“Taqiyya”
The word “Taqiyya” literally means: “Concealing, precaution, guarding.” It is employed in disguising one’s beliefs, intentions, convictions, ideas, feelings, opinions or strategies.
Falsehoods told to protect oneself, or to promote the cause of Islam are sanctioned in the Qur’an and Sunna, including lying under oath in testimony before a court, deceiving by making distorted statements to the media. A Muslim is even permitted to deny or denounce his faith if, in so doing, he protects or furthers the interests of Islam, so long as he remains faithful to Islam in his heart.

Does the Constitution say that Muslims can’t be elected President?
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;...”
Yes, but you must have the ultra-super-secret decoder ring to find out where in the Constitution. I could tell you how to obtain such a ring, but then I'd have to kill you. I'll give you a hint. It has nothing to do with Velveeta.

I was not a Muslim, not raised by a Muslim. And in my town and among my associates I have a solid and earned reputation for honesty.
Obama was a Muslim as a child, his school’s enrollment ledger notes that he was. Obama was raised by a Muslim, that being his adopted Dad, Lolo Soetoro. There in Indonesia, Obama was a Muslim in a Muslim country. Obama’s purported birth Dad, Barack Sr. was a Muslim from a Muslim family — although he claimed to have fallen away from that religion and become a Marxist. Obama has admitted his love for the sound of Muslim prayer, and has engaged in Muslim outreach more than any of the Presidents before him, including asking NASA to add Muslim outreach to its mission. Obama’s sister Maya and his Kenyan relations are all Muslim.
Is Obama Muslim? There’s plenty of real indicators that he is or may be.
Further, Obama’s life and career are full of deceptions and lies, each to achieve a political goal or career goal. This goes far beyond the level of inflated facts in a resume. It goes far beyond the level of deception and lies engaged in by most politicians — although there are too many politicians, well-known, at a same or worse level (e.g. Bill Clinton).
Thus even if Obama is, by his own true volition, not longer a Muslim, he applies Taqiyya-like deceptions politically all the time, and would, as raised a Muslim by family and pervasive culture in his youth, and by at least intellectual studies in adulthood, be familiar with and appreciate the practice. Obviously so, because he employs Taqiyya in all but name, throughout the daily practice of his political career.
