Obama Videos

Some new Obama videos. 1st up, is his sermon last Sunday at Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, where Martin Luther King, Jr. was once the pastor. The man introducing him (who endorsed no one and had both Bill Clinton and Mike Huckabee at the MLK Day ceremonies the next day) is the current pastor, Rev. Dr. Raphael G. Warnock, whom I have met. We are both strong members of the Baptist Peace Fellowship of North America and I had the privilege 2 summers ago of giving an award to the legendary civil rights leader, Rev. C. T. Vivian, from that very pulpit. It is humbling for a Southern good ol'boy whose parents were bit players in the Movement, I'll tell you.




The next video is from a rally in Sumter, SC:



The final video today is an interview with Maya Soetoro-Ng, Barack's half-sister, who is Asian-American. I found it fascinating and one more reason to consider him the first real 21st C. U.S. presidential candidate.
