Obama in Father's Day sermon reminds dads that parenting doesn't end at conception
By Jeff Long and Christi Parsons
In a Father's Day address heavy with personal and political meaning, Democrat Barack Obama told worshipers at a Chicago church Sunday that government must do more to help families---but he also exhorted parents, especially fathers, to play their part by raising healthy children. In a popular South Side church, Obama (D-Ill.) decried the shortage of police on the streets and money for schools, as well as a proliferation of guns in the wrong hands. But America needs more than jobs and opportunity in its communities, the presidential candidate told the hometown congregation.
