2. Truly inspirational indeed!

Makes you wonder why the media never put this sermon on. After all, Obama did write a book with this title. I don't know what's worse, the fact that this was never pushed publicly or the fact that so many of us sat idly by never even asking the question, "What was in his 'Audacity of Hope' sermon?" You know this was the first sermon they checked out, deviously searching for anything that they could possibly exploit for political advantage. Somehow they were able to control the minds of many people to the extent that most people never thought twice about never finding out what was in Wright's Audacity of Hope sermon.

On a more devious note, I bet when Hannity heard this sermon and heard Wright mention that he had gotten into trouble as a youth, he probably started digging into Wright's past trying to find out what bad things he might have done as a teenager. Hillary probably sent her campaign to sift through Wright's kindergarten papers as well.

3. I can't read it right now, but I can kick & recommend until I can return.
Just the first few statements are more than enough to draw me back.

Thank you for posting this! :applause:
