I don’t like that.” At this, about half a dozen people in line chimed in to correct her misapprehensions about Obama’s patriotism. “That’s just not the case, and you shouldn’t believe gossip about him being a Muslim, either,” said a woman wearing two Hillary buttons. Charles Johns, 68, added, “And even if he were Muslim, that’s no reason not to vote for him.”
