You have to understand that it's not just the candidates personal convictions, but also in how he/she is perceived by the population. While Obama may actually make a fine president, the general population would round him up with both racially biased black people and the "evil terrorist" Muslims. A government without the general people is nothing.

Allow me to introduce you to 70% of America. lol

Again, I'm not trying to come off as racist or religiously biased, but that is how the majority of the population responds whether we like it or not.
