Now It's Obama's Turn To Make the Adjustments
by Roland S. Martin
Ask any boxing trainer and he'll tell you that you can walk into the ring with a well-designed plan to beat your opponent, but as the fight progresses, you might have to alter your plan.
After losing 11 straight races to Sen. Barack Obama, Sen. Hillary Clinton was faced with a tough choice: continue on the same path and keep losing or shake up your fight plan to keep battling another day.
She accepted the "resignation" of her campaign manager, Patti Solis Doyle; brough ...

Roland Martin is an astute observer of political antics and pracmatics. Senator Obama, why not add him to your already outstanding advisory team on your way to the White House!

Hello Roland,
My name is Rosa Hodge Mustafa. I reside in Charlotte, NC and I have been so aggravated by the tone and the constant questioning of Barack Obama's religion. I have a Muslim last name because I was once married to an Arab guy and we have a child together. I never changed my name because I wanted my child and I to share the same name. I am a Christian...I have always been a Christian. I am born again Christian, washed in the blood Christian and I resent anyone who challenges me because of my last name. Please tell your peer that if a person has said they are Christian in which Barack Obama has...it is egregious for anyone to imply or say otherwise.
If you remember the movie Gladitor there was a scene in which the African guy tells Russel Crow ( Gladitor) " You have a great name....they must first kill your name before they can destroy you." They are seeking to kill Barack's name and after that they will destroy him politically. Tell the Man of God to been strong because we are not ignorant to these ways. Love your contribution and remain a strong voice. God Bless

Roland: I don't like to talk about the media, but I think that CNN has over reported Obama's pastor's comments. I would like for ypu to challenge CNN by asking how many time they have played the excerpts from Rev Wright's sermon.

Read and act properly.
It is so sad that some myopic individuals like the publishers of news-max still exist. This attack on Senator Obama is racially motivated. Pastor Wright's Message is his spiritual opinions and he has right to say what ever he wants( freedom of speech). I am a christian and faithful to my Church. I listen to my Pastor every Sunday. I do not always agree to everything my Pastor says. My responsibility is only to support him in prayers. He is not God . He is a human being with human experience and background, therefore he needs prays and wisdom to be in alignment with God's will for himself and his followers. Senator Obama should not be a victim to a reckless use of power and position. Obama does not have same background and upbringing as Pastor Wright, therefore he can never reason same way or understand that kind of preaching as presented by his Pastor. Obama was just one of the flocks in the church. He never wrote the sermons for his pastor. Please stop this scandal. Let us focus on how this great country can continue to stand tall. The oil price is sky-rocketing and innocent children are dying everyday in these foreign wars and you have time to criticize our only hope for a true change. Enough of stupidity and nonsense Politics. Please let us get serous about Obama-Clinton or Clinton Obama Ticket, so that the rebuilding of America will begin.
I love U.S.A. May this great country never fail, in Jesus name amen.
