Muslim women barred from picture at Obama event.

For this particular blog, I decided to write about a more sensitive topic regarding a pair of Muslim women showing up to one of Barack Obama's rallies. They were prevented from sitting behind the podium from the other volunteers which made a back drop during this rally in prevention of the television cameras showing their head scarves. Although the Obama campaign has apologized to these two women and have stated this is no indication of how they are planning on running the campaign in the ensuing months, I am sure they are still rattled by this.
This editorial entitled “Muslims barred from picture at Obama event” goes into great detail of analyzing this volatile move made by the volunteers. From the research I have done in the past on Barack Obama, I have found that his father was an atheist, his mother did not practice religion, but his step-father had been known to practicing religious ceremonies at a mosque on occasion during their stay in Indonesia during Barack's early childhood. In addition, Barack Obama is a member of United Church of Christ at Chicago. These facts are under debate throughout this reading as well. Many Obama opposer's are accusing Obama as being a Muslim. Moreover, some extremists have been accusing Barack Obama's potential presidency as being a extravagant Muslim plot against The United States of America. I personally find these extreme views hard to believe. With Obama's track record and the connections he has, I would find it almost impossible for these allegations to be true.
Even though Obama and his campaign crew have apologized for this discrimination, the two women naturally are not yet fully satisfied. They feel that this is a far bigger deal than what it has been made out to be. My question to you, the reader, was this a move that could be justified as the volunteers had with the climate of the world events going on today?
