Would I have to wear a burka? Or maybe a head scarf?
Would he pass out IED's to Islamic Militants?
Just exactly what are we supposed to be afraid of?

These are all red herrings, starting with the premise that Obama is
now a Muslim. We all know that he says he is not. And we all know that while he went to a public school for a few years in a predominantly Islamic nation and registered as a Muslim, he was probably not really a Muslim at heart. And just because his dad was a Muslim does not make Barack a Muslim.
However, after spending 20 years under the religious tutelage of a Black Liberation Theology pastor, I would suspect that Mr. Obama has some Black Liberation Theology leanings. That racist life philosophy could be worse for this nation than merely being a Muslim.
To address your question: I will speculate that with an Obama presidency we will move a little sooner to a more constrictive practice of political correctness that will erode some of the freedoms of speech, press, and expression we now take for granted. It will be increasingly difficult, for example, to express concern about terrorist threats or suspicious individuals. Minority religions like Islam will achieve much greater status through accommodation in the public square and will be granted more rights than Christianity is currently allowed. We will see what can be called a religious denominational version of affirmative action where "minority" religions are given preference. The implications can make your "tongue in cheek" examples seem trivial by comparison. Unfortunately, even without Barack as president, we will see this trend due to the bullying tactics of many Muslim organizations. He will just accelerate the accommodation.
