Public Comments

1. Ive heard his father was one, but i dont know that for a fact its just what ive heard
2. 1% too many Unfortunately I have spoken to people who believe he is a Muslim.
3. His father was, not him though. He still isn't qualified to be president though.
4. The lunatic fringe percentage.
5. I know people who question it.. he registered as a muslim when he was attending school ..at least I read that.. but people change at least on the outside...
6. apparently there are a lot of idots out there who will believe any malicious rumor out there. They are so dmb that that they can't even tell that they are being manipulated.
7. not sure. but hes not and even if he was it wouldnt matter, we have a seperation of church and state that everyone must repsect
8. about the same number as the % of mentally retarded Americans
9. Answer: The same percentage that is ignorant.
10. Whoever still thinks he's muslim is an idiot - My ignorant father-in-law believes this. I'm not an Obama supporter but he's addressed this many times - he is Christian.
11. I know that his father was a Muslim and in the eyes of many Muslim he's an apostate under a death penalty for converting to Christianity.
12. Even if he was, I don't think it should be an issue. Muslims are people too.
13. only the stupid, ignorant, idiotic, racist bigots. next...
14. Good question. If they believe rediculous things like all their guns are going to be taken away, giving rich people tax breaks helps middle class families, and Ronald Reagan ended the Cold War, I guess it's not too much of a stretch for them to think that somebody with the middle name of Hussein is a muslim and consequently a terrorist.
15. Send out a questionnaire with a self-stamped return envelop to each person in the US. Add them up and divide - - there's your answer .
16. About 10% I think. As a general rule 90% of voters do not bother to learn the facts.
17. The stupid ones
18. Dont know if he is one or not...but if he is, how would that effect his ability to do his job?
19. Well his background is muslim and he goes to a racist so-called "Christian" church.
20. obamas father was an African Muslim. supposedly obama was raised in a christian church but Ive never heard any mention of what church he actually went to other than rev wrights church. so this is possibly why the question still remains about his religious upbringing. My only question is why change your name from berry to barrack Hussein if you didn't want to portrait a Muslim. As you know and all America knows living in that country you pray with them. so i think he was being raised as a Muslim but after he came to America he didn't support a religion till he found rev wright.
21. He is a converted Christian. He has Muslim heritage and attended Muslim school for 2 years and was called Barry. The thing that bothers me is that Islam believes once a muslin always a Muslim- no way out and the consequence for leaving Islam is death. So Islam considers him a Muslim or if he converted to a christian his punishment death. he has attended his church that has the leader that said instead of singing "GOD BLESS AMERICA" we should should sing well I don't want to repeat it XXX DAMN XXXXXXX. Wtf???
22. he is Cristian get right! his old man is Muslim and i personaly think it should be Obama and then Clinton as the pres and vice pres
23. I can't say I believe 100% that he is Muslim. All I know is that his stepDad was/is, and that he attended a Muslim school for 4 years. I think he's been exposed to it plenty, and I think that he probably associates with his share of Muslim people. I'm sure he certainly has the potential and the connections to do many things Hillary or McCain might not have. That's the big issue.
24. He is not a muslim, there are a few people that are ignorant,stupid,uneducated and all these things and don't want to know the truth. trust me he did'nt get to the senate being dumb,uneducated,unrespectable,and all of that. we are all born of some other race /religion.our parents named us what they want us to be called .We can't pick our family .so there you have it .I don't know what ese to say about some people
25. Probably a lot of people who listen to talk radio think he was at least influenced by his "Muslim" background, but few of them would vote for him anyway. I know some democrats who are worried that he will not be a Strong supporter of Israel or tough on terrorist because of it
26. Pretty small percentage...but I'm fairly certain that most of the people who spread this rumor don't really believe it, they're just planting the seed, so to speak. Good thing is, though, that people who believe this kind of thing are probably so damn ignorant and lazy that they don't bother to vote anyways, so it shouldn't really affect his chances at all. BTW, Hillary Clinton loves to propagate this rumor..."There's no evidence he's a Muslim...as far as I know." What a witch.
27. ooooohohoohohohhoooh gimme an orgasm!!!!
