Do you think the Muslims will like Obama and his speech?

Now, President Barack Obama is set to attempt a makeover. He will appear at a different Cairo university on Thursday to deliver a speech to the entire Muslim world. Not unlike Condi Rice, Obama is expected to offer an idealistic vision of the future, proclaiming a common purpose as allies who can celebrate their differences and embrace their similarities. But Obama's team hopes to succeed where Rice failed, in changing the deteriorating dynamic between the U.S. and the Muslim world. (See pictures of Islam's soft revolution.) In appealing to the Muslim world, Obama starts with an advantage over Rice: his biography, which ranges from his international family, which included Muslim members, to his opposition to the Iraq War. As early as April 2007, candidate Obama had ventured that his unique story "allows me to say things to them that other Presidents might not be able to say."

1. Only if he speaks in Arabic and reminds them he has a Muslim father.
2. sounds like the stage is set for him to be his usual brilliant self, such a refreshing change
3. Why not they probably wrote the thing!
4. Well, he is one of them.
5. Wow! all the Fat, White Russians in Israel are soooooo disappointed that the President of the United States of America is making a speech to Arabs?
6. Not really. They, along with the Chinese, think he's weak.
7. Lets hope so, getting the moderates Muslims on our side helps quell extremism in those countries. Alienating the moderates only creates more extremists.
8. Probably not...you can't become friends with people who don't have any interest in compromise. All you have to do is look at the Republicans on Yahoo Answers to figure that out.
9. It will make no difference. It's political pandering of the worst kind. Obama is going to make a speech that puts down the USA. The media is going to tell you mind numbed robots that the world love him and now loves us in return. And nothing will have changed, except our enemies will think we are even bigger fools.
10. sure as long as he throws lots of ands mmm nnn aww but add an accent on each syllable,
11. If they do good, if they don't sucks to be them they will feel like republicans...
12. Yes. I like the first answer.
13. Muslims have no desire to co-exist with Jews and non Muslim societies. Their end game is a world that is 100% Muslim. Whatever BO says will not sway the Muslim world unless he tells them that he will force all Americans to become Muslims.
14. i am really worried about Israeli saboteurs .they can surely sabotage the whole process.they have players in different powerful positions in American administration.let's wait and see..
