...or maybe it's part of a larger problem... poll: 46% don't know Obama's christian

Nearly half of Americans (46%) are unable to correctly identify Barack Obama as a Christian including 13% who still maintain that he is a Muslim and another 16% who say they have heard different things about his religion. In addition, 11% say they don?t know because they have not heard enough about Obama?s religion. The percentage of voters continuing to say that Obama is a Muslim is largely unchanged from June (12%) and March (10%), when the controversy over Obama?s former pastor at Chicago?s Trinity United Church of Christ was fresh in many people?s minds. In the current survey, nearly one-in-five McCain supporters (19%) say that Obama is a Muslim, up from 14% in March. Fewer than one-in-ten Obama supporters (7%) identify him as a Muslim. More than three times as many white voters than African Americans see Obama as a Muslim (14% vs. 4%). Among white voters, 17% of those who have not completed college say Obama is a Muslim and 45% say he is a Christian. Among white college graduates, 7% say Obama is a Muslim while 69% say he is a Christian.

  • The level of intellectual?curiosity?of the average American makes me so, so sad. I think that's why Sarah Palin makes me so angry. She represents this lack of intellectual curiosity so thoroughly and the fact that people think she's a good choice for a potential POTUS is infuriating to me.?

  • The use of the term intellectual curiosity infuriates me.  Just say what you think (and by you, I mean generic you, not vt)---that you think she is intellectually inferior, aka not smart.  This description of her is what is dividing people this cycle, imo, and could backfire for Obama's supporters, imo.

  • Palin's not the one torching McCain ads, telling disabled people to get out of their wheelchairs, and proclaiming the end of coal plants in America. If Palin is intellectually incurious, Biden is intellectually vacant and two can play at this name calling game.?
