i certainly agree with the article.
but, Obama is a bad example.
in Occidental, he was in a drug haze.
and he only had 2 semesters (according to records).
...as for the Islam, i agree.
Obama couldn’t even remember the correct year in England, even AFTER he asked for the correct DAY.
clearly, he doesn’t have a world class memory.
Yet in front of a Times reporter, he recited the Muslim call to prayer, as reported, flawlessly with perfect accent.
FOURTY YEARS after he was in the Indonesian school he was registered as a Muslim student at.
...i think it is impossible for him to remember it flawlessly after 40 years, without refreshers...
and, that call to prayer includes the Muslim “profession of faith”. “There is no god but Allah, and Mohammad is his messenger”.
...what TRUE Christian, would proudly recite that ?
and who could remember it perfectly after 40 years without practice ?
excuse me,
and he only had 2 semesters (according to records),
at COLUMBIA. fall 82 and spring 83.
(in 1981 he was in Pakistan... with the son of a future leading Muslim politician.)
Most anybody.
I can still remember some of the satire from 60's MAD Magazine word for word and I only read it.
I can still recite most parts of the Catholic mass - In Latin. And, THAT has been WAAAY more than 40 years for me. Religion stuffs it’s doctrines and rituals DEEP inside the young brain so they NEVER leave....
