Raised by two white people from Kansas = Muslim?

People continue to bring up Obama's religion and somehow fail to mention that he was raised by his grandparents, predominantly, during the years you would or could question his religion and his truly formed beliefs. You have to wonder if his plan for this next stretch of the race IS to start reminding people that his late childhood and teenage years were spent being raised by his grandparents, two white people from Kansas. Does that sound like the upbringing of a Muslim to you?

Who CARES what Obama was doing between birth and 10? I know nothing that I did during that period of my life caused any influence later, especially from faith standpoint.
