(CNN) — Barack Obama’s campaign accused Hillary Clinton’s team Monday of circulating a photo of the Illinois senator donning traditional attire – clothing worn by area Muslims – as a goodwill gesture during an overseas trip.
In a statement, the Clinton campaign called the charge “an obvious and transparent attempt to distract” voters from serious issues – but did not issue a denial.
The picture, which appeared on the Drudge Report this morning, was attributed to sources within the Clinton campaign – although the Web site did not reveal how many, or who, might have received the photo.

However, Obama is right. American politicians have often donned the traditional dress of a country when visiting it as a sign of respect. Here are some examples:
Hillary and Chelsea wearing hijab
President Bush wearing a Saudi Robe
Mrs Bush learning to wear hijab
Speaker Pelosi wearing hijab
President Bush wearing a yarmulke
Former President Clinton wearing a yarmulke
Finally, please remember that Obama is a Christian
