Why are people making a big fuss about the pictures of Barack Obama dressed in a traditional outfit?

Why must people be this way? Do you support Obama. If not say who you support and why! Thanks. Please don't be rude.

1. Because they think it goes with his many hidden agendas that he tries his hardest to minimize!
2. I support Obama, and the whole thing is ridiculous. Clinton's camp said that Hillary has done the same thing!
3. Hillary Clinton all the way!!!!!!!!
4. I support Obama all tha way, when he win he gonna buy me a rock the size of yo fist!
5. Simply because, they have nothing exciting going on with their lives so they have to make a big fuss of things that matter only little. Obama 08' !
6. Because it's playing on people's fears of what is generally considered "unAmerican". That is why Hillary's campaign is constantly spreading pictures like this and the "Pledge of Allegiance" (which, actually, was just a photo op and not the Pledge...but that didn't stop Hillary's team), and the rumors that Obama is a Muslim. If there is one thing the Clintons can do better than anyone else...it's playing on the fears of the masses. Personally, I support McCain now (since Ron Paul has no chance of winning with a mere 14 delegates). But if we have to get a Democrat in office, I'd much rather it be Obama than Hillary. Although a part of me would like to see Hillary get the DNC nomination...because that would guarantee McCain's win in November.
7. Trying to make closed minded people think he won't be main stream (and I'm not really opinionated about him either way, as I am generally republican)
8. Barack Obama is my 1st choice for President. On top of his amazing ability to bring people together, and a sharp mind and fantastic ability to make correct decisions the first time, here is a testament to his experience: During the first (8) eight years of Obama's elected service he sponsored over 820 bills. He introduced: 233 regarding health care reform, 125 on poverty and public assistance, 112 crime fighting bills, 97 economic bills, 60 human rights and anti-discrimination bills, 21 ethics reform bills, 6 veteran’s affairs and many others. His first year in the U.S. Senate, he authored 152 bills and co-sponsored another 427. These include: **the Coburn-Obama Government Transparency Act of 2006 (became law) **The Lugar-Obama Nuclear Non-proliferation and Conventional Weapons Threat Reduction Act(became law) **The Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act(passed the Senate) **The 2007 Government Ethics Bill(became law) **The Protection Against Excessive Executive Compensation Bill(In committee), and many more. Since entering the U.S. Senate, Senator Obama has written 890 bills and co-sponsored another 1096. An impressive record, for someone who supposedly has no experience. I'd say that's damn impressive for the Jr. Senator from Illinois.
9. With America being the most diverse and inclusive nation in the world, I find it truly despicable that people are still that narrow-minded to make an issue of that. I think it's an insult to the muslim Faith that America is overreacting for that
10. All the people who say he is muslim can jump on the picture and say, see!, see!
11. I no right! I support Obama for 3 reasons. 1. a fresh start. Clinton hs never made a change, she always had the power to do it with Bill behind her. so in my mind its like, how do we know if she will change anything? 2. His intelligence and how he worked his way up to Senate. He wasnt born in some rich family, ANd to me that expierence on it self. Since even though he doesnt know everything thats going on. He has that little expierence (with all the pain he went through living on the street) to make a change and how to. 3 Bill and Hillary Clinton is very corrupted. http://www.newmediajournal.us/staff/swirsky/03132006.htm Hope you vote for him too =]
12. Well, the Clinton campaign is playing politics by trying to make her rival look bad!
13. Anytime there is a real chance for a black man to become President in America every racist and their mother will come out and show their ugly faces. I support Obama because he knows exactly what America needs. Change, conservatives hate change especially when the traditional white male is not in charge.
14. People aren't Obama is.
15. I don't know
