How will Barack Obama's upbringing by Muslim parents & training in a Muslim school impact his politics?
Barack Obama was trained in a Muslim school in Indonesia, his mother was Muslim-turned atheist, and his father and grandfather were Muslim. Barack is presently a member of the United Church of Christ. I am not aware of what was taught by Indonesian Muslim schools 30 years ago. Did they indoctrinate students in a similar manner we hear about Muslim schools today: promotion of Sharia Law and other values antithetical to American values? How will Barack's childhood and family experiences facilitate or obstruct his ability to defend and promote freedom of choice and religion as opposed to the doctrine of coercion and violence predominant in Muslim teaching today?

I do not trust Barack Hussein Obama with the presidency of America.

Do you really for one minute think he has a Muslim mindset? No basis for that whatsoever. Give him the benefit of the doubt rather than choose to think the worst of him.
3 :
Most likely, it will affect his public appeal. Especially from 9/11.

From the few articles I have read that cit him I get the impression that he is a very tolerant man. He studied American law, at Yale I believe, so his understanding of the American judicial system is strong. I also got the impression that most of his upbringing was by his American mother and his father had little influence. He was born and raised in Hawaii and looks beyond race at the individual. I feel he has a strong heart and truly cares about the people of America. Unfortunately he seems very similar to other politicians in one respect. He hasn't been good at conveying his platform to the masses. I would like to know more about what action he intends to take. And that goes for all candidates.

Nobody seems to know very much about him other than the fact that the media adores him. He could be genuine or a "Manchurian Candidate". I wouldn't vote for anyone has very limited experience and who only appeals to the media and left wing (or right wing).

Obama went to a Muslim school for two years, followed by a Catholic School for two years. After that he was enrolled in an acadamy in Hawaii. The fact that he had very limited exposure to Muslim education probably serves to make him a little more enlightened about Muslim culture and beliefs... as I'm sure his tenure at a Catholic school served to make him more sensitive to Christian beliefs.
