Saleem alilikum is a greeting between Muslims, Christians don't use it, the first thing a Muslim will do is greet you in this way as a recognition signal in the Muslim world

I don't think Trump deserves a chance either but there isn't much people can do unless he gets impeached.

You surprise me paraclete. I gave you credit for much more intelligence than you are exhibiting here.
Yesterday, my Hindu friend greeted me. I replied with "namaste" while slightly bowing and clasping my hands together as if in prayer. It's a greeting that recognizes the divine in each other.
Did that make me a Hindu? No.
Watching that video and concluding from it that Obama is a Muslim is a reflection on your ability to react rationally. Your conclusion is nothing short of bizarre.
I'm sorry but some things have to be said even when they're very uncomfortable.

Wake up, thankfully his days are numbered

Hello again, Athos:
I listened as they called my President a Muslim.
I listened as they called him and his family a pack of monkeys.
I listened as they said he wasn't born here.
As you can see, it will NEVER change. That would be NEVER EVER..

Hello earl:
Oh, yes there is.. We can take to the streets.. Thunderous crowds CAN change political winds..
The Republicans in congress are AFRAID of Trump.. If they go up against him, he WILL destroy them, and they know it.. BUT, if they SEE that they have the people behind them, maybe they'll DO their job..

I dont think they know what their job is suppose to be. Even if you hold their hands they still wouldn't know what to do.

THe left is STILL giving Obama a chance 8 years later and he still hasn't done anything right or made anything better yet for any taxpaying person. Trump isn't even in office yet and he is already making a positive difference and they just can't stand that.

Don't be negative, he has had an effect on retaining employment, sure he needs to work harder but it is early days, we are at -10 right now, let's see where we are at +100, remember nothing is instant

What's this "WE" stuff, Aussie person? As usual you have no clue about the American Way of doing things, and as AMERICANS we have the RIGHT to be negative, LOUD, and oppositional to our political leaders. In short we don't have to wait, or give him a chance to do a darn thing before we jump in his crap!
He may be the duly elected leader of the pack, but he ain't the DICTATOR and we ain't his mindless subjects. Also his effect on employment remains to be seen, and as usual you make statements without facts, which are available, if you can get beyond your blatant racist tendencies.

I suggest the same for people who can't get over a breakup or a death or divorce...at a certain point its time they seek a mental health counselor, because the next election isn't for another 4 years and there is NOTHING they can do to change it.
The the more they yap..the more it appears to everyone else, they have a real problem that needs addressing and the less anyone really wants to hear it. Particularly since Trump hasn't even been sworn in yet, and they defended every stupid and illegal thing Obama or Hillary has done so they are hardly objective or unbiased.
This is why effectively nobody believes anything the lame stream media says. They were caught thanks to Wiki-leaks colluding with the DNC and pushing fake news day after day....to the point nobody even believes the weatherperson any more.
