Blacker Like Me: An Open Letter from Bill Clinton

Here by popular request is Julia Gorin performing "Blacker Like Me: An Open Letter from Bill Clinton" Funny stuff but on the money.

Julia makes an interesting point at the beginning of Part 1. That is, Barack Obama's mother was Jewish, therefore, by Jewish law he is Jewish. By an interesting twist of fate, his father was a Muslim, therefore by Islamic law he is Muslim. So not only is he half black and half white he's also half Jewish and half Muslim. However, he professes to be a Christian.

So I have to ask; How will he be perceived by the Jews of the world? How will he be perceived by the Christians of the world? And most importantly, how will he be perceived by the 1.5 billion Muslims in the world? The Jews and Christians probably don’t give a hoot, but a whole lot of Muslims will see him as an apostate, which if he becomes president would certainly complicate his relationships with Islamic countries.

Just sayin‘.
