My suggestion to Obama: forget Berlin, go to Mecca. ~Tony Campbell

If non-Muslims were allowed to enter Mecca, that would at least be possible, if not very desirable.  Of course, what this suggestion accomplishes is to link Obama’s “unique heritage” (as Campbell calls it) with a trip to Mecca, which is permitted only to Muslims.  Even if the Saudis were inclined to grant an exception, which they almost certainly wouldn’t be, in the eyes of a great many Americans going there would be like carrying around a placard saying, “Yes, I am a Muslim.”  The fewer people who try to help Obama with this sort of advice, the better off he will be.
