If Senator Barack Obama is Muslim, will relations between the U.S. and other Muslim countries improve?
Thanks for the answers, I didn't know if he was or wasn't Muslim, hence the word "IF". Next, I only asked one question, the first question mark is added automatically. Also, I'm not an idiot, and neither is anyone who answered my question because it's an OPINION question. Last, I apologize if the answer didn't make sense, I didn't notice I was missing a few words. I wanted opinions on whether Obama maybe being Muslim and he's elected President U.S. relations with Muslim countries improve? Wow!!! I feel like a criminal, since when is it wrong to ask an opinion question? I'm old enough to vote, I don't think it's wrong to not know his religious preference because don't we live in a country that separates church and state, therefore religion shouldn't play a part on the candidates' campaign? There was someone that said if he is Muslim, he wouldn't have made a decision to run, and that makes sense. Thanks again for answering, and some of you need to not take questions like this so personally. It was a simple question and there is no need to attack my person or my intelligence.

- He's not.
- Yes
- Some people will try to tell you he is not a muslim - they are lying. But, how do we know he isn't part of an al-quieda sleeper cell? That's all we need to have our own nukes turned on us!
- Probably. But not with Muslim radical groups.
- for sure, as he intends to sit with terrorisst and dictators for drinks
- yeah probably
- If mickey mouse is gay would he want to move to san francisco? Both questions makes make no sense. Edit, Wow Ive never been surrounded by so many idiots.
- No. - Look at the relations between the Saudi royal family and the indigenous islamic extremists. - Look at the relations between the islamic extremists and President Musharaff in Pakistan. - Look at the relations between the islamic extremists and the fledgeling Iraqi government. Islamic extremists aren't shy about killing their own, that's for sure. So a Muslim POTUS would not make any tangible difference in relations whatsoever, IMHO of course. I assume this was a hypothetical question though, because he's not Muslim so it doesn't really matter.
- For the millionth time, HE'S NOT A MUSLIM!
- no....... America is a christian nation. We'd have to give that up then turn our backs on Israel and move out of all middle east issues and then guess what ? They'd attack anyway
- No and NO Muslims in America, are "muslim enough" for the extremists have you paid any attention to iraq? Shiite vs Sunni muslims is the main problem....
- Why take the chance?? Don't vote for him!!! You can never know for sure!!! Too late after the fact!!! Better safe than sorry!!!
- B. Hussein Obama is not Muslim, Jewish Democrats would never allow it.
- No. This is absolutely rediculous. I hear people, mostly Democrats say this very thing, but what about this "Separation of Church and State" that these same liberals are always screaming about???????? The president's particular religious beliefs should have NO bearing watsoever on foreign relations. The United States, whom he is emoployed by, is an overwhelmingly Christan country. The problems we have with these countries are not about religion in the first place. It's about money, oil, and politics. The only people we are having trouble over religion with is the Islamic Fundamentalists (terrorists). And if you are hoping to solve those problems, Obama IS NOT the solution. He has already demonstrated his weakness toward holding our enemies accountable. Furthermore, he has demonstrated acts of treason in his words toward the United States and the brave soldiers who protects our citizens from these evil people.
- He is not Muslim. Obama is a Christian for many decades, but the relations with all countries will improve with his presidency.
- We the sheeple. It is amazing how the right wing noise machine gets this stuff into the American conscience. Repeat a lie often enough, and people start to believe it. Obama is not a Muslim, has never been a Muslim and no one besides right wing smear merchants have ever claimed that he is a Muslim. They can't beat him in the arena of ideas, so they lie about him to try to scare stupid people into voting against their own self interests.
- This does not even arise. He would never have dared to come out if he were a Muslim, for if he were, the mere conception of that idea would have ensured his abode six feet below by now.
- He is and no they wont. We will war with them just like they do to each other. The only thing that will change is that we will now have to worship a false god "Muhamad" and our women will be forced to wear burkas. Lets hope that he does not get elected.
- He is not, has said he is not thereby making the point of your entire question moot.
- He's always been a christian. I pray that you're not old enough to vote.
