African-American pastors take pride in Obama's win
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
As the presidential campaign trail wound Sunday through New Hampshire, here in metro Atlanta, Democratic hopeful Barack Obama garnered praise and prayers from several African-American pulpits for his landmark victory in the Iowa caucuses.
Some preachers suggested the Illinois senator's success last week in beating one-time front-runner Hillary Clinton and 2004 vice presidential nominee John Edwards in a predominantly white, Midwestern state represents a happy and historic day in the nation's racial and political history.
