mLine 649:
Line 649: − == Arguments for Obama being a Muslim == − While there is enough proof to convince me Obama is a Muslim in the article, but some of these proofs are untrue or misused: − ''' − 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.''' − '' − Obama is saying that he is a person who has had "Muslims in their families or have lived in a Muslim-majority country" such as his father and Indonesia. not that he is one of those Muslims. That is my interpetation of this statement.'' − ''' − He has said that "Islam can be compatible with the modern world."''' − − ''I think that lots of things can be compatible with the modern world (like my Mac!) but does that make me a follower of the Mac necesarily?'' − ''' − Obama said the Muslim call to prayer is "one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at sunset," and recited "with a first-class Arabic accent" the opening lines: Allah is Supreme! ... I witness that there is no god but Allah ....''' − '' − I think that many Christian prayers are beautiful, and I'm Jewish!'' − − '''On the campaign trail, Obama was reading "The Post-American World" by Fareed Zakaria,[32] which is written from a Muslim point-of-view.[33]''' − − ''Fareed Zakaria is my favorite author and journalist,and is one of the best journalists in the world. I've read his book many times and I'm still not Muslim'' − − '''Obama enjoyed a bigger increase in voter support in 2008 (compared to 2004) by Muslims than by any other voting group, including blacks;[38] "Muslim turnout in the U.S. elections reached 95 percent, the highest Muslim turnout in U.S. history."[39]''' − '' − Similar things happened for Obama with Hispanics, and I think we all agree Obama is not Hispanic. Maybe Muslims were excited to finaly have a president with a Muslim backround after 8 years of Bush, who they didn't like at all.''

:That's the name he was sworn in under. He's not ashamed of his middle name, why are you? Fair and balanced is a news organization motto, adding a middle name to each President is not a requirement here. Though nobody is stopping you from additions.--[[User:Jpatt|Jpatt]] 23:19, 10 May 2009 (EDT)
