They used to say that about a Catholic, a movie star, and most recently, 
a black man.  If you listen, you hear people talking about how religions 
are at the root of wars....Many have placed their hopes on BO not 
because of what he is, but because of his ideas.  Do you not think the 
same thing could happen to someone who claimed no belief in God.  I can 
see it happening as people tire of war after war.
