Obama's America 2016 (Non-Fiction)(2012)
“Obama, as we have seen, is not a Muslim. Yet polls show that approximately one-fourth of Americans suspect him of being one.2 This is odd and requires explanation. Because I was born in India, people often presume I am either a doctor or a software guy. They are wrong, but they make that assumption because there are lots of Indian doctors and software guys in the United States. By the same token, Obama is not a Muslim, so why do so many people believe he is?
The surveys don’t tell us, but it’s ...probably because Obama seems so weirdly solicitous of Muslims and Muslim causes. One of Obama’s first actions as president was to retire the phrase “war on terror,” which he thought was too easily conflated with a war on Muslims. Obama took the position that America was simply battling an international criminal outfit called al-Qaeda whose members happened to be Muslim. Obama supported the construction of the Ground Zero mosque despite strong opposition from New Yorkers, especially Jews.MoreLess
