Candide, don’t be an idiot. “Obama was born and raised a moslem” is not the same as “born and raised a communist because I am from the USSR”. For one, being registered a moslem and going to mosque was not a requirement in Indonesia – while it was required to become a member of the communist young league (as well as pioneers and octoberists) in the USSR at young age. Your membership in communist organizations was compulsory, and your parents could do nothing against it, no matter how much they resented it – unless they really wanted to screw up your life. Therefore, you could well be born and raised an anti-communist – and be a member of communist groups. If Obama’s parents indeed registered Obama as a moslem and put him in moslem classes and send him to the mosque, then indeed he would have beem born and raised a moslem.
Come on, stop spewing noncense. And don’t think you are the only one who was born in the USSR.
