As an agnostic and political centrist, this is something of a non-issue for me.

If I dedicated my life though to the legacy of black society in America however, I might feel a little pandered to and offended by this puppet, Obama, bringing in Martin's bible as some sort of symbolic effort to show he's of the people.

The thing is, everything about the guy seems to be scripted and for show.  People just now realizing it is funny and also sad because it shows how dumb we are as a nation.

I've been watching nothing but Cornel West clips since I watched this, thanks.

I really respect him as an intellectual, he actually has a soul.
