Obama and Wright: Different Worldviews奥巴马和赖特：不同的世界观，
By Ted Glick | “We did not have to go through any of the violent upheavals that Europe was forced to endure as it shed its feudal past.由泰德glick | “我们并没有去通过任何的暴力动乱，欧洲是被迫忍受，因为它摆脱封建过去。 Our passage from an agricultural to an industrial society was eased by the sheer size of the continent, vast tracts of land and abundant resources that allowed new immigrants to continually remake themselves.” Barack Obama, The Audacity of Hope, p.我们通过从农业到工业社会，是缓解由庞大的大陆，大片的土地和丰富的资源，让新移民不断重塑自己“ 。巴拉克奥巴马，狂放，希望页 55
Jeremiah Wright summarized the difference between him and Obama in his interviews last weekend as, “I do what pastors do.耶利米赖特归纳之间的差异，他和奥巴马在他的采访，上周末， “我做牧师做的。 He does what politicians do.他在做什么政治家这样做。 I am not running for office.”我不会竞选公职“ 。
But there is more to it than this.但有更多比这一点。
Rev. Wright is an unapologetic African American preacher who has no hesitation speaking the truth in the best of the religious prophetic tradition.牧师赖特是一个毫无歉意非洲裔美国人的布道者谁也毫不迟疑地说实话在最好的宗教先知的传统。 He uses the word “imperialism.” He talks about “oppressors” and “oppressed” and “God’s desire for a radical change.” He says, accurately, that “you cannot do terrorism on other people and expect it never to come back on you.”他用这个词“帝国主义” ，他谈“压迫者”和“被压迫”和“上帝的愿望，彻底改变” ，他说，准确，即： “你不能这样做对恐怖主义的其他人，并期望它从来没有来回到你的“ 。
Barack Obama, as is clear from a close reading of “The Audacity of Hope” and a review of his Democratic Party political career, is all about rising up within the world of the Democratic and Republican parties, the corporate duopoly.巴拉克奥巴马，由于是明确的从仔细阅读“狂放，希望” ，并审查他的民主党的政治生涯，是所有关于崛起在世界的民主，共和两党，该公司的双寡头。 And if you are committed to that political world and becoming President through it, it is not surprising that you would do things like whitewash US history, as the quote above does.如果你是致力于政治世界，并成为总统透过它，这是不足为奇的，你会做的事情一样，粉饰美国历史上，作为引述上述是否。 Genocidal policies toward Indigenous people, the hideous reality of slavery and Jim Crow, the invasion of Mexico and takeover of much of its territory, even the Civil War and Reconstruction: nowhere in Obama’s book does he address these truths of our history.种族灭绝政策，对土著人民的，丑恶的现实，奴役和吉姆克劳，入侵墨西哥和接管其大部分领土，甚至内战和重建：无处在奥巴马的书，他是否解决这些真理，我们的历史。
Obama said at his April 29th press conference where he broke with his pastor of 20 years that, “What became clear to me was that he was presenting a world view that contradicts who I am and what I stand for.奥巴马说，在他4月29日的记者招待会上，他打破了他的牧师20年， “是什么成为我清楚的是，他提出一个世界认为，矛盾的我是谁和我的立场。 And what I think particularly angered me was his suggestion that my previous denunciation of his remarks were somehow political posturing.什么，我觉得特别愤怒，我是他的建议，即我先前退出他的言论被某种政治姿态。 . 。 . 。 so where I start hearing comments about conspiracy theories and AIDS and suggestions that somehow Minister Farrakhan has been a great voice in the 20th century, then that goes directly at who I am and what I believe this country needs.”所以我开始听证会的意见，关于阴谋的理论和艾滋病和建议，在某种程度上部长法拉康一直是伟大的声音在二十世纪，那么直接在我是谁和什么，我相信这个国家的需要“ 。
It is true that a handful of statements made by Wright in response to questions from the press at the National Press Club gave them an opening to caricature him as too radical, too out of touch with the US political mainstream, the political mainstream that Obama has been laboring mightily, for years, particularly over the past 16 months, to steer in a somewhat more progressive direction.这是事实的少数所作的声明赖特在回答问题时从报章在全国新闻俱乐部给了他们一个开放的漫画，他过于激进，过于脱离美国的政治主流，政治主流，这已奥巴马被劳动mightily ，多年以来，尤其是在过去16个月内，把握导向，有些更进步的方向。
It is also true that, faced with near-certain, continued media attention on the Obama/Wright relationship, Obama needed to address the “worldview” differences between them, which are real.这也是事实，面对近一些，继续媒体注意对奥巴马/赖特的关系，奥巴马需要解决的“世界观”之间的分歧，这是真实的。 But was it really necessary for him to use words like these in doing so: “divisive and destructive,” “the spectacle that we saw yesterday,” and “a bunch of rants that aren’t grounded in truth”?但它真的有需要，他使用的词语，像这些在这样做的： “分裂性和破坏性” ， “眼镜，我们看到昨天， ”和“一群rants是没有根植于真理”呢？
