From Clergy for Obama:
I’m supporting Barack Obama for many reasons, the most important is his commitment to moving away from the ‘gilded age’ back to strengthening and expanding the middle class. I respect his concern for the welfare of those who have been left behind, locked out, or overlooked in accessing good educations, jobs, healthcare, reasonable and non-exploitive mortgages. Barack Obama’s agenda reflects concern for all Americans. His Christian faith informs this commitment, his middle class background and mixed race ethnicity deeply shape his understanding and sympathies, and his quality of education, depth of wisdom, and breadth of experience qualify him to lead us.
Barack Obama will make us a better global partner as well. He understands the new culture of globalization and the deeply interconnected nature of our economies, ecology, and peoples. For these and many other reasons, I am wholeheartedly supporting Obama everywhere but at church!
