There should be another option " Could not care less".
I am not quite sure what his religion has to do with his aptitude . As long as he is tolerant of other religions ( or those who like myself are avowed Atheists) and not an extremist I really could not care less.
His kids go to a Quaker School , he goes to Church so I would assume he is a Christian at least nominally like the vast majority of Christians who claim Christianity as their own. What he believes in is his own business and I simply do not understand this obsession Americans have with the religious belief of their politicians. Faith should be an introspective thing, something between, him and his conscience and his God ( or lack or therein). He certainly shows no signs of being a Muslim.
I have many Muslim friends and not one of them would "hide" his religion. They are proud of it and would find it shameful to deny their religious affiliation.
Exactly what are the so called "signs" that Obama is a Muslim ? Not half baked paranoid conspiracy theories but facts and proof ? Grow up people and do not believe everything you think. it's dangerous and ill conceived.
Why is it that Americans need all this religious reassurance that their leaders are not only religious but Christians ? I thought America was about freedom of and from religion. I do not see why one has to declare himself Christian to be electable nor why one has to wave one's patriotism in everyone's face at all times simply to be valued as a member of the political classes.
Who bloody cares what Obama believes in as long as he is not an extremist and fundamentalist ? As a member of the public I am more interested in economic policies, stances on education, health and employment, international policies, diplomatic skills, intelligence, integrity and the ability of my leader to be a good upstanding leader of my country.
Christians do worship the same God as the Muslims and the Jews. All three are Abrahamic religions and as such should find a commonality. Islam is not the enemy. Extremists and fundamentalist Islamists are. There is a huge difference and assigning simplistic labels is not terribly helpful and intellectually disingenuous at best.
Hillary Clinton herself brought up his Muslim background during the campaign. She's far from conservative. Leftists believe it also.
yeah during primaries people say the dumbest stuff during primaries where they are running against their party member, but it didnt work lol
and she's in his admin now so that worked out well
