Public Comments
- His middle name is Hussien.. and he is muslim... even though he tries to deny it
- His middle name is Hussein .
- 1) I have not heard it 2) Born in Kansas, raised around the world, including Indonesia and Hawaii 3) Kansas and Africa 4) Christian
- His middle name is Hussein, after his father. His mother is American and his father is Kenyan. He was born in the US and lived in the Philippines for a while where he attended school. He is Christian.
- What a loaded question! That's like asking if Hillary's husband ever cheated on her, or if Rudy's ever been married before.
- Go to Snopes.com and enter 'Obama Muslim' in the search box, then click on the "Who is Barack Obama" link. The answer to all your questions is at the bottom of the page, below the claims that are being debunked.
- Yes, Hussein, born and raised in Hawaii, I believe, parents from Kenya and Kansas, religion- christian.
- Since you are "just born" on the site, I'll give you a pass on the question. Please check when you are asking a question for how many times it has been asked before you.
- His middle name is Willard. He was born and raised in Tierra del Fuego, though his family vacationed in the Ozarks every year. His mother was a hamster, and his father smelt of elderberries. He is an old-order Mennonite.
- all of this info can be found on his website. Middle name: Hussein Born: Hawaii Raised: not sure, but he did live overseas Parents: not sure...dad was atheist, raised Muslim Religion: he is Christian (not that religion matters...)
- His middle name is Hussein..........and he's half black / half muslim..........not sure which parent is what.
- Hussein. And apparently that is a huge problem for some narrow minded Americans. I'm a Clinton supporter, but luckily I'm not a hater. If your middle name is Britney, are you a crazy, drug addicted pop star? Stratus, his mother is white and his father is black. I'm not saying you care in particular, but I don't know why that matters to people. Why does his father's religion matter? Islam isn't a religion based on terrorism. Al Qaeda is. His father is not a member of Al Qaeda.
- what does that matter? if this is how you pick a candidate, then we don't need the debates... just put up a general biography and family history, and vote according to that. Pay no attention to the details or their platform.. only family history. Great idea

- Barack Obama is a member of Chicago's Trinity United Church of Christ. Its minister, and Obama's spiritual adviser, is the Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr. In 1982, the church launched Trumpet Newsmagazine; Wright's daughters serve as publisher and executive editor. Every year, the magazine makes awards in various categories. Last year, it gave the Dr. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr. Trumpeter Award to a man it said "truly epitomized greatness." That man is Louis Farrakhan. Maybe for Wright and some others, Farrakhan "epitomized greatness." For most Americans, though, Farrakhan epitomizes racism, particularly in the form of anti-Semitism. Over the years, he has compiled an awesome record of offensive statements, even denigrating the Holocaust by falsely attributing it to Jewish cooperation with Hitler -- "They helped him get the Third Reich on the road." His history is a rancid stew of lies. Obama’s attendance at a madrasa, and his connection with a Black separatist minister, take on added seriousness in light of his recent visit to Al Sharpton’s racist and anti-Semitic hate group. A madrasa is a strict / rigid islamic religious academy, for those of you who are unfamiliar with the term.

- Barack HUSSEIN Obama was born in Hawaii on August 4th, 1961. His father, Barack Obama Sr., was born and raised in a small village in Kenya, where he grew up herding goats with his own father, who was a domestic servant to the British. Barack's mother, Ann Dunham, grew up in small-town Kansas. Her father worked on oil rigs during the Depression, and then signed up for World War II after Pearl Harbor, where he marched across Europe in Patton's army. Her mother went to work on a bomber assembly line, and after the war, they studied on the G.I. Bill, bought a house through the Federal Housing Program, and moved west to Hawaii. Barack's parents met at the University of Hawaii. Barack's father returned to Kenya, and Barack grew up with his mother in Hawaii, and for a few years in Indonesia.

- This question makes me wonder... What's scarier? The possibility that these same questions were asked in 2000, and again in 2004? Or the fact these questions are still being asked in 2008? Let's grow up America!
