OBAMA AND ISLAM; the president’s quotes that will blow your mind…

Why would Americans fret over Obama speaking of Islam like he is a believer…? His name alone should leave no doubt as to his family background. Not only was he born a Muslim; he spent his childhood neither in USA nor Africa but in another Muslim country – Indonesia. When he took his oath as USA’s president; I was – dumbfounded. Never in my dream of dreams expected to live to see anyone bearing a Muslim name “Barak Hussein Obama” (truly mysterious are the ways of God) or any other Muslim name become USA’s president. Be the judge…
