"Change We Can Believe In"

Two Muslim women who attended Barack Obama's event Monday in Detroit were told they couldn't stand behind the candidate, Politico reported. One was told her head covering was an issue, and another was told by an Obama volunteer that for political reasons they didn't want Muslims appearing with him on TV.

I find this disturbing, and I'm sure obama wasn't behind this. But, thats not to say that everyone does this. I'm sure mccain has too. Thats because america is not evolved enough to handle politics with a mature attitude.
