A Muslim leader from Dearborn met privately with Sen. Barack Obama during his Wednesday visit to Michigan.

Imam Hassan Qazwini, head of the Islamic Center of America, said in an email that he met with Obama at Macomb Community College. A mosque spokesman, Eide Alawan, confirmed that the meeting took place. During the meeting, the two discussed the Presidential election, the Arab-Israeli conflict, and the Iraq war, according to Qazwini.

At the end of the meeting.... (continued)

I really don't believe that Obama is Muslim but if he is... who cares. There is no rule or law that the pres of the us has to be Christian.

Well since here (Michigan) has the largest population of Muslims outside of the ME .. I would say it was a good idea .. I mean they ARE voters . And if you want to win Michigan votes .. Your gonna need our HUGE Muslim population voting on your side...

But why use reason and logic right? Im sure he's just another terrorist...

In the words of Dick Cheney......so what?

Can a christian not meet a muslim any more?

Did anyone read the last paragrapgh where it said that Bush has also met this guy on several occasions? Does that make Bush a muslim?

Is it not better than Obama is seen to be meeting people of other religons, or would it be better just to stick to christians on his campaign?

Whatever the reasons behind it, all politicians are the same, they will meet whoever they need to in order to get the vote.

CX.

Can you get any more xenophobic?

None at all, because frankly I don't care. Instead of looking for ways to discredit his policies, you all more concerned with assassinating his character. It's sad really.

This guy becomes president you are all going to be wearing long bearrds and bhurkas!
and then you will be saying "so what?..what is wrong with a long beard and bhurkas?"

the American spirit has died...it died in the sixties. what a shame.

He met with him 'privately' and it has been avoided in the papers and MSM.
He wants to keep Americans in the dark about his private meetings and
his pandering to different groups.

No hope. No change. No unity.

Just another politician.

You mean he met PRIVATELY with a Muslim leader!!! That either means he's Muslim and wants to destroy America once he gets into the White House, OR he thought prejudicial people like yourself would think this would be too revealing.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA.

He MUST be Muslim, and therefore wanting to destroy the US!!!

People like you are helping to bring prejudice here on ATS to a whole new level. You're giving the rest of us a bad name.

Not a bad idea actually. I've already changed my name to Ibrahim Al Wazaab, so I guess the traditional garb wouldn't hurt either.

They're just a bunch of Chicken Littles who are scared of change is all. I wouldn't pay too much attention to them. When the change finally comes, it's going to hit them like a ton of bricks.

I'm guessing it died with the Civil Rights movement, huh?

I'd never vote for Obama because I don't think he is qualified or yet ready for the job. Having said that; why would it matter if he met with a Muslim leader and how would that prove he is Muslim?

Obama is a politician. He would probably meet with Hitler if Hitler would cut him a fat campaign contribution. Staunch conservative Bob Dole met with "degenerate" gangsta rapper Eazy-E. Eazy-E cut Dole a $100,000 check.

Proof of what? From your source:

Qazwini has also met several times with President Bush and other elected officials.

So he met with a religious leader in a time when we have religious issues in this country and at a time when we are fighting Muslims around the world. What does this prove to you? What does this prove to anybody?

Let me guess, "Obama is a stealth jihadist bent on the destruction of America". I guess by your logic this is proof that several elected members of our government are also stealth jihadists, or what about Bush? He met with the man, what does that prove about him?

This little witch hunt you people got going on here is just childish, paranoid, and sociopathic dribble. Your fear of a mans last name shows.

He MUST BE A MUSLIM Terrorist! His last name Rhymes with OSAMA!

Please. Grow up.

At least you're not falling for some of this BS reasons to not vote for Obama.

Of course, you do realize though, that I have to bring up your comment? Obama is much more experienced than Hillary in a few aspects, and McCain is a Bush clone, so which direction are you looking at?

This video sums it up. Fact by fact, and many of these facts were pointed out here on ATS.

Stop your whining and watch the video.

Obama's character inspection

What an incredibly one-sided, biased, movie you've posted. Is this where you get your voting information from?

They are only using the info to create an anti-Obama video, instead of the full story because it is made by a biased person.

This shows me the extent of your research, Jexnet. And it's really not much.

A Journalist from MSNBC asked Ted Kennedy if there would be an Obama/Clinton ticket in the November election. Ted Kennedy's reply was that Senator Clinton is too qualified to be Vice President.

There are many people who have not felt the same since the terrorist attack on 9/11/01. And no matter what my opinion or anyone else's opinion that is stated on this thread, all opinions count.

Senator Barack Obama has not been truthful and slips and slides in and out of whatever sounds better at the time. No doubt I'll hear comments like, oh like other politicians. Senator Obama is virtually unknown. His past is questionable and, in my opinion, to question his character, past associations, past legislative issues and current legislative issues as well as his loyalty to the United States is not unwarranted.

I can only go by what other members have said on other threads and, they have selected Senator Obama as their choice. However, he is not my choice and with what has been said on various threads I can't say that I've seen any convincing evidence or argument that Senator Obama should be elected President of the United States.

It has been mentioned on other threads of his ties to Kenya and his Muslim heritage and no doubt he would not deny them, as he could not deny Reverend Wright or his White Grandmother. I think it is offensive that Senator Obama can link most caucasions as "typical white people!" And at this point when a person runs for the highest office, comments he makes such as the one written above will not make anyone feel comfortable about Senator Obama in the Oval Office.

Anyway, I'm sure the next time I check this thread. I will see posts about other politicians being compared and the wrongs, etc. But what really has Senator Obama accomplished before running for President that makes him qualified for the highest position in the United States. What does he actually list on his resume before becoming Senator!?!?
