So how do we all tie this into a Muslim being president of the U.S?

Well, the "Terminator" is governor of California, so I guess anything is possible. Geek

I don't think a Muslim POTUS will happen in the near future though.
 
Gibbs, you're more the exception than the rule. While you may be more open minded than most non-Muslims I've come across there is so little chance that a Muslim candidate would actually win.
 
The first step would be a Muslim governor in a key electorial state like CA. Then, after a successful term Joe public may be more likely to vote Muslim in a presidential election.

Before there would be Muslim POTUS there would be a Jewish one first who have been the king makers lately!
The old rule of thumb was this position was cut out for the WASP only but JFK broke that rule; then got assassinated and now Obama who is biracial copy of the slick Willy is an exception after a W's mess...It is not the people who really matter, it is the Wall Street /corporate America who they want to run the show and they will prove that by campaign financing as they did in Obama's case; a 100% more money against McCain...And what are the chances for a Muslim being in that loop that is wholly owned and operated by the Jewish folks and AIPAC? slim to none! And to make things worse Muslims are scattered all over the States without any political machinery in place to name except may be Detroit area!
There have been one gov in Louisiana and one gov elect in SC both of Indian descent and both have given up their fathers' religions for Christianity so did Obama!
There is another case of Muslim President of Argentina Carlos Menem comes to mind who had to become a Catholic to get in, politics lets strange bedfellow in the palaces of power...What good it is to gain the world and loose the soul!

I think that is possible. As long as religious affiliation is not an issue and he can handle the responsibilities of being the president of the US.
