If only it can be substantiated that he did in fact spend his early years as a Muslim,that would blow him right out of contention. If only...
I don't know - he wasn't in control of his upbringing, his (various, kooky) parents were.
Now, if the same situation were to be found out about, say, Thomas Sowell, I don't think any of us here would care one whit. That's because Thomas Sowell is one insightful, righteous dude, and has been for his entire adult life.
And if you accept that, then you see that the whole problem with Barry Hussien Obama is his activity and associations in his adult life, not what his parents enrolled him in for few years of childhood. Can or does the one affect the other? Sure! But the key thing is adult history.
(And besides, we want Barry's time bombs to go off after he puts Hillary! away....)
“..that would blow him right out of contention.”
Why do you say that? With all this promotion of national diversity one can only expect that sooner or later America will have a non-Christian, or perhaps even an anti-Christian, occupy the WH. It is questionable that it will be the Muslim BO in 2009, but it is only a matter of time for it to happen in the future.
