How do you feel about this?

I have asked this question before, but now that the election is getting closer I wanted to ask again.

This is democrat candidate for president, Barack Obama's church. http://www.tucc.org/about.htm

What do you think would occur if a white male running for president belonged to a church like this?

Update:

Griz - he acknowledged it himself.

    Wow! Just another reason why I'm not voting for him-I found that so racist and offensive; it's almost cult-like I would say.

    I went and looked at that link and it is a little scary!

    I choose to NOT vote for Obama for other reasons though. Mostly because he lacks the kind of training in foreign policies and affairs that other , more qualified candidates, have.

    We have had presidents and other notable famous people who were members of the Masons (Freemasons). Should the following presidents have NOT been elected because of their Masonic membership?

    Buchanan, James

    Ford, Gerald R.

    Garfield, James A.

    Harding, Warren G.

    Jackson, Andrew

    Johnson, Andrew

    McKinley, William

    Monroe, James

    Polk, James Knox

    Roosevelt, Franklin D.

    Roosevelt, Theodore

    Taft, William Howard

    Truman, Harry S.

    Washington, George

    Should Mitt Romney NOT be elected our President because he is a Mormon?

    While a person's religion is normally a personal thing, once you are a candidate for public office, your religion, thoughts, beliefs, ..everything is now public domain. Some voters will be turned off by a candidates religious views, but others will seek more info about the candidate themselves.

    oooook so he's one of those Black people so still think they belong to Africa? Sounds like a Black Klu Klux Klan to me! Does he even have any feelings for American, it doesn't sound like it from what that church says, He doesn't want to support American, he wants to destroy us!! He's not getting my vote!!! If a white person went to a church like that, as in that Church that is for Black Africa? He would be persecuted!!!!! Or you mean the opposite of it, a white extremist church, would be like the Klu Klux klan and he would get arrested!! But our country is ignoring these Black extremists! Whites are the only ones that can be racist apparently blacks can do whatever they want!P

    Okay. So let me just say that I know plenty of Churches that affiliate themselves with a heritage.

    Like, polish, Norwegian, German, Italian, Armenian, Russian, Irish, Swedish, just to name a few.

    You would deny the people with an African heritage? That's not right.

    I belonged to a Church that was of Norwegian heritage. They didn't apologize for this heritage nor did anyone have a problem with it. If I was a white man coming from that church, nobody would even give it a second thought.

    and that's the name of that tune.

    Also, people need to get it straight. Is he a bad Muslim or a black supremest christian. This is all just rumor and falsehood.

    He (the fictional white candidate) would probably be labeled a KKK member or something. How sad.

    OK.

    It is a church.

    At least he is not "born again".

    He did not ever die in his Christian beliefs. The "born agains" are the ones to be wary of.
