Recently we've heard accusations against Obama that he is Muslim, which I and everyone else knows is not true. Just another ploy being used by the far right to use scare tactics against the voting population. But what i don't understand is why its a tactic in the first place. I am currently contracted with the military in ROTC, will commission in a few years, and am also a proud Muslim American. My friends int he military trust me just as much as they would trust another brother/soldier and while I have no plans to ever get into politics i was wondering why I can die, and take the life of others, for my country. But I am not fit to represent its people simply because of the religion I believe in. Makes me think twice about who is that I am really fighting for...
