Million's of Christian's and non christian audience were watching with anticipation, the Civil Forum at Rev. Rick Warren founder of a Megan Saddleback church in Lake Forest, California, of presidential nominee Democratic Barack Obama and nominee Republican John Mc Cain, CNN news station set the plat form for a intense interview on religious based questioning. I watch it twice, so I could really be able to understand the entire ordeal. What I found by watching this telecast is, the right question was direct and to the point. Each personal question was delivery in their style wording. Overall, I believe it was pretty good. But, what I noticed to be a little unsettling as a on viewer was, Reverend Rick, was not as warm in his questioning. But, was showing demeanor of over joy in connection with a fellow white individual. He sent signal's with smiling, and hand jester's time and time again out to the Reverend. But, the relationship with Obama was of let just get through this formality. The cold demeanor was so profound, Obama looked like he couldn't wait to get out church. Obama didn't act like the lion of the century, people were saying he was. His well wisher's expected a better response for the questions. I believe Obama was certainly missed the mark on this flat form. Now, I am not racist or do I like to go around gossiping men of the cloth. I ask god to forgive me if people believe that is my intend. I just wanted to understand where this feeling arrived from. Well, I am 58 years old, I too have experienced this type of behavior Rev. Rick tried to sham his behavior of ignorance of hidden racism. I am so sorry I had to explain it in this manner, but I have to be true to what I saw and what I feel all the way through the question on both parties.

Incidently, I believe Barack Obama could have been better prepared, and if hadn't felt that old Afro-America feeling's of he just not good enough to make the better team, meaning the superior white racist behavior rule. I hope this minister is not getting a kick back from this event, because this type unfair practices would really display a more sinister act christian should take inconsideration.
