Since when, before Obama, did the American populas ever question a President's religion? Granted that it was probably a ploy by the republicans to try to give Obama a bad start as president, but why did choose relgion? Religion should not influence the government, instead the government should influence how the religion is practiced. Was that not the reason America was first established for, to give a person the right to practice a religion as long as it abided by the law? Now days, christians are putting stress on the government to stop the center in New York City, muslims citizens are said to not be as strictly enforced by the law because of their possible connection to people in the middle east. It might not seem like to you that nothing has changed, but it does to me.
