Presidential Debates...

I was at my parents tonight watching the Democratic debate. My grandmother was there. She completely hates Obama because he is a dirty Muslim. I know that she is several generations removed from me, and I can be very liberal, but I really think this is out of line.

As the family,we looked up his bio. He is not Muslim, was not raised Muslim and was married in a Christian church.

I think, although she will never admit it, that she is just as bothered by the fact that he is black as that he has a Muslim connection.

I find it funny, though. She thinks Hillary is just the bee's knees. She thinks that women should vote for women, platforms, experience or other factors be-damned. Women should vote for women. Period.
