A Black Pastor Speaks Out on President Obama’s Past
Pajamas Media ^ | Dec. 5 | Ron Radosh

Posted on 12/06/2009 12:22:01 PM PST by AJKauf

President Barack Obama’s past continues to haunt him. A friend e-mailed me this revealing post by Bishop E.W. Jackson Sr., pastor of The Exodus Faith Ministries in Chesapeake, Virginia. Bishop Jackson wrote it last June, but I have not seen it circulated or mentioned before now. Now, someone found it and put it on their own blog.

Like so many of us, Bishop Jackson describes himself as once a leftist Democrat; an African-American who grew up in a black urban community in Pennsylvania, and a man who is disturbed about what he calls “a strain of anti-Semitism in the black community.”

Bishop Jackson is also a Harvard Law School graduate, and evidently, was aware of Barack Obama during the year of Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan’s “Million Man March.” He asks the following question: “The question is whether Obama, given his Muslim roots and experience in Farrakhan’s Chicago, shares this antipathy for Israel and Jewish people. Is there any evidence that he does?” This is the Bishop’s considered answer:....

It is clear we have the wrong person in the WH and the wrong people in Congress.

First, the President was taught for twenty years by a virulent anti-Semite, the Reverend Jeremiah Wright. In the black community it is called “sitting under”. You don’t merely attend a church, you “sit under” a Pastor to be taught and mentored by him. Obama “sat under” Wright for a very long time. He was comfortable enough with Farrakhan and Wright’s friend to attend and help organize his “Million Man March”. I was on C-Span the morning of the march arguing that we must never legitimize a racist and anti-Semite, no matter what “good” he claims to be doing. Yet a future President was in the crowd giving Farrakhan his enthusiastic support.

Funny, I don't remember a single discussion of Nobama at the MMM or of his ties to FaraKKKan, despite their frequent contact.

Wonder why the media never mentioned it ...

In speaking to the “Muslim World,” he did not address the widespread Islamic hatred of Jews. Instead he attacked Israel over the growth of West Bank settlements. Surely he knows that settlements are not the crux of the problem. The absolute refusal of the Palestinians to accept Israel’s right to exist as a Jewish state is the insurmountable obstacle. That’s where the pressure needs to be placed, but this President sees it differently. He also made the preposterous comparison of the Holocaust to Palestinian “dislocation”.

Obama is NOT “African American,” as that phrase is understood now. He has no slave blood, is not descended from people brought here against their will after having been sold by Arab slave hunters, and furthermore is only of half African descent and spent most of his childhood outside of the US in Muslim countries.

How many black AMERICANS can say the same? None, I would bet.

I have read comments on this site referring to Black folks or African-Americans who are supposedly in the tank for Barack Hussein Obama no matter what, because Obama is a Black man. While I agree that a good number of Black folks strongly support Mr. Obama now, I reject these negative comments directed toward African-Americans centered on their “support” for Barack Obama as hogwash. First, millions of young Blacks are unemployed or under employed due to the “Obama” economic policy. Ditto for thousands of small, Black owned businesses that are hurting or forced to go out of business because of the failings of Barack Obama. Second, it is not wise or pragmatic for Blacks to disagree with the first Black POTUS of the USA. They would get tarred and feathered by their own kind, no matter how correct and truthful their reasoning might be. IMHO, I believe that multitudes of Blacks have no use for Barack Obama, and....they fear the lasting damage he is inflicting on Blacks that will last a very long time. So many Blacks have been instrumental im maintaining the freedom in our country throughout our history. It is really a shame that most cannot see the forest for the trees as it regards their personal success, well being, broad available opportunity and individual freedom. One continues to hope the majority of Black Americans will see and clearly realize that Barack Obama is no real friend of the Black man in America!!!! The good news is that more Black ministers and leaders see the damage this POTUS Obama is inflicting on people of color, as well as the general population in total. And....little by little the truth about this ill equipped leader is coming forth.

Just FYI, Barack Hussein Obama lives two blocks from the Nation of Islam HQ in Hyde Park. Coincedence? I think not.

Obama hanged out with a Communist named Frank Marshall Davis. He is connected to the Hawaiian communist Party.

It shaped him and his thinking along with Saul Alinsky and Antonio Gramsci among others which he read.

Maybe the Black Pastors are going to lead the movement to remove the “long legged mac daddy” and “million man marcher” [and possibly child of Farrakhan] from office.

It would be an answer to prayer and through heavenly guidance if they would.

What I am wondering is: Where are the outspoken Black Entrepreneurs? Are they out there and is Media ignoring them?

I have posted the same numerous times. 0bama has zero black ancestors in America and zero slave blood. American blacks are ridiculous for thinking he is one of them. Real Afro-Americans are from the West Coast of Africa and their tribes would have fought 0bama’s tribe.

Obama is from the East Coast of Africa
