In reply to the discussion: 15 percent of Democrats believe Obama is a Muslim [View all]MADem
(135,425 posts)Thinking that someone is Muslim is perceived as "bad" by some--but not by all. In America, the headline is
"WAAAAAAAH---15 Percent of--gasp--DEMOCRATS!!!!--- Think Obama is a MOOOOOOOOOS-LEMMMMM!!! Oh, the HUGE MANATEE!!!"
In the Islamic world, the headline is thus:
"Only 15 percent of American Democrats acknowledge Obama is a Muslim in surprising survey results."
Many Muslims do believe that if your father was Muslim, you are, too. It's like being Jewish, only with a different line of determination.
I think POTUS is what he says he is, and beyond that, I really don't care.
It wouldn't disturb me in the slightest if he left office after the next inauguration and headed straight for the masjid, though--in fact, I'd laugh like hell.
