....Despite Obama's public professions on religion and spirituality, many Americans continue to doubt the president's faith.
Nearly one in five Americans incorrectly believes that Obama is a Muslim, according to a poll by the nonpartisan Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life released late last year.

The ONLY person I can imagine this marxist/muzzie/narcissist/nihilist/race-baiting SOB praying to his HIMSELF.
Like Caligula, this Maximum Kenyan Buffoon literally sees himself as a god.
To: Cincinatus' Wife

Ha ha!!! Thanks for the laugh.

He's praying he makes it to the end of his term without going to prison and that he leaves the place a disfunctional third world cesspool, which will make him a hero in the middle east and parts of asia.
