Both Obama supporters and his critics should watch the interview. He answered every question with logic and intelligence. He tackled the Wright controversy perfectly and answered all questions about it without hesitation.

2. I'm watching it now......and he is very cogent, foreright and just great!
I am amazed that this DU community are trying to run with the "typical"....by that he explains that is, not extraordinary, but normal. That it isn't supposed to be rare that White people have certain reactions to other races.

Our leaders can't even be honest anymore, cause they get pounced on by the "what can we get him on" motley crew.

11. Touche!!
    I know that even a successful war against Iraq will require a US occupation of undetermined length, at undetermined cost, with undetermined consequences. I know that an invasion of Iraq without a clear rationale and without strong international support will only fan the flames of the Middle East, and encourage the worst, rather than best, impulses of the Arab world, and strengthen the recruitment arm of Al Qaeda.

7. How strange a world we live in when Larry King conducts better interviews than the rest of them

8. It was good.....BUT
I noticed he has a tendency to sometimes give long-winded answers to questions that don't require such a long-winded answer.

For example: Larry asked him "Have you talked to Rev Wright since the controversy"

He should've just answered with a simple: "No."
