Young Barack Obama, trying to build a political base on Chicago's South Side, chooses Father Michael Pfleger https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Pfleger rather than Jeremiah Wright as his spiritual advisor.
Would a Catholic Obama make a difference? I suppose there will be a movement among some conservative Catholics to deny him communion over being pro-choice on abortion but I doubt it will have much effect on voters. One difference I can think of: will he still want a Catholic running mate (Biden) in 2008?
