Like I said in other posts, Obama, when he wanted to go into politics, should have changed his name to his mother’s more “American sounding” name DUNHAM. People tend to be weary of non European sounding names in the voting booth. It is wrong, but it is something people do subconsciously. Nobody would be bothering a Barry Dunham about his Muslim past.
I get your point, but in this day and age, no stone is left unturned.
