    You're joking right?

    This could not possibly be a serious question.

    I was raised catholic and I don't have a saints name, what does that mean?????

    @Heaven J - because he used Barry when he was younger he was a schemer or was hiding something????

    MANY people have nick names that are shortened versions of their names, their last names or come to be because of something about them or something they are good at.

    That has got to be up there with the silliest comments I've heard yet.

    B. Hussein Obama was offered the chance to change his middle name . He declined saying that was his father name and he choose to keep it

    .

    He is proud of his heritage of being a Muslim and the church he attend in Chicago is of Muslim origin .

    Luis Farrakhan is a member of this church also.

    He is the leader of Islamic Muslim terrorits..

    Obama still believes in this church's heritage as well.

    He can say he is a christian all he wants but that different then this church's beliefs

    Guess if you belong to a Muslim church and have a Muslim name then you must be MUSLIM.

    Barak Obama has no idea what he is...

    His speeches are a bunch of nonsense words!

    Here is one for an example:

    "Change is never easy. Change is hard. Some change is harder than others. And easy change is never as easy as hard change, if only because hard change is hard. Changing the easy to the hard is harder than changing the hard to the easy.

    But if, ladies and gentlemen, you are looking for easy change done the hard way, then that hard change will not be easy, if only because change is hard, and harder change is much harder when it is hard than when it is easy. This is especially the case if you use the same way of changing results that ultimately result in change done the hard way. And that is why I am proposing hard change with a different approach that could ensure a different change than we've had in the past with the same approach only with different results with easy change than the hard change that we've had when change was, in fact, easy. Thank you very much."

    You may not have noticed it but Christianity started in the Middle East.

    And Jesus had a Jewish name.

    The same reason that most American's names don't sound like "Yeshua" (Which is what Jesus was called before we came along and anglicized it.).

    Because his parents choose his name and he likes it. What difference does it makes? If criminal Bush's name is George, he is still an evil liar, criminal and war criminal. Same goes for Adolf Hitler who was a Christian.
