I'm conducting a personal survey among Freepers.
Suppose I were to ask each of you a question that goes like this?
"What book or source do you suppose President Obama consults when he is looking for inspiration or guidance" What would your answer be? I'm looking for just a short answer.
That is as unsurprising as the well-reported statistic that most Americans cannot "correctly" identify Obama's religion as Christian. Nothing Obama has done in his entire life would lead anyone to believe he might believe in Jesus as anything other than his opposition.
I don’t think it is “most” but I’d be willing to stipulate that is “a lot.”

Gallup thinks it is most: “Just 34% of Americans correctly say U.S. President Barack Obama is a Christian, while 44% say they don’t know Obama’s religion and 11% say he is a Muslim.”
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Looking forward to seeing their responses to your question, that is if you give us a report.
I got my control group answer in under an hour - I initially thought a couple of hours but it became patently obvious after a short while. NOT ONE ANSWER CONTAINED the words “The Bible.” It speaks VOLUMES.
Au Contraire, my fellow Freeper.......mine did. But, I listed “the satanic bible”, by Anton Levey. What Bible were you thinking about?
You stole my answer. ;)
That’s the one I thought of first- Then I remembered Mein Kampf.-
In Mein Kampf, Hitler used the main thesis of “the Jewish peril”, which posits a Jewish conspiracy to gain world leadership.[6] The narrative describes the process by which he became increasingly antisemitic and militaristic, especially during his years in Vienna. He speaks of not having met a Jew until he arrived in Vienna, and that at first his attitude was liberal and tolerant. When he first encountered the anti-semitic press, he says, he dismissed it as unworthy of serious consideration. Later he accepted the same anti-semitic views, which became crucial in his program of national reconstruction of Germany.
Mein Kampf has also been studied as a work on political theory. For example, Hitler announces his hatred of what he believed to be the world’s two evils: Communism and Judaism. The new territory that Germany needed to obtain would properly nurture the “historic destiny” of the German people; this goal, which Hitler referred to as Lebensraum (living space), explains why Hitler aggressively expanded Germany eastward, specifically the invasions of Czechoslovakia and Poland, before he launched his attack against Russia. In Mein Kampf Hitler openly states that the future of Germany “has to lie in the acquisition of land in the East at the expense of Russia.”[7]
Change the word above “communism” to “Christianity”, and shazam, you got Baghdad Barry.

Whatever he consults - it won’t be the Bible.
