OBAMA WATCH! Father's day wisdom from the candidate:
Bravo, Sen. Obama. Bravo. On this issue, you are precisely right.Barack Obama celebrated Father's Day by calling on black fathers, who he said are "missing from too many lives and too many homes," to become active in raising their children. Black fathers are "missing from too many lives and too many homes," Barack Obama said Sunday. "They have abandoned their responsibilities, acting like boys instead of men. And the foundations of our families are weaker because of it," the Democratic presidential candidate said Sunday at a largely black church in his hometown. [...] "We can't simply write these problems off to past injustices," Obama said Sunday. "Those injustices are real. There's a reason our families are in disrepair ... but we can't keep using that as an excuse." Source
