The more reasonable solution, in my opinion, is that neither should be chastised for their religious associations unless they suggest that they will run this country as a theocracy.
But if you disagree with Obama's loyalty to his church, that's your business.

I agree and said so....so let the games begin....but they won't, the media is silent and it appears the double standard is being employed.
I am reminded of the scene in Lawrence of Arabia, where in Lawrence leads the arabs to take and sack Aqaba from the turks, but there is no gold as Lawrence had promised tayi if he joined him.......sherif Tayi played by anthony quinn upon discovering such tells sherif Ali ( omar shariff) his sppter. and true believer;
“he said there was gold here, there is no gold, he is not perfect”...
Obama is just another politician.
