there has always been undercurrent to his candidacy, a whisper, if you will (potluck dinner)



"I've been watching that John Adams miniseries on HBO. You seen this? Boy, it's really good. You know, it's fun to see all the Founding Fathers. They're all in it. John Adams, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, John McCain." --Jay Leno

"Moving on. Throughout Barack Obama's startling run for the presidency, there has always been undercurrent to his candidacy, a whisper, if you will, that he was not of this nation. A foreign name. Perhaps a Muslim background. But recent events have clarified Obama's standing. The good news? He's a Christian, a committed member of Chicago's Trinity United Church of Christ. 

The bad news? This is his pastor [on screen: footage of Rev. Jeremiah Wright saying, 'The government gives them the drugs, builds bigger prisons, passes a three-strike law and then walks up to sing 'God Bless America.' No, no, no, not God bless America. Goddamn America']. All right. Well, thank you, pastor. Now I believe Linda has some announcements about Sunday's potluck dinner." --Jon Stewart
