DETROIT June 18 - A young Muslim woman said she and another woman were refused seats directly behind Barack Obama — and in front of TV cameras — at a DETROIT rally because they wear head scarfs.
Two Muslim women attending Barrack Obama's rally in Detroit on Monday said they were barred by campaign volunteers from sitting directly behind the presidential candidate because they wear head scarfs. Spectators seated in that section, above, were shown on TV.

I was going to delete this post, but I'll leave it up as an example of how NOT to make your first post here.

Aside from being incredibly rude and annoying, this poster made all these links go to one place, the root of the site. While I commend this person for using contextual anchor tags, it is far better search engine wise to link deeper into your site.

What I mean is, if I were to spam other forums to get them to come to www.americanpoliticsforum.com or to build up inbound links for search engines, I would link not just to the root page ( www.americanpoliticsforum.com ) but also some other pages that are "deeper" in the site. Like this thread, for instance. ( www.americanpoliticsforum.com/muslim-wo ... t1950.html )


Now, if someone really wants to discuss this, they will have to start a new thread, because this one's getting locked.
