Obama Speaks to Fathers During Sermon
Obama made his debut at his new church, the Apostolic Church of God, by delivering the sermon today, Father’s Day. The presumed Democratic nominee for President, Obama told the congregation:
We also need families to raise our children. We need fathers to realize that responsibility does not end at conception. We need them to realize that what makes you a man is not the ability to have a child. It's the courage to raise one.
His speech was filled with both personal and political messages, speaking out against the shortage of police on the streets, money for schools, and the proliferation of hand guns. And he called upon fathers to rise up to their obligations. [Trib]
