Old, Black Leaders that aren't helping Obama.
If everything was so black and white like Fox thinks, then why do these famous Black Leaders not support Sen. Obama? So it's not just Rev. Wright giving Obama a hard time anymore. I had no idea that Robert Johnson(BET founder) called Barack a drug dealer! Link has all of the them:

2. Because the old guard got their bread and butter from the
old system. Barrack is changing that. Plus, the smarter ones know that they can do nothing but hurt him if they're seen supporting him too much.

That's why I am so glad that people like Jessie Jackson had an attitude towards him in the beginning. If Jessie and Al had jumped on his bandwagon, they would have sunk him much deeper than Wright.

6. Looks like it's time for the Old Black Leaders to consider RETIREMENT.
