The Clinton's church deserted an African-American neighborhood
Immanuel Baptist Church deserted a heavily African-American area in downtown Little Rock and moved to fancier quarters in a wealthier, whiter section of west Little Rock.

Hey, if you want to make church politics an issue...

4. The Clinton's are Methodists but in reference to Immanuel
Baptist Church, they sold the property to Arkansas Children's Hospital because it was an old church and then the hospital could expand and Immanuel isn't in a wealthy white part of Little Rock, it's out west just outside of midtown and they built a huge church 4 times the size of the old one but being a rich, white area, it isn't. As a matter of fact, the neighborhood it's located the homes were built in the late 60's to mid 70's. The rich, part is out west about 10 miles from Immanuel Baptist Church.

6. Bill Clinton is Southern Baptist, Hillary is Methodist
they have remained in their denominations despite attending many different churches.

7. Why are you trying to pick the scab and cause more arguments?
Are you a bully or just an asshole?
