AP Poll: More Americans Believe Obama Is Jewish Rather Than Muslim

[WooWooWoo]

According to a new Associated Press survey, more Americans believe President Barack Obama is Jewish than believe that the president is a Muslim; while a plurality of the surveyed individuals believe he has “no religion.”

The survey, conducted using 1,071 random adults during the first week of September, asked, “Do you happen to know the religion of [Barack Obama]?”

The results were as follows:

Protestant — 28%
Catholic — 5%
Mormon — 0%
Jewish — 18%
Muslim — 10%
Other religion — 2%
No religion — 35%
Don’t know — 2%
Refused/Not Answered — 28%

Muslim.

13. So True!

I noticed that the winner in that poll was "no religion" . Far, far too many Americans just don't give a flying fig about being at all informed about their government or taking any interest in politics or issues.
