A point he made just does not sit right with me:
He made a comparison between his pastor and his grandmother. He made a connection where I can not see one.

Both came up during the same time period in diiferent areas and that is what shaped them to who they are today.

I will be listening to the speech again for more clarity but that is what I gathered.
