President Obama rose to the occasion once again in today’s eulogy for the pastor of Emanuel AME in Charleston South Carolina, Rev. Clementa Pinckney, calling Pinckney a “good man,” who was “full of empathy and fellow feeling.”
“We are here today to a remember a man of God who lived by faith, a man who believed in things not seen, a man who believed there were better days ahead off in the distance,” said the president, holding back no emotion, in beginning the eulogy for the service at the TD Arena in Charleston, S.C. “He believed his efforts would deliver a better life for those who followed.”
And then, the President of the United States broke into a rendition of “Amazing Grace!” Simply amazing!
