore it, it makes things easy.

To me this doesn't make him look bad in anyway. What it does show me, is that he is the kind of person who just goes with the flow, and doesn't like to rock the boat. How does that relate to how he would run the country? Well hes always promoting, change! He isn't going to change anything, its to much work. 20 years he just went with the flow, why do you think he is going to stir up stuff now? Then again, I already knew he had no plans to change anything. He has never spoken about real changes before, so if your paying attention its obvious. So this just tells me what I already knew, and isn't a big deal.

Then that just expands on he's a dumbass.

If you are running for president, and you do not consider that everything aobut you will be scrutinized, then you, sir, are stupid.
