Obama's ties to Farrakhan

Obama has denounced AND rejected Farrakhan.

His minister isn't running for President.

I am glad this was brought up. What does it mean to say you denounce and /or reject something or someone.

I was watching the debate when he said it and for me I thought it was yet another free and easy claim to make by Obama. How difficult is it to say you denounce something? What actions has Obama done to show he denounces Farrakhan?

I don't want to see him denounce it for the sake of his campaign, I want to see him boldly stand up and specifically state the beliefs of Farrakhan he opposes with the same energy and compassion he uses to speak of change and hope.

He did not have that same energy and compassion when he said he rejected Farrakhan and he did not expand on it. How much money has he accepted from Farrakhan and his followers?
