Man how things can change. I went from needing a gun to my head to vote for Biden to Trump putting the gun of "herd immunity" to my head and forcing me to vote for Biden.

I find most American politicians underwhelming because of the financial interests they are often beholden to. I don't have any expectations for that to significantly change on the Republican and Democrat sides.

I am including other sources that you might find better:

Is Obama Muslim or Christian? – A fact-based answer

https://www.jpost.com/Blogs/Intellectua ... wer-416619

A goddamn blog with ignorant takes from the author:
The blog wrote:Obviously, he is formally a Muslim since his father was a Muslim. In order to stop being a Muslim, Obama had to convert officially to a different religion. However, there is no information on his conversion to Christianity.

Opinion duly discarded. Obama has described how he came to be a Christian.[1]

Barack Obama’s Support for the Muslim Brotherhood

https://circanada.com/2019/02/08/barack ... otherhood/

One of the sources the article used is Frank J. Gaffney, an anti-Muslim conspiracy theorist. Opinion discarded. [2]
PART 1 - THE EVIDENCE: Yes, Obama is a Secret Muslim

https://www.catholic.org/news/politics/ ... p?id=65915

"Obama attended a Muslim school" and "Obama's father and grandfather were Muslim", therefore "he's a Muslim". Opinion discarded. See [1] and [3].

Goodbye, Barack Hussein Obama: America's first 'Muslim president'

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfr ... -president


The article wrote:Nearly a third of Americans thought he was one of us. So why not claim it?

Well done.

It won't stop Freiheit from posting exactly the same nonsense again, as though he weren't aware that he is factually wrong. But it's always good for everyone else to see.

Kamala Harris: We will restore aid to Palestinians, renew ties

You mean these Palestinians?

Palestinian U. gate named after planner of Munich Olympics massacre
"We are proud of the distinguished leaders whose bodies are no more, but whose spirit remains among us.”

The Student Union Council at Palestine Polytechnic University recently gifted the school with a gate named after Salah Khalaf, known as “Abu Iyad” – the terrorist who was the Black September terror organization leader and who planned the Munich Olympics massacre, in which 11 Israeli athletes were murdered in 1972.
Palestinian Media Watch (PMW) reported that the university's Student Union Council chairman Saif Al-Muhtasib declared during the inauguration of the gate that “we have built this structure to commemorate the name of late Martyr Salah Khalaf ‘Abu Iyad.’ We are proud of the distinguished leaders whose bodies are no more, but whose spirit remains among us.”
On the gate of the university, reported PMW, are images of Khalaf and former PA chairman Yasser Arafat, under which is written in Arabic: “The fortress of Martyr Saleh Khalaf ‘Abu Iyad.’”
"To the left of the text," explained PMW, "is the logo of the Palestine Polytechnic University Student Union Council, which includes the PA map of “Palestine” that includes all of Israel in the colors of the Palestinian flag, indicating Palestinian sovereignty over the entire area."
"To the right is the logo of Palestine Polytechnic University’s Al-Aqsa Martyrs student group that is affiliated with Fatah," continued PMW. "This logo also includes the Palestinian Authority map of “Palestine,” as well as a raised fist at the top of the map."
"It is no surprise that the students at the Polytechnic admire terrorist Salah Khalaf," stated Palestinian Media Watch, "as the PA reveres the terrorists behind the Munich Olympics terror attack, and has named a school, and also a sport center, after Salah Khalaf."


The kinds of people who routinely idolize terrorists and believe Israel has no right to exist in any way, shape, or form? The kinds of people who have inflicted decades of mindless, terroristic violence, gaslighting, and broken promises on the people of Israel simply for the “crime” of existing and defending themselves, while they selfishly demand international respect, recognition, and sympathy without giving anything at all in return?

The kinds of people who mostly share the same faith, and therefore the same kinds of theocratic prejudices and impulses, as those who would behead a French schoolteacher for displaying cartoons of their beloved prophet in a middle school lesson about freedom of expression? The kinds of people who would take to the streets to protest the fact that a world leader dared defy their god and their prophet in response to terror attacks and beheadings committed in their religion's name while totally failing to condemn the murders and beheadings themselves?

You want to restore aid to these people? Really?

Donald Trump did literally everything right when it came to the Arab-Israeli conflict. I'd like to see Biden-Harris broker not one, not two, but three peace deals between Israel and the Arab world in a matter of months with even more countries waiting in the wings. I'd like to see Biden-Harris recognize the entirety of Jerusalem as Israel's capital and move the U.S. embassy there as Trump has done. No U.S. president has championed Zionism better than Donald J. Trump. His no-nonsense approach has worked miracles and made history.

Joe Biden has described Netanyahu as having moved "so, so far to the right". The President-elect's stated policy of failed, Obama-era appeasement would be a huge setback for peace in the Middle East were it to be realized. Tepid appeasement of Muslim theocrats who believe that the whole of historic Palestine (along with the rest of the world) belongs to Allah and Allah alone, and appeasement of genocidal antisemites and terrorists in the Middle East.

I am not a boomer; I am ashamed to state that I am a millennial.

Boomers are not all evil. They are older but one day we will also be older. I hate when younger people say 'OK Boomer' which is disrespectful. Not all Boomers are Trump fans, this is also a silly stereotype. My mother is a boomer and she hates Trump.

Conservapedia has links to their sources. The article I sent has many quotes from Obama's own book. Are you stating that he didn't make any of the quotes listed in conservapedia's sources? Also, I stated reasons that Obama MIGHT be a Muslim. I never insisted he was a Muslim.

However, it is clear that Biden and Obama both favor Palestine. It is sad anybody could support Palestine over Israel. Trump's support of Israel is one of his positive points and I am glad he did the right thing in moving the US embassy after so many years. Biden's win is bad for Israel.

A Biden Presidency Could Be Bad for Israel
