I strongly suspect Obama wishes Wright would occupy himself otherwise.

You can tell by the structure of Wright’s press conference that he didn’t consult ANY political professionals. Wright answered questions haphazardously, and with a discerning tone, even taunting press officials at time.

It’s possible that Wright, called Obama’s campaign a couple of minutes to say, “Hey, you migt want to turn to channel 5.” I can guaruntee that Obama’s campaign played no role in the media circus that occured on Monday morning.

I can’t see how it would be a strategy unless Obama decided he really doesn’t want to be president…

I believe that he is a Hillary supporter. He is helping her more than Obama. He is not Playing with a “Full Deck”. I think he has found where the Big money is coming from..Guest Speaking.

I think the controversy is getting just a little bit “convenient” for obama…He wants people to think he and wright have distanced themselves from each other..so obama can try to tell people “see, I told you I don’t believe what he teaches”..Well I am not buying it..I think it is more BS put out by obama camp for their own good. It’s too contrived.

NO. Why would Obama do that to himself? This guy sees a few rays of light and wont stop until its gone. What was the need of CNN putting the entire speech? He is not Obama and Obama is not him. They are doing this to keep an association with Obama. They won’t let it die. They say is this going to hurt Obama? HElloo! Stop putting him on tv to do more damage. I’m black and he should just refrain until this is over with. Just because you have mouth doesnt mean you should use it.

If they were working this thing together, Wright’s publicity tour would have ended where it began. It would have been over after that creampuff interview with Moyers.

Let’s see, Mentor, 20 plus year follower, Married them, Baptized the kids, part of Obama team, Ah No!

Think it is a part of a bigger sceme to take race-light off Obama.

No Wright is all about Wright and none of us lowly mortals that look up to him for guidance.

Obama wants Wright to go away but it is gift that keeps on giving.
