Does Hillary Clinton Believe Barack Obama is a Muslim?

 When Hillary Clinton was asked on “60 Minutes” if she believed that Barack Obama was a Muslim this was her reply:

“Well of course not, there is no basis for that. I take him on the basis of what he says, and you know, there isn’t any reason to doubt that.”

 That was not exactly a staunch denial that she believes he is a Muslim. She basically said that if he says he is not a Muslim than she will take him at his word. She did not come right out and say that she believes he is not a Muslim. This answer was apperently not good enough so the reporter pressed her on her answer. He asked her again if she believed that Obama was a Muslim, she replied:

“No, no, why would I — there’s nothing to base that on — as far as I know,”

 Again she leaves the door open. As far as I know he isn’t a Muslim, but you never know is what she appears to be saying. She refuses to come right out and say no. Just look at that qualifier, “as far as I know”. This answer was worse than he first. She probably doesn’t believe he is a Muslim but she wants to leave that little lingering doubt in the back of the minds of voters.

 I find this so amusing I can’t even put it into words. The best part of this whole debate about Barack’s religion is the fact that Democrats are the ones being asked whether they believe Obama or not. Democrats are supposed to be so caring, and supportive of all beliefs and cultures, yet they are the ones being torn apart by this choice. If the Democrats, like Hillary, truly were all-caring they would just come out and say, “who cares what religion Obama is, we need to judge him on the issues”

 The Clinton’s are the ones who first played the race card in this election, now Hillary is unclear about whether she feels Obama is a Muslim. Hillary is showing America exactly the kind of person that she is. She is willing to throw a black man under the bus to gain power, she is willing to throw a religion under the bus to gain power. Why doesn’t she just come out and say that there is nothing wrong with Muslims and that it would be okay even if Obama was a Muslim? Why does she hide behind words that hint that Obama could be a Muslim? She hides behind these words because she feels that if she can leave a little doubt in the voter’s minds that maybe Obama is of the same religion as those that attacked us it could translate into votes for her. How sick is that? The fact that she is leaving doubt about Obama’s truthfulness reeks of racism.

 As I wrote earlier, I don’t think Hillary believes Obama is a Muslim, but I do believe that she thinks that if she can keep this doubt in the voter’s minds it may turn voters away from him. She is playing on racist and bigoted lines and hoping it will pay off for her.

 I just find it funny that she is relying on the bigoted hatred of the left to carry her to victory. The left has made this an election based on race and religion. And they call Republicans racist.
