WRT Obama being a Muslim; he is not a Muslim and everyone knows that. He does empathise with Muslims and his adversaries use that to suggest some sort of allegiance with radicals. They do it by calling him a Muslim, which gets a rise out of like minded folk. His entrance into public life was flavored with anti-establisment and anti-mainstream influences, so it shouldn't be a big surprise that people question his loyalties. We now know he was born in Hawaii, but lots of people on both sides played that issue. Dems who were afraid his Cert might be a fake wanted everyone to stop talking about it and even suggested it doesn't matter after the election. While Repubs who thought it was fake insisted it matters and demanded something be done about it. Other presidents have been empathetic to Muslims and have not be so disparaged. Other presidents have not been hounded about their heritage. Obama's associations with radical types early on have made him more suspect. It is up to him to clear the air, but some of the personal attacks are over the edge which make that hard to near impossible for him.

What a bunch of hogwash. Do you really believe the crap you spew? Just for the record, I am a Dem and never once doubted Obama was American.....and none of my friends did either. Only you questionable people had doubts. Now get lost before I put you on ignore.
