Quick...Who is Reverend Jeremiah Wright and what are his ties to President Barack Obama?
If you're like most Americans you quite possibly may have no clue to what the answer of this question is. A question which in many ways helps to define the underlying character flaws of Barack Obama.
This knowledge gap may help to explain the results of a recent Gallup poll that says the American people have a higher regard for the character of Barack Obama than that of Mitt Romney.

Here's a refresher of just one of the people, Reverend Jeremiah Wright, who either surrounds the President now or who has surrounded Barack Obama in the past!
There are some of the names and faces who help to define a character that more Americans should get to know and understand before the November election!
Reverend Jeremiah Wright
After being largely ignored by the mainstream media during the first Obama campaign for the White House, the good Reverend made a comeback as described in this article from June 13, 2009:
"...Reverend Jeremiah Wright is not a member of a
fringe group. Far from it. For many, many years Reverend Jeremiah Wright was
the spiritual leader of the Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago. He was
the leader of members such asOprah Winfrey, and of course President Obama.
Each was a member of the church for quite some time, no doubt well aware of the anti-semetic views held because of the fact that they were expressed in sermons that they no doubt were in attendance for.
Each left the church for their own reasons: one to maintain the popularity and ratings of a television show, and one to become President of the United States.
One was uncomfortable with the views expressed by the Reverend, and one said that until the time he resigned from Trinity Church of Christ, he was unaware of the views held by his spiritual leader,advisor and long time close confidant until it became a risky move politically and Wright was made persona non grata by now President Obama.

Well the Reverend Wright is back in the news, and who is it
exactly that will be denouncing the things that he says? Not things uttered to
a fringe group in secret meetings or on a website, but within mainstream
religion. What did he say this time:
"WASHINGTON - President Obama's fiery ex-minister Jeremiah Wright is now blaming "them Jews" for keeping Obama from giving him a call these days.
"Them Jews aren't going to let him talk to me. I told my baby daughter that he'll talk to me in five years when he's a lame duck, or in eight years when he's out of office," Wright told the Daily Press in Newport News, Va.
"They will not let him talk to somebody who calls a spade what it is .... I said from the beginning: He's a politician; I'm a pastor. He's got to do what politicians do," Wright continued.
The White House wanted no part of another Wright controversy, and declined to comment. But officials pointed out that the First Couple last year dumped Wright, pastor emeritus of Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago, after he made incendiary remarks such as blaming the U.S. government for spreading AIDS..."
