Future President?

So, I heard over the news, and verified online that Obama's pastor did indeed state that "The government lied about inventing the HIV virus as a means of genocide against people of color. The government lied."

Obama has said repeatedly that he does not necessarily agree with his religious leader on some issues, but I cant help but think that the pastor to Obama, is like that black sheep in everyone's family. The one that no matter how many times you try to talk to them, and you disagree with what they say.

However....
I cant stand how stupid this pastor seems. Really, if the US government created HIV/AIDS to destroy "people of color", then why in the world did it start in Africa!?? Because it's such a widespread disease that continues to grow like wildfire, they put it across the world to start?? If they really meant for it to be a manner of genocide here, they would have started it here.

Great way to show your love a country that You live in, and what a great way to use the power you have over people to show God's love.

Why is it that the people that I see that have genuine love and care for the people and world around them don't have the power to make such a huge difference as this one man who causes so much disappointment? For the fact that Obama is a member of this pastor's church, and is running for president, he gains power, and then, uses that power to completely make the "church" look bad.

Seriously, I'll probably get some ridicule for posting such a controversial topic, and esp when it's about politics, but if you're going to even show concern and care about the HIV/AIDS topic, do something productive about it!
