President Barack Obama has said he is not concerned about the rumors of his place of birth, or faith in the online campaign to accuse the wrong information to his enemies Conservatives maintain the myth that he is a Muslim.
There's 'Network of wrong information that the new era of media can be thrown out there forever,' Obama said in an interview in New Orleans after marking the fifth anniversary of Hurricane Katrina. "If you spend all my time after, then do not get much done," he said, when asked why so many people were uncertain of something so fundamental to his faith. "I can not spend all my time on my birth certificate plastered on forehead."
'Facts are facts. We went through some of this during the campaign - there is a mechanism, a network of misinformation that in a new era of media can be churned out there all the time,' said, visibly angry Obama, referring to 'Birth', which includes questioning the existence or the validity of his Hawaiian birth certificate.
'I will always put my money on the American people, and I will not worry too much about what the rumors are there.' An astonishing 18 percent of Americans still identify Obama as a Muslim, according to a poll released earlier this month. Only one third identified Obama as Christian and 43 percent said they did not know his faith.
Obama also doubled down on its support for a mosque and community center is planned for a site two blocks north of Ground Zero, site of September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks in New York - and denied the reports that he tried to backtrack to support the controversial project. 'I do not back it all,' he said. 'I was very precise with my team ...
The base value and the principle that all Americans receive the same treatment does not change ... in (A White House Ramadan feast), I had American Muslims who had been in the fight against uniform in Iraq ... How can you tell them that their religious beliefs are less worthy of respect? ... It's something I feel very at heart.' He added: "I respect the feelings of the other side."
