Mohamed, "The problem is not whether Obama was a Muslim" To you it may not be problem, but to the vast majority of USA citizens it is. Once he becomes President who knows what changes he may make, What his intentions would be towards Muslims countries ? How would he deal with regards to Israel? I would never want to see a Muslim as a President of the most powerful country like USA. Be he articulated or even brilliant mind. He may be ok for Pakistan or any muslim country, but NOT USA.
