If people haven’t learned by now that Obama isn’t a Muslim, they never will. There’s enough suspicion to go around. I personally don’t think he is, but on every occasion Obama has just set himself up for it, never offering something resolute that really will convince people he isn’t a Muslim. It started with his pastor and the Hillary campaign’s photo of Obama in a turban. Most people have heard he went to a Muslim school. Now Obama says people will get the wrong idea (from a left-wing magazine that not many read).
Not to call out Obama or call him any names, but who gets upset about stupid cartoons? Oh, that’s right, Muslims all across the world.
He isn’t helping his case by getting upset about it.

It doesn’t matter if he’s a Muslim; just as Mitt’s Mormonism shouldn’t be an issue. It’s policies that matter, though we all know people will vote on preceptions. His greatest fear is that this type of stuff will negate the ‘white guilt entitlement’ vote, which he is frankly counting on.
The New Yorker cartoon shows he is truly the first ‘post-racial’ candidate and, as such, will have to put up with the same crap as every other politician. Also, as a ‘post-racial’ candidate, he will have to stand on his accomplishments (if he can find enough) and his words. Considering the dearth of one and the massive inconsistencies of the other, good luck with that.
Anyone who listens to Hannity should know he belongs to the church of angry black haters and is not a muslim.
