Emanuel Cleaver is an African American pastor, the Chairman of the Congressional Black Caucus and the Democratic Congressman that represents a large chunk of Kansas City. He's never been particularly fond of Barack Obama (I don't think he ever bought the hype: he endorsed Hilary Clinton in the 2007 Democratic presidential primaries), and in my dealings with him, he's never been timid about expressing his disappointment in the President.
The idea that he's ever been particularly beholden to Barack Obama is pretty far-fetched to anyone that's ever covered him.
