· Obama was so impressed with his new minister's sermon (Jeremiah Wright) that he quoted it in his book "Dreams From My Father” as follows, "It is this world, a world where cruise ships throw away more food in a day than most residents of Port-au-Prince see in a year, where white folks' greed runs a world in need, apartheid in one hemisphere, apathy in another hemisphere."

Environmental Extremists
