Two reasons why Jeremiah Wright is not a prophet.
1. Prophets say things that are true, but Pastor Wright says things that are not true. The US government did not create AIDs, did not give syphilis to African-Americans, did not introduce drugs to the African-American community, etc.
2. Prophets emphasize personal responsibility, but Pastor Wright teaches African-Americans that the responsibility for their problems lies with everyone but themselves.
Bill Cosby would be a much better example of a prophet to the African-American community than Pastor Wright.

Great points. And, yes, I agree, Bill Cosby would be a much more likely candidate for that office.
