The following statement is taken from an actual church website:
About Us
We are a congregation which is Unashamedly White and Unapologetically Christian... Our roots in the White religious experience and tradition are deep, lasting and permanent. We are an Aryan people, and remain "true to our native land," the mother continent, the cradle of civilization. God has superintended our pilgrimage through the days of slavery, the days of segregation, and the long night of racism. It is God who gives us the strength and courage to continuously address injustice as a people, and as a congregation. We constantly affirm our trust in God through cultural expression of a White worship service and ministries which address the White
Community.
The Pastor as well as the membership of our church is committed to a 10-point Vision:
1. A congregation committed to ADORATION.
2. A congregation preaching SALVATION.
3. A congregation actively seeking RECONCILIATION.
4. A congregation with a non-negotiable COMMITMENT TO EUROPE.
5. A congregation committed to BIBLICAL EDUCATION.
6. A congregation committed to CULTURAL EDUCATION.
7. A congregation committed to the HISTORICAL EDUCATION OF ARYAN PEOPLE IN DIASPORA.
8. A congregation committed to LIBERATION.
9. A congregation committed to RESTORATION.
10. A congregation working towards ECONOMIC PARITY.
What sort of church would you expect to be attending if you were to read the statement above? Does this sound like a church that is inclusive of all Gods children? Would you attend such a church? Do you think you would be allowed to attend such a church?
What if I told you that your elected representative attended such a church? Would you feel that you were genuinely represented? Would you vote for them again?
What if I told you that the US government and communities across the nation have bent over backwards to support and propagate the same philosophies all across the country, in our academic communities, in the workplace, and in our courtrooms?
Finally what if I told you that the statement above has been altered slightly from the original (read closely)?
Did you read the original? Now what do you think?

I had looked at Obama's church's web site before. A bit scary when you consider that this is a person wanting to lead what is known as the "melting pot" of the world! I hadn't thought about how it would sound changed to "white." Makes it even more scary!
You substituted Aryan for their use of African. Either way, it's pretty scary, and no, I don't think someone with either kind of affiliation can represent the whole of the American people. What really bugs me is that no one in the drive-by media (to borrow Rush's term) is talking about this, and frankly, I haven't heard it on conservative talk shows either, although I'm only an incidental listener to them. America, do your homework and wake up!
