Barack Obama's Muslim Childhood---Response to Perelini

Submitted by Debbie (United States), Aug 18, 2008 at 11:11

Hello Perelini: I understand your strategy of an Obama-Clinton ticket. Hard to say who he will pick for VP, but don't think it will be Hill. I'm pretty sure Hillary wants to run in 2012 too. I know alot of people, women in particular that will not vote for Obama, because they want Hillary at the top of the ticket, or they won't vote. Jerome Corsi's book has alot of pretty big revelations in it, and they have been substantiated by documents. If Barack Obama was born to a muslim father, he is a Muslim, but may not be practicing Islam. I think he should have just said he was at the Muslim Basuki School, and a Catholic school in Indonesia, and was registered as Muslim then. Its background information, and then there wouldn't have been all this digging into his past.

Remember Lonesome Bill's problem. If he had just said in the beginning he had some hanky panky with Monica Lewinsky, and admitted it up front, while he was in the White house, he wouldn't have been impeached........ If he had been a private citizen, there would not have been all the legalities involved. Most of the time its not about the conduct, but its about lying about the conduct.......Its good to get things out in the open, when you're running for President. Admitting one's mistakes shows a desire to be honest and open. It can gain the publics respect.....

Thanks, Debbie
