CBNNews.com - Comments continued Wednesday over Sen. Barack Obama and his controversial pastor.
Black evangelical leader Bishop Harry Jackson said Obama has not gone far enough in addressing racial remarks his pastor has made over the years.

bama should have shared more of his own religious views in his speech yesterday,
rather than just disagree with P

Bishop Jackson chairs the High Impact Leadership Coalition.
He believes skeptics still want to know what Obama absorbed from his pastor's sermons on "liberation theology."
Jackson also called Wright a "radical" and said he's far more outside the mainstream of the black church than Obama has acknowledged.
Pastor Nate Atwood of Kempsville Presbyterian Church in Virginia Beach, Va. said he was moved by Obama's speech.
