FALSANI:
Do you have people in your life that you look to for guidance?
OBAMA:
Well, my pastor [Jeremiah Wright] 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.

Rev. Wright is still alive at age 81, but he has been very quiet since the Obama era. He keeps a low profile for his own reasons. I didn’t even hear him ranting and raving during the Trump Admin.
Obama sure knew how to pick his “friends”. His neighborhood was Moscow East, full of Communists and sympathizer.
Pfleger is a nutcase.
