Perhaps the "black pastors" would do best to stick to religion and concentrate less on politics and telling their parishoners how to vote.

This post is deceptively described.
The primary listed title is "Black Pastors wary of Obama".
However the article that it is based on is entitled "Pro-life black pastors are wary of Obama" which is a very different topic.
More truth in advertising required please!

I counted 4 Black pastors quoted; there was no survey.
The article was reasonable, casting doubt on Obama's support without being a total hit piece; but the essential point remains anecdotal until they can show some kind of ratio or poll.
I would still bet that even conservative african american pastors are going with Obama.
