I volunteer at my local Democratic Headquarters. Democratic HQ is "neutral" with both Clinton and Obama supporters welcome and literature for both candidates displayed prominently. I field calls all day from people in our county looking for information. Fortunately we have offices set up now for both Clinton and Obama, so I can forward interested people to their staffs.

Every so often we still get calls that go like this: "Democratic Headquarters." "Hello, what is Barack Obama's middle name?" "Hussein." "Well, we're voting for Clinton then."

It is probably no coincidence that the most powerful AM radio station in our community is a conservative talk radio station. However, our city and our county in general are Democratic. This just goes to show how even Democratic voters can get caught up in silly horsesh*t like Obama's middle name. I recently wrote a post in a local online forum where I said, "Obama's middle name is Hussein. However, he is NOT a Muslim. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Muhammad Ali and Ahmad Rashad ARE Muslim. They, and Barack Obama, are not part of a Islamic cabal determined to destroy America. A name is just a name."

Despite all the talk he keeps us in the dark about some things. I read in interview with his sister that apparently their early childhood included learning from the Koran. I guess he converted to Christianity when he met his wife. Why is it so hard for him to tell us that. I've had enough secrecy for 8 years. ANNA

This is what Obama says about his mother's religious teachings to him. He says elsewhere that after he had been working in Chicago as a community organizer for a while he, as an adult, investigated Christianity and did become a Christian. He was never a Muslim although his upbringing and everything I have heard him say on religion indicates to me that he respects all major religions.

"For my mother, organized religion too often dressed up closed-mindedness in the garb of piety, cruelty and oppression in the cloak of righteousness.

This isn't to say that she provided me with no religious instruction. In her mind, a working knowledge of the world's great religions was a necessary part of any well-rounded education. In our household the Bible, the Koran, and the Bhagavad Gita sat on the shelf alongside books of Greek and Norse and African mythology. On Easter or Christmas Day my mother might drag me to church, just as she dragged me to the Buddhist temple, the chinese New Year celebration, the Shinto shrine, and ancient Hawaiian burial sites. But I was made to understand that such religious samplings required no sustained commitment on my part. Religion was an expression of human culture, she would explain, not its wellspring, just one of the many ways — and not necessarily the best way — that man attempted to control the unknowable and understand the deeper truths about our lives.

In sum, my mother viewed religion through the eyes of the anthropologist she would become; it was a phenomenon to be treated with a suitable respect, but with a suitable detachment as well.”

And these same people rant about his CHRISTIAN pastor's hate speech against whites. These rightwingers, their damned radio commentators and preachers are so over the top it's ridiculous.

That people buy this **** just shows how DUMBED DOWN the average American is at this point. We get the crummy government we deserve.

Barack is not supposed to be a Muslim, but then why, when they hear news about him maybe winning the American election, do all those Muslims jump up and down and dance like they did when the Twin Towers fell down on 9/11? Tell me why they do that, please?

It's already happening, just look around you. That movie is where we'll be in a few years if we don't change direction.

"It's got electrolytes! and that's what we crave."

I recommend everyone watch this movie, and don't take it lightly, it's your future.

Barack Obama is a Muslim then you show your own ignorance. He is a fine, thinking intelligent man. He is what's right for America. McCain and Clinton are not!

So many Americans are idiots. Not only are a certain number ignorant, thinking Obama is a Muslim, but a much higher percentage, I am sure, think that IF HE WERE a Muslim, then THAT ALONE would be reason not to vote for him, even if those bigoted Americans found nothing else about him to be objectionable.
Bigots = Big-idiots.

10% of Americans believe that the Illuminati are running the world from the Lost Continent of Atlantis.

Robert Kennedy said:

"One-fifth of the people are against everything all the time."

AND this one also from Robert Kennedy:

“What is objectionable, what is dangerous, about extremists is not that they are extreme, but that they are intolerant. The evil is not what they say about their cause, but what they say about their opponents.”

People believe what they want to believe; the truth be damned. What percentage of Americans believe th government dropped the twin towers with explosives?

That is what the Obama actions indicate.

By our actions we are known.

The books are a marketing tool. Every presidential candidate who plans a four year campaign begins with a book or two to launch the publicity and gain name recognition.

Obama is no different, except that he has benefited from the experts in the psychology of voting, as did Karl (Roverer)Rove. One begins by writing what will be the foundation of the nice guy image, listening to the political winds and figuring out that the illusion of Change is what the masses will buy the next Leap Year.

"You've got to be trusted by the people whom you lie to . . ." Roger Waters, "dogs"

The source of Obama's money reveals his true "creed." The insurance industry, the chemical industry, and the death industry all back Obama.

He has no creed except power and money, and this truth seems beyond the grasp of many intelligent folks who consider themselves "progressive."

These are the words of Thomas A. Nagy

So, if 10% of Americans think he is Muslim because of his middle name Hussein...

...and around 30% of Americans still think Saddam Hussein planned 9/11...

...do you think that 5% of Americans can be persuaded to believe that Barack Hussein Obama planned 9/11?

It isn't in the Constitution, but the right for America to think (or not to think) anything (even that Bush is doing a GOOD JOB) is guaranteed.
