His middle name is "Hussein," He's 1/2 black, and his father is a Muslim.
Does he stand a chance once this all becomes public knowledge?

I don't think that'll hurt his chances. I think his chances will be hurt by his lack of experience.
However, the Clinton-O'Bama pairing I think would be unbeatable.

Perhaps you were the last of 300,000,000 Americans to learn these things?
Think about it, one the best selling beers in the USA is Coors. The head of the Coors clan is called "Adolf", is that hurting sales?
The fact that he's "half-black" just means he's cuter than his pasty-white competitors.
And any Americans that still can't tell the difference between "muslim" and "terrorist" deserve everything they get...
My guess is that Clinton will be President and Obama will be Vice-President, and National Healthcare will become a reality, and that the economy will finally return to the way it was under that first "Clinton"....(remember budget surpluses? tax cuts for regular folks? and when the very worst thing thing the President did was get some head?)

Only if you're one of those people who believe that no one with an African name shouldn't be President. I have no problem with it. Hussein is a very popular name, with at least two different spellings & it can be used as a first or last name.

You'd think think that intelligent people would ignore the name to concentrate on the politics, but hey, look what the names Bush and Clinton are doing for two otherwise undistinguished people.

Only with narrow minded ignorant bigots. The last election proved that those kind of people are becoming a minority.

Morons will be put off knowing Obama's full name. They wouldn't vote for him anyway so they don't matter.

I'm sure people would try to use that against him, with no avail.
