→Quotation is irrelevant: The wording is odd, and suggests that Obama is a Muslim but felt he could not say so publicly (yet).
I removed the quotation "Obama declared in prepared remarks, 'The United States has been enriched by Muslim Americans. Many other Americans have Muslims in their families or have lived in a Muslim-majority country - I know, because I am one of them.'" not because it is not sourced, but because it is simply irrelevant. Because it is undisputed that Obama lived in Indonesia, which is a Muslim-majority country, the statement is true '''regardless of Obama's religion'''. Therefore, it cannot possibly demonstrate that Obama is Muslim. [[User:GregG|GregG]] 20:30, 3 January 2013 (EST)

:The wording is odd, and suggests that Obama is a Muslim but felt he could not say so publicly (yet). When combined with other compelling evidence, it is relevant. It would be admissible under basic rules of evidence.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 20:32, 3 January 2013 (EST)
