No, Obama is not a muslim, despite the hilarious raggings of Steven Colbert.

Why would it scare you even if Obama followed the Islam faith?

Please note: the religion is called Islam. Muslims are people of a certain ethnicity who generally follow Islam. It may be highly offensive if you don't use this term correctly.

Yeah, what does it matter if he follows Islam? There's a big difference between your average Muslim and the terrorist radicals. My dad said he knew some Muslims once and they were some of the nicest people he'd ever met.

Yes there is evidence that his father was a muslim extremist...
But frankly i like Obama more than i do Hilary...
And even though he is a muslim and his father was a muslim extremist...
I dont think that he is an extremist...
He strikes me as a good man.

I can speak for myself that who your parents are does not necessarily negate who you are.

I agree wish Asherlee on this one, just because your parents are one thing doesnt mean you have to that, like a religion or job forsay.

Dude, there are people who follow the Islam faith that, I know it's hard to believe, are not terrorists! Is that amazing or what? Also, Obama is a christian, and has always been one. And no, Serb, his father was not an extremest. Also, Islam is the second largest religeon in the world, so don't be mean to them.

Most people on the radio and tv say that? You should listen to other things, then. Obama was essentially forced to affirm his Christianity in a speech a few months ago and attacked the Clinton campaign for spreading the rumors.
I think it's really awful that such stereotypes are associated with certain groups of people. I know I will never get to see an atheist president, although religious background shouldn't really have anything to do with politics - but it clearly does.

Ashereelee or what ever your name is...
How dosent it matter who your parents are?
I mean they rase you and they teach you their ideology etc.
Ofcourse it matters...
Some kids exept it others do just the oposite...
Me...
I respect my parents and what ever they tell me...
Exept studying,thats a taboo topic in my home

Well, while we're on the topic of parenthood, different cultures have different ideologies when it comes to the aims and practices of raising kids.

Some aim specifically for their children to be independently functioning units. Others aim specifically for children to grow into a role. Individual parents inside these cultures operate in variance with these parameters, too.

Asherlee's wording was still correct though- a key word is "necessarily", and an important phrase was "speak for myself". Whether you view yourself as your own person relates to your own development.

whats the big deal even if he was i mean out of the three people trying to be president i beilive he will do the best job. Never trust t.v. or the radio all they want is ratings so they will say what it takes to get them. Like i was saying even if he was a muslim which i dont think he is whats the big deal.
