GG:
Do You still attend Trinity?
OBAMA:
Yep. Every week. 11 oclock service.
Ever been there? Good service.
I actually wrote a book called Dreams from My Father, its kind of a meditation on race. Theres a whole chapter on the church in that, and my first visits to Trinity.
I think what Obama meant to say is, “Every week, except when Wright is planning on saying something controversial, I stay home so I can deny it later in other words, I hardly ever attend.” There’s also this:
GG:
Do you have people in your life that you look to for guidance?
OBAMA:
Well, my pastor is certainly someone who I have an enormous amount of respect for.
I have a number of friends who are ministers. Reverend Meeks is a close friend and colleague of mine in the state Senate. Father Michael Pfleger is a dear friend, and somebody I interact with closely.
Ooops.
Good info. Thanks.
