WASHINGTON (Feb. 25) - A photograph circulating on the Internet of Democratic Sen. Barack Obama dressed in traditional local garments during a visit to Kenya in 2006 is causing a dustup in the presidential campaign over what constitutes a smear.
American PoliticiansIn Traditional Garb

In a controversy over what may or may not be a smear tactic, campaign managers for Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are arguing over a photo of the Illinois senator that's making the Internet rounds. The picture of Obama, above, shows him wearing traditional garments in Wajir, Kenya, during his trip to his father's homeland in 2006.
The Associated Press photograph portrays Obama wearing a white turban and a wraparound white robe presented to him by elders in Wajir, in northeastern Kenya. Obama's estranged late father was Kenyan and Obama visited the country in 2006, attracting thousands of well-wishers.The gossip and news Web site The Drudge Report posted the photograph Monday and said it was being circulated by "Clinton staffers" and quoted an e-mail from an unidentified campaign aide. Drudge did not include proof of the e-mail in the report."I just want to make it very clear that we were not aware of it, the campaign didn't sanction it and don't know anything about it," Clinton spokesman Howard Wolfson said in a teleconference with reporters. "None of us have seen the e-mail in question. If anybody has independent reporting that they've done on it I would welcome it."

In an article on Aol.com Obama states that it was no big deal. The head turban was a gift like the Koran his father gave him. The same one he studied from in the school he went to in Wajir when he was a kid. He was tough to hate the USA and all other that didn’t belive in Islam. He is a realitivly new covert to Christianity.

Do you really want him a President of our country?
It’s bad enough we had eight years of moran who didn’t know how to run this country. We don’t need any simpleton in the White House . Things are to dangerious in World. We need someone with expreance!

WHO IS BARACK OBAMA

WHO IS BARACK OBAMA
Very interesting and something that should be considered in your choice. If you do not ever forward anything else, please forward this to all your contacts...this is very scary to think of what lies ahead of us here in our own United States...better heed this and pray about it and share it. We checked this out on 'snopes.com'. It is factual. Check for yourself. Who is Barack Obama? Probable U. S. presidential candidate, Barack Hussein Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, to Barack Hussein Obama, Sr., a black MUSLIM from Nyangoma-Kogel, Kenya and Ann Dunham, a white ATHEIST from Wichita, Kansas. Obama's parents met at the University of Hawaii. When Obama was two years old, his parents divorced. His father returned to Kenya. His mother then married Lolo Soetoro , a RADICAL Muslim from Indonesia.? When Obama was 6 years old, the family relocate to Indonesia. Obama attended a MUSLIM school in Jakarta. He also spent two years in a Catholic school. Obama takes great care to conceal the fact that he is a Muslim. He is quick to point out that, 'He was once a Muslim, but that he also attended Catholic school.'Obama's political handlers are attempting to make it appear that that he is not a radical. Obama's introduction to Islam came via his father, and that this influence was temporary at best. In reality, the senior Obama returned to Kenya soon after the divorce, and never again had any direct influence over his son's education. Lolo Soeto ro, the second husband of Obama's mother, Ann Dunham, introduced his stepson to Islam. Obama was enrolled in a Wahabi school in Jakarta. Wahabism is the RADICAL teaching that is followed by the Muslim terrorists who are now waging Jihad against the western world. Since it is politically expedient to be a CHRISTIAN when seeking major public office in the United States, Barack Hussein Obama has joined the United Church of Christ in an attempt to downplay his Muslim background. ALSO, keep in mind that when he was sworn into office he DID NOT use the Holy Bible, but instead the Koran. Barack Hussein Obama will NOT recite the Pledge of Allegiance nor will he show any reverence for our flag. While others place their hands over their hearts, Obama turns his back to the flag and slouches. Let us all remain alert concerning Obama's expected presidential candidacy. The Muslims have said they plan on destroying the US from the inside out, what better way to start than at the highest level - through the President of the United States, one of their own!!!!

This was sent to me in an email so I went on the internet and read other articles about this subject especially from CNN.
I don’t like Obama as president to begin with. He has no background in politics to get anything done. Whether we like it or not you have to know how to get around Capital hill. Look what we ended up with the last eight years.
Times are dangerous now and we need experience not a novas’. And we sure as hell do not need a Muslim in the White House. Obama Hessian should go back to his senate seat and learn what America Is all about. Freedom for all not for just one god, religion or race. I don’t fell safe around any person that comes from Asian or Arab countries.
I haven’t always felt this way, it’s just since 911. I find it hard to trust someone who may want to kill me.
I also think that the majority of the African American voters will vote for Obama just because he is black, not because he is the best person for the job. Again the religious right voted for Bush and look what happen. We as a country can’t afford that again.
It’s time we voted with logic not pure emotions. With our brains not our harts.
So go out and vote.
