go to about 3:18 to hear the inflammatory comments in context
Hillary, who I believe is responsible for this attack on Obama and Wright, who I do not support, nauseates me.

Thanks for the link psychrn!
There certainly is more context to the comments than meets the eye. I was concerned about the "God d*** America" comment. This style of preaching and method of attention-getting is certainly controversial. Not surprisingly (given our sound-bite media), the comment in context isn't nearly as inflammatory as it comes across.
I took his point to be that our government, like all other governments, has santioned eggregious acts (slavery, the killing of civilians, etc). Thus, "God d*** America" when it engages in such acts. Overall, I took the point to be that we shouldn't have faith that our government will always do the right thing. Only God deserves such faith.
Obama, as evidenced by his own speeches, doesn't engage in the same style of saying shocking things to gain attention and make a point.
My two cents!

PA voting will be interesting..... Record Number of Pa. Democrats Registered - The Caucus - Politics ... Record Number of Pa. Democrats Registered By Katharine Q. Seelye Updated | 6:35 p.m. PHILADELPHIA — Democratic voter registration in Pennsylvania has hit a record of more than 4 million voters.
“It’s kind of incredible,” Harry A. VanSickle, the state’s elections commissioner, tells The Caucus as his office prepares to post the new numbers. “It’s the first time we know of that a party in Pennsylvania has gone over 4 million.”
A total of 4,044,952 people are now registered to vote in the Democratic primary; a total of 3,215,478 are registered for the Republican primary.....
...More than 120,000 new voters joined the rolls since Jan. 1. In addition, more than 86,000 others switched from other parties to register as Democrats, while only 12,000 switched registration to become Republicans. ABC News: PA.: Home of the Most Party-Switchers? Republican Crossovers Fuel Record Democratic Voter Registration in Pennsylvania.
The Philadelphia suburbs and the state's central region, including counties where Republicans still outnumber Democrats, had some of the highest proportions of party-switchers.

When your parents tell you they've changed party affiliation for the first time ever along with several friends so they can vote for Hillary, suspect a huge turnout for her in PA.

This crossover voting to influence the outcome of the opposite party is paramount to voter fraud.I wish there could be a legal consequence to this activity. Rush Limbaugh,with his "Operation Chaos" has been touting and promoting this since before the Texas , Ohio primaries.
If the cross over voting is because the voter truly believes the candidate would make the better president, then it would not be fraudulent.
