Re “President Dismisses Faith Rumors” (news article, Aug. 30):

You report that “President Obama said on Sunday that he was not worried
that increasing and significant numbers of Americans believe he is
Muslim.”

I wait for the day—perhaps when my young grandchildren are adults?—that when an official of the United States government is “believed to
be” or “accused of being” Muslim, the response will be: “And?”
