From Colin Powell’s endorsement of Obama

I’m also troubled by…what members of the party say, and is permitted to be said, such things as, ‘‘Well you know that Mr. Obama is a Muslim.’ Well, the correct answer is, ‘He is not a Muslim, he’s a Christian, he’s always been a Christian.’

But the really right answer is, ‘What if he is? Is there something wrong with being a Muslim in this country?’

Kareem Rashad Sultan Khan was born in New Jersey. Powell specifically mentioned this photo in his endorsement.
