Oh I do notknow muchabout him really, only what I see on the news. He sems like a nice guy and it would be great to see a balck president of the USA. But not being American it is not my call so I must not put my spoke in. As for Muslims I have met some great ones. A friend of mine won the Nobel Prize along with two others) for uniting two of the four fundemental forces of the physical universe, and he was both a Muslim and a mystic. I have met some grat Christians and all the othjer types. Atheists, Pageans, Witches (so called) et al. But, like people, you get the scum-bamgs in all groups. I have nothign aginsts most fundies but those who are fataticial and into terirism are another ball game, but they are a tiny minority. Most people simply want to live their live and bring their kids up happy and healthy. But I doubt if that guy could be worse than some past American Persidents; and the same applies to leaders of other nations too. One gets what one votes for alas. I personaly think that Ragan was the most dangerous git of all of them. I did quite like Bill Clinton actualy - despite his wild ways :- )
