I say about 10%. Though that number itself is way too high for the percentage of completely idiotic braindead fucking morons that exist, which one would have to be to believe Obama is a Muslim now, much less then.

I have to wonder at what low percentage we get a sizable number of people who are just jacking the surveyor around.

For instance, I bet a serious, extremely unpopular matter ("would you support banning the consumption of meat products"?) would poll worse than one with fewer supporters, but more absurdity ("would you support adding the McDonald's arches to the American flag?")

I wondr how popular my proposal of banning "fake emo" would poll, complete with the requirement that anyone with those retarded haircuts have their heads forcibly shaved.

     Same as now. Nobody's convincing people that clueless & they sure as hell aren't going to be convincing anyone else.

I agree what PiT has said. My family believes he's a muslim, and whenever I argue they cite specific evidence from Conservapedia. I myself think he is a closet Atheist.

Anyway, 15%.

Yeah, I suspect he uses religion as a tool, but is actually an atheist.

I really couldn't care less, though.

I doubt he's an atheist. I think he's probably somewhere between an agnostic and a believer, but he still finds the parables and the stories in the Bible inspiring and worthy of recognition.

And I'm sure he values the religious community.  Church is fun when you're black you get to sing and clap and stuff.

Alcon's right "Would you support resurrecting Hitler for scientific purposes" would get a fair number of respondents too.

More important: What percentage of people who don't believe it now, will believe it in 2012? Tongue

Maybe agnostic would have been better. The only claim I have is that he apparently doesn't listen in church, because he would have heard Reverend Wright's hateful sermons.

A lot more than in 2008 assuming Obama comes out mid-November of 2012 and takes the Oath on the Koran this time around

And quite rightly, too.

that's 1 in 5 white evangelicals, if it matters

I'd have a hard time as the interviewer to not ask "Really?  Really? "

If he were a Muslim, then he would be making major renovations of the White House to accommodate Islam. His daughters would dress differently. He would be using his influence to promote Islam and Islamic values (including prohibitions of pork and alcohol).

But what would I know about people who believe weird conspiracy theories, anyway?

The cremation would make that one a bit difficult.