Obama said that “when you start focusing on the plight of the historically oppressed, you lose sight of what we have in common.奥巴马说： “当你开始着眼于困境，历史上受压迫，你忽略了我们的共同点。 . 。 . 。 it doesn’t describe properly what I believe, in the power of faith to overcome but also to bring people together.”它并未说明，妥善什么，我相信，在权力的信念克服，而且使人民的共同努力“ 。
If he truly believes that he’s different in this way than Wright, then he didn’t read all of Wright’s National Press Club speech, or he deliberately discounted major parts of it, like this conclusion:如果他真正相信他的不同，这种方式比赖特的话，他没有看过的所有Wright的全国新闻俱乐部演讲，他故意或折扣的主要部分，像这样的结论：
“The prophetic theology of the black church has always seen and still sees all of God’s children as sisters and brothers, equals who need reconciliation, who need to be reconciled as equals. “先知神学的黑人教会，一直看到仍然认为，所有上帝的儿女，作为兄弟姐妹，等于谁需要和解，谁需要加以调和当作平等的。 . 。 . 。 Reconciliation means we embrace our individual rich histories, all of them.和解意味着我们拥抱我们的个人丰富的历史，所有这些。 We retain who we are, as persons of different cultures, while acknowledging that those of other cultures are not superior or inferior to us; they are just different from us.我们保留我们是谁，正如不同的人文化，同时承认，相对于其他文化不是上司或不如我们，他们是从不同的只是我们。 We root out any teaching of superiority, inferiority, hatred or prejudice.我们根指出，任何的教学优势，自卑，仇恨或偏见。 And we recognize for the first time in modern history, in the West, that the other who stands before us with a different color of skin, a different texture of hair, different music, different preaching styles and different dance moves; that other is one of God’s children just as we are, no better, no worse, prone to error and in need of forgiveness just as we are.我们认识到，为第一次在近代历史上，在西方国家，其他谁的立场摆在我们面前的一个不同颜色的皮肤，不同质地的头发，不同的音乐，不同的说教方式和不同的舞蹈动作;另一种是一对上帝的儿女，正如我们，没有更好的，没有更糟的是，容易出错，并在有需要的宽恕，正如我们。 Only then will liberation, transformation and reconciliation become realities and cease being ever elusive ideals.”只有到那时，解放，转型与和解变成现实，并停止被以往任何时候都难以实现的理想“ 。
Barack Obama has made a genuine effort to run a different kind of campaign, one which is more issue-oriented and less about the divisive and dishonest personal attacks that often characterize what passes for “political debate” in this country.巴拉克奥巴马作出了真正的努力，来执行不同种运动，其中更着重于具体问题的少，约分化和不诚实的人身攻击，往往通过的特点是什么“政治辩论”在这个国家。 But in this case, the case of Rev. Wright, Obama has failed his own test.但在这种情况下，案件牧师赖特，奥巴马却没有他自己的考验。 The corporate media has made him bend his principles.公司媒体使他屈服，他的原则。
If Obama wins the Democratic nomination and if he wins the Presidency, which I continue to hope he does as the best candidate when compared with Clinton and McCain, we can expect to see more examples of Obama rejecting consistently progressive positions.如果奥巴马赢得民主党提名，如果他当选，我继续希望他作为最佳人选时相比，克林顿和麦凯恩，我们可以预期看到更多的例子，奥巴马拒绝一贯渐进的立场。 Hopefully, he will feel that it is incumbent that he follows through on much of his generally progressive campaign rhetoric and fights for generally progressive government policies.我希望，他会觉得这是责任，他如下通过对他的大部分普遍进步的运动，修辞学和打架普遍进步的政府政策。 But like Jeremiah Wright, we need to be prepared, no matter who is elected President, “November 5th, I’m [we’re] coming after you, because you’ll be representing a government whose policies grind under people.”但像耶利米赖特，我们需要做好准备，不管是谁当选总统， “ 11月5日，我[我们]未来后，您，因为您代表了政府的政策下，磨人” 。
Government of, by and for the people: that must be the objective.政府，为人民：必须客观。 We aren’t going to get it on November 4th, 2008, but if we don’t lose our critical consciousness, if we don’t defend indefensible positions, if we speak truth to power, whether Democrat or Republican, and if we keep working to find the ways to come together into a powerful, grassroots-based, multi-cultural independent progressive movement, we can make progress this year toward that long-term objective.我们并不是要得到关于2008年11月4日，但如果我们不要失去我们的批判意识，如果我们不辩护，是站不住脚的立场，如果我们讲的真相的权力，不论是民主党或共和党，如果我们继续努力寻找如何走到一起，成为一支强大的，基层为基础，多元文化独立的进步运动，我们能够取得进展，今年实现这一长远目标。
