What is the "race card" that Barrak Obama is purported to have played?

Question

Please can you tell me what religion is he....is he a Christian????

Answer 1

Yes, he is a Christian.  Lots of people think he is a Muslim, but that's incorrect.

The supposed "race card" is only an issue to the McCain camp.  He simply said that apparently they (the McCain folks who put together their last TV spot) think he is a celebrity because he has "a funny name and doesn't look like the presidents on the dollar bills."  That was it.  

Answer 2

He's a Christian. It was in the news that his old pastor (Christian terminology) was a terrorist supporter.

Answer 3

Basically yes - he is a member of the United Church of Christ.

Answer 4

he strongly hinted that people of color are not on any dollar bills.

Answer 5

i thought he was a muslim  

Answer 6

I think anyone not Christian, at least in name, would not get many votes in the USA.

The 'race card' is his African origins.  It becomes a race card when he plays it as part of his election campaign, to get the votes of other people of African origin.

The 'muslim' rumour is a lie, which came about because he was photographed in a traditional african Tuareg-style head dress.
