All you have to do is read some of the posts in this thread in order to understand why Obama's church exists in the first place.

So that's why we've invested so much American blood and hundreds of billions of $$$$$, to bring democracy to an Islamic country?

I guess it really is time for a change, the more I hear from Obama's detractors the more I like him

Iowa a state in the middle of America has hundreds of thousands of muslims , it is the first state to have built a mosque in 1920s . Many muslims reside there.

Since arriving in Iowa in 2004 former Boca Raton Imam Ibrahim Dremali has opened an Islamic New Horizons School with the funding from the Wahhabist Islamic Society of North America and is taching an Islam 101 corse at DUKE UNIV. .Ibrahim has broadcasted his proclivity for martydom on Iowa television , when ask about the Danish Cartoons during an interview the cleric replied: " Prophet Mohammed ,praise be unto him , to us , he's he's more valuable than even our own lives , own kids , God is No.1 and then Mohammed. When they attack him, they attack-- 1.9 billion muslims, " Dremali said .

... Have you ever actually... been to Iowa?

Also, based on the way the caucuses work on the Democratic side, it'd be tough for a group to single-handedly hijack the process.... which is what it seems like you're somehow suggesting.

Actually, I don't know WHAT you're suggesting.

Nobody denied slavery is wrong ! But where is the outcry about the original slave owners ' who happen to be black slave masters from Africa ' ?

How many whites died defeating slavery ? Which race abolished slavery " white"? Which race through welfare helped to take care of mllions of abandoned by their fathers black children ? Which race set up special programs to help the advancement of blacks ,
, " whites' . What has the 'MOTHERLAND ' did to help blacks ? Most blacks in Africa who live in luxuray are your black dictators and robbers of their people . The ones the radical muslims are raping beheading and burning alive that is .

Which nation and race still owns slaves [ if you said parts of Africa with black slave masers , your right } ?

I am from a long line of freedom fighters and beleive in equal rights for all no favoritism .

So you see it's not a racial thing . Its a people thing, and cultural thing .

Strange god? There are more than 5,000 names for God in recorded history. Which ones are strange? Any that don't conform to your personal point of view?

It's for time those who would argue "my God is better than your God" to wake up. That argument has been the cause of more needless death and destruction throughout history than any other.

Thats because your not a woman , especially a black woman who will be put back in the very bondage you pretend to hate .

You don't see many black women joining islam, they don't want the burkas, and hoods and subjection . They had enough of the ' hoods ' with the other klansmen .



Although I do agree women should put their clothes back on, but not hide in them .

You said " democracy with islam is a bad word "

I questioned how does it then make sense that we've invested huge amounts of blood and $$$ to bring democracy to an Islamic country?

I'm cluless why you're now bringing up black women, klansmen, and women putting their clothes back on in that context.

Johnny Reid "John" Edwards--This is John Edwards complete name. You can get both names from the Wikipedia. There is a lot of other information on the internet that some of you need to be researching. You might just learn why some of us will n-e-v-e-r vote for Obama.

Just because some of us don't share your trepidation doesn't mean we haven't done our research. I live in Chicago, so I have been familar with Obama for some time. I've yet to see any scary story (that's rooted in reality and not paranoia) that has made me shy away from him. He isn't my favorite candidate, but I think he's pretty solid.
