From what I have seen from the U.S. my guess is no. I mean Black and Atheist, you got to be kidding! If Bush had not been such an miserable failure, Obama as a black man would not have been elected.

probably yes, cause he was elected because of his charismatic speech and his politics, I guess he wouldn't be talking about his religion( or lack of it) all the time, and people would have to respect that.

Surveys show that atheists are less trusted than Muslims in this country.

True. Even true immediately after 9/11.

People really, really hate atheists.

That's insanity. Dark days are coming for those people, the number of atheists and agnostics are rising according to surveys.

Due to the circumstances, it would not have mattered what religion and which Democrat candidate was selected.

The fix was in. Obama would have been elected if he was red and had horns.
