You have obviously not heard him explain his decision. Which is why you support Hillary. You care not to actual hear or see the man's positions, you are merely partisan to one side, and only 'read' about the candidate though the spin of his opponents.

1) He specifically stated he does not renounce the church in any way- so anybody who is saying that he did it because 'of the church's racist comments' is lying- he never said there's a problem with what goes on in the church, he specified he felt there wasn't, so he can still be attacked for it if people want to. Not a position he would have taken if he cared about political correctness.

2) He specifically stated that he is leaving partly because he feels he should not be made to answer for everything the church does, so he's not hiding anything. He says the poeple in the church have their own positions, and he should have his own.

3) He specifically said that he is also leaving because he does not want the church to watch behind their backs all the time in every sermon to watch if they are saying something somebody might tape and use against Obama. The church should be free.

4) He specifically said that he knows people will take this the wrong way, and its their position to take. He is not stupid. If this was a strategic move, he should have known it would actually make him look bad.

But go on, carry on with your baseless attacks. After all, those of you accusing him have already proven how you arrive at your conclusions and how you think.
