I am not saying that he should be disqualified from the presidency because of that, but we can’t ignore that factor eithe

I will stand up and say that that DOES disqualify him - or anyone else of Muslim heritage - from holding the office of the presidency. Islam by it's self-declared nature is anathema to everything the democratic West embraces in philosophy and policy.

And I'm also disturbed that Obama spent a good share of his formative years living OUT of the United States. This contradicts the spirit - if not the letter - of the Constitutional requirement that a president be "native born". I believe the framers intent was that a person qualified to become president be born AND raised "as an American". In those times, the fact that you were born here almost guaranteed that you were raised here, as well.

That's my opinion, and I realize others' may be different.

I agree with you. Obama is running for the presidency. The trajectory of our nation is to establish and promote democracy and freedom through trade and by example. Freedom is the natural state of man according to our philosophy for over 200 years.

Obama's conduct in Kenya, as a Senator, in supporting his cousin, Odinga, to attempt to bring Kenya entire under Sharia Law shows that he does not believe freedom to be the natural state of man, but rather submission of freedom to Islam,and in its place the eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth, revenge ideology of a faith which hates democracy. This also means no presumption of innocence until proven guilty, no trial by jury, none of the constitutional protections set out in the Bill of Rights of our constitution.No stare decisis in law, no right to a speedy trial, no right to confront your accusers with evidence, no due process, the list goes on and on.

I'd say that disqualifies Obama as a candidate for the presidency, and also disqualifies him from his senate seat. He swore to uphold the constitution of the USA. In supporting Islamofascism, he has violated his oath of office, and should be summarily turfed out of his seat in the Senate.

Most people do not yet have a grasp of the facts that support this conclusion, and I have been repeatedly called racist for my views. It has nothing to do with Obama's race, but it has to do with his patriotism.

These facts are readily available to anyone who can spend a few minutes reading them:
