I read all of the policy positions of Barack Hussein Obama and I did not agree with any of them. Does this make me an Islamophobe even though he is not Muslim? Should I just keep quite so no one will accuse me of being an Islamophobe? Am I not allowed to speak my mind and maybe have a different opinion about how our nation should be governed?

No, his religion is irrelevant. I have legitimate concerns about Senator Obama. I cannot support a man that spoke out against the Patriot Act, only to vote in favor of reauthorizing the Patriot Act, that cannot pledge to have all troops out of Iraq by 2013, supported Bush's sanctions against Iran and co-sponsored a bill designating the Iranian National Guard a terrorists organization, that implied he'd invade Pakistan, that favors amnesty for illegal immigrants, that is for entitlement programs that will increase the deficit leaving the burden on taxpayers and that accepts contributions from influential lobbyists, corporations & special interest groups, while claiming he's the "anti-establishment" candidate.

Since you made up a new word (Islamophobe) i will make up a new word.
I am a Crappysenatoraphobe. Barack is a crappy senator thus i wont vote for him.
By your logic everyone must vote for Obama simply because of his name being Islamic, or maybe because of his skin color. If they dont they are racist right?

No. I'm opposed to Obama for president because I believe he is totally unqualified to be our president, especially at this very volatile time in our history. He's lacks the experience needed to right all the wrong that Bush guy has done to our country.

No, Barack has some good ideas but not much of an implementation plan. He is also way off base with other ideas. So I won't vote for him for those reasons.

I think many Americans are embracing "Islamophobia," due largely to the extremists that embrace violence and jihad as part of their interpretation of Islam.
As far As Obama goes, I think the majority of the dislike comes from his racist writings. A number of his early writings are clearly anti-white. Not a good think for the majority of American voters.
In addition, he's very liberal and does not appeal to moderate or conservative voters.

I wasn't aware most people were not aware that he's not Muslim. Do you think some proponents may like him simply because he's black? I just think people either like or don't like his ideas. Or they just agree more with another candidate.

Racism and Politics are bedfellowes and just like Racism, it's all about the money and a failing world system..I hope he is smart and drops out and let those that really are responsible take the blame for what they did do...
