I dunno... personally I'll be reviewing the candidates based on what their stances are regarding the issues.
Not who carries a rabbit's foot or whatever.
What does this sidetracking accomplish?

Great question. I think you answered your own question.
I think that Obama's own camp is fanning the flames for these side issues just for the reason you implied -they don't want Obama's stance on the issues scrutinized. Obama is far too liberal for main stream America, and by creating these side issues they can distract from his positions AND make Obama into the victim of racist smear campaigns.
According to Hinduism, Hanuman represents pure devotion, complete surrender and the absence of ego or the lower self. They believe that once one completely surrenders to the inner self and the mind becomes devoted completely, the mind can obtain miraculous powers and perform amazing feats like that of Hanuman.
In addition, it is thought by Hindus that whoever worships Hanuman is granted tremendous fortitude and strength.
