I think he is so much better than Bush, I remember him saying before he was appointed that he would close Guantanamo Bay detention centre due to the mistreatment of Muslims, I didn't think too much of it but surely enough he close the centre quickly mashAllah.
For me his a refreshing change from the evil George bush..

You think he is so much better than Bush? How is he any different than Bush? If I am not mistaken, the Defense Secretary I think is still Robert Gates, the same guy who was under Bush, so how is defense policy any different? Drone attacks started big time from his presidency and have only increased. He closed Guantanamo because I think it was costing US tax payers a lot. What about all the other secret prisons? He hasnt changed anything in the Patriot Act I dont think. They can still bug our phones and stuff without any warrant. He took army out of Iraq and has given contracts to Blackwater mercineries instead who are above any law. Plus look at Obamas cabinet, from day 1 it was loaded with top lobbyists though he had said, "Lobbyists wont find a job in my White House." What a liar, all his cabinet are big time lobbyists. His first and most important appointment was Rahm Israel Emmanuel remember? The guys middle name is Israel.

Bush was at least up front and honest, his intentions were always clear. Bush White House was loaded with neo-con fanatics and they made their feelings n thoughts known. He hated Muslims, he wanted to really get at Muslims and he did - he made it clearly known. This Hussain Obama guy, he is makhloot; to white people he says he is white, to blacks he says he is black, to Christians he says he is a devout Christian, to Muslims he says Adhaan is the best sound in the world, you have to be very careful of these makhloot people. When they are mixed up like that they are very dangerous.

He is a very smart individual, obviously, he is a constitutional lawyer, you have to be a genius for that. Why doesnt he ever speak without using teleprompter? He is very sharp, very smart calculated person. He will no doubt raise $1 billion dollars for the race. He will get 2nd term not because of his work but because he is a tool for every single big lobby out there. Bilderberger, Counsil on Foreign Relations, they all love him. Like his ustaad Kissinger said, Obama can be the guy to create a new world order.

We need a third party. Democrats and Republicans differ only on 3-4 issues and even those are minor differences. This is a monopoly. We need a third party in there. Ron Paul would have been good. That other guy, I dont even know his name, but he is very smart and would have been good. That other guy would also be good, I forget his name too. I am not a political person but I like to keep an eye on all things.

But anyways, as Muslims no matter where we are India, Pakistan, USA, we are like a soccer ball. We go to one side and get kicked from there so we go to the other side. We get kicked from there and back to the other side. I think in India we go from BJP to Congress and back. I am not familiar with Indian politics but I think Muslims are divided between those two parties. Never do Muslims think to have their own party.

ummm.... Guantanamo Bay is still open and still operating (indefinitely) and still where our brothers are being tortured. Obama did not keep his promise to close it.

Very good reply, thanks for the info. I now have a clearer view on Obama.

[Drugsonl]

people might think he is better than bush because in his time, he didnt start any war. But believe me, he would have start one long time ago if he hadnt to deal with the world economy crisis which he faced which was caused by america after 2 wars. The day when americas economy will become better, the next day we will hear cluster bombs are droppping from planes.

[Breeriacoirl]

the only difference between bush and obama I know is that former was white and present is black.

After learning alot of info from this post I looked into gauntanamo and war in Iraq etc...
I have to first say that I never looked into these topics, so was so shocked to see what was & still is happening there!
How is the Islamic world letting this happen, am I ignorant to ask this??... there has been and still is brothers locked up with no convictions, no court dates, no law to protect them. I understand that they're where some so called extremists caught at war with America, but alot of brothers just in the wrong place at the wrong time. And this is justified by calling them extremists or terrorists, but if the afghans or anyone else invaded America would it be ok for the afghans to label any American who fought back a terrorists or extremist?

It makes me so sad to think that the whole world just sits by while these Americans do what they want, treat muslims so badly & make there own rules. All this after orchestrating 9/11 themselves!
