We come back to ideology because the problem with Barack Obama is precisely his ideology. All the stuff about his being a perfect father etc. is irrelevent because it avoids the point about what he believes about this country and its founding principles. It has nothing to do with his skin color or his "ethnicity", which is the term Matthews sneakily uses to smear Obama's opponents as racists.

Hell, Hitler loved animals. Atilla the Hun loved his children. Castro loved baseball. The NORKO lunatic loved cartoon characters. To paraphrase Hillary Clinton: “So what?”
