24. But he'd been working with Obama previously and extensively
I hear that Sen. Barack Obama's campaign will be doing a big event in Charleston, S.C., with several prominent black religious leaders in the morning.


Among them will be Kirbyjon Caldwell, the Methodist minister who delivered the inaugural prayer for President Bush and is a longtime friend and spiritual adviser to the president. Mr. Caldwell has been campaigning for Obama all year.


When was that written? That was written on December 3rd, 2007. After the McClurkin dust up (when Obama should have known better than to associate with any "Ex-Gay" people if he really cared for LGBT people) and before the SC primaries. It just goes to show where his priorities lie.


More.
